I live in Wisconsin, and we grill out year round. A little cold and snow doesn't stop us! My husband just shovels a path to the grill!

We BBQ / grill as long as it stays above freezing.

I like to go camping. Outdoor cooking is part of camping. I especially like Dutch Oven cooking.

Unless it's raining or too windy to keep the pilot on, if I want a burger, it tastes better from the grill...outside.

I own my home and have a small outdoor grill, just never use it. My older (moved out kids) come over once in a while to use it but we eat inside cuz nobody likes to eat in hot weather and with bugs

Too much trouble to set up the grill, and all the rituals with it for someone who truly hates cooking anyway.

We don't have warm weather in Texas. We have hot weather and hotter weather. We stay inside under the A/C.

But eating outdoors is! We live in Florida and our patio, pool and backyard are beautiful. More and more we're moving away from meat and grilled food.

Used to be, but we haven't had a decent grill in a while. Maybe we'll get back into it.

If you mean someone who is kind, shares your values and with whom you get along without a lot of drama -- then, yes, soulmates exist.
