Finally, proof that the spring greens do change colour …. Stay warm out there.  8)

Yeah, but we're supposed to heat them up, not cool them down.

Did you cook anything at -18?

It's been that cold here for a week or so now and more to come, I've been wanting to grill but unsure how the kettle would react or how much more fuel I would need etc...

cold has very little effect in terms of fuel or kettles , however same can't be said for my body . use a lot more fuel running to and from the grill . amazing how fast your fingers can freeze at -32c with a -43c wind chill in spite of world class speeds loading and unloading the food lol. added bonus is watching the neighbors stare in disbelief loading your kettle in a pair of crocs touque and a hoodie . only once i didn't grill because it was too cold and regreted it after my first bite .it's not as bad as you think go for it !

The hardest part is getting the food off and inside before it gets cold. It doesn’t take long.

That frost adds a nice sparkle to the kettle! That brisket looks yummmyyy. What are those black gloves you're wearing handling the raw meat? I've seen it a lot recently.
Together we'll fight the long defeat.

They are disposable nitrile gloves I used them for home brewing also, nice and clean.
