Testosterone may be a contributing factor in why a man who cannot boil a pan of water without scorching the pan and the stove in the process suddenly wants to fill what’s pretty much a metal box or bucket with a grate in it with charred wood, pour a quart of a gasoline derivative all over, set it and himself on fire, and char various meats while still having those self-same meats be ice-cold on the inside. Then again, it just may be male pride telling him, Dammit, I’ll cook for my lady and offspring just to show them I can do more than make money for food, bills, and clothes.

Well the kitchen stove is like a station wagon… The grill on the patio is like a pickup truck. Get the analogy?

Good question i know with my ex wife i did more then 90% of the cooking outdoor or indoor but on the other hand she was useless in the kitchen so it,s kinda a toss up \ but as for why you never see women useing outdoor grill,s personally i think it,s a guy thing sound,s foolish but it,s true i don,t see why more men don,t learn to cook other then the grill nothing wrong with learning to cook male or female

Because you play around with the flowers and they have nothing but the boring “watering” job, or they seek attention. Is that something NEW or? My man can cook anything but he’s so smart he tells ME I am the BETTER cook. That way he’s ok and I don’t feel nervous when I slave away in the kitchen. I know if he complains, it’s gotta be really bad, because he doesn’t WANT to cook anymore, lol. So never any complaints. Take care.

There are no pots and pans to deal with. All they have to do is put the meat on the grill. Look manly and be the hero at the cookout. In the kitchen there is all kinds of cooking commotion going on

Two reasons:

1) most men who cant cook discovered that they can grill. Its hard to ruin a hamburger or hotdog and cooking most otehr thigns is as simple as placing it on the grill and turning it occasionally – its not rocket science

2)Its more fun to grill!!!!

And I am a man who cooks both indoors and outddors and prefer grilling any day of the week – its more fun and tastes better!!!!

Outdoor grilling is serious stuff – best left to professionals.
