Corky: When I saw the puffs of smoke, I knew it must be Jimbo barbecuing in the snow! Jimbo: Hi, Corky. Corky: It does smell wonderful... And I do love a burger fresh off the grill...but not enough to stand outside in the cold to cook one! Jimbo: A hot bowl of tomato soup with saltines is my idea of a perfect meal for a winters day! Jimbo: I have an extra burger if you want it, Corky. Corky: I just happen to have a plate! I like mine well done!

Years ago a major snowstorm knocked out power. Our section was the last one serviced; we were without power for about 3-4 days. My husband and I had a number of elderly neighbors. We put our grill outside and kept a steady supply of hot water (for instant coffee, tea or cocoa) and beef stew for our neighbors. It was greatly appreciated.

I’ve never grilled in freezing temperatures before. I thought the food wouldn’t get warm enough. Or maybe just it was an excuse to stay inside from the cold.

@K C…you’re a great neighbor. My section of my town used to lose power for days too and in the winter I would sometimes cook on the grill outside. I also had a kerosene heater for emergencies and the top of it made a great stove. I would fix breakfast on it including water for coffee and tea. They put us on a different grid so now we never lose power for more than a few hours but when you lose it for days, you learn to adapt. I don’t know if I’d do what Jimbo does though. Actually grilling with snow coming down. That actually would affect both the charcoal and the burgers.

We live close to the mountains and grill all year round. I have both gas and charcoal and believe me, there’s been a lot of times I’ve sent many thanks above for them, especially when we’ve lost power for days on end.

My daughter’s place, where I spent most of 2002 -2010 when the kids were teeny, is about twenty miles SSW of Johnsonville. Outside the Pig and other stores they’ll often have brat fries in gosh-awful below zero weather. People often carry on as usual in zero (or near) weather like they have good sense!

He’s grilling not barbequing. Barbeque is done low and slow with smoke.

Thank you, KC and Mr. KC.

Dad once made a covered grill out of an old pony keg: laid it on its side, cut it in half longways with vents at the top, added a hinge and a wooden handle, mounted it on a steel pole with a wheel drum (dunno if that’ the term, but it was a round and solid base). Voila! Summer burgers eaten indoors, cooked outside while it was 15 degrees. Sometimes they were even better than the summer burgers.
