It's like a non-stop smell of burning wood and charcoal.
They are either always grilling steaks, or burgers, or honestly... I don't know what.
But they are out there every single day cooking on the grill.
WTF?

Are they cleaning the grill after each use? That could be adding to the smell. Can you gently hint that the smell is coming into your house every night?

Well they wouldn’t be outside grilling if they lived here in the Midwest. It fucking 25 degrees here today. With flurries!

But the bigger question is WHO cooks on the grill every night?
It's bizarre.

Yum...make potato salad and invite yourself but byob. We cook out often in summer here because it keeps the kitchen from heating up

I grilled just last night. It was great weather. Too cold tonight though.temp just dropped 20.

The only neighbors I've had who grilled all the time were Mexicans. If the smell of outdoor grilling offends you, you sound like you are the problem, not your neighbors.

Sounds unhealthy to eat red, barbecued meat every night. I see cancer and cardiovascular diseases in their future.

Mexicans grill goats!
Bhaaaaa! 🤢

So do many, many other cultures. No family picnic was complete without taking the goat on the lead to the picnic spot. slitting its thread there, some prep. then boom onto the grill.
Ah good times.

It's the same at my place, but I do like the smell. And yet, for some reason, I eat less meat these days. It's almost like smelling it is enough for me, don't have to eat and taste it.

I had a neighbor years ago who did this, too. Sure enough, colorectal cancer and gone within a few years. People should know better by now.

[quote]If the smell of outdoor grilling offends you, you sound like you are the problem, not your neighbors.
R10, if the topic of a thread offends you, you sound like you are the problem, not the OP. - Was the insipid, priss-pot irony of your reply completely lost on you?
OP - I totally get being sick of that. And it's one of those things that would be hard to adjudicate. They aren't going to stop doing it, even if they're nice. The cops can't do anything about it, not really. You could give them three notices and then sue them in small claims court, but that won't go anywhere. But "little" problems like these can be tormenting. If these folks are next door, maybe invest in a large outdoor stand fan that can come on and help keep the smoke away. You could even get a remote outlet adaptor off Amazon so you don't even have to go out there, just hit a button. But then of course, ya got a big ol fan running or blocking your door. Maybe just figuring out what time they begin and starting to close all doors and windows at that point of the day. It's pretty much all you can do. Unless, of course, you want to turn the heat up a bit. In that case, I suggest an ample smoker or a BBQ grill that smokes. They're easy to pick up on. Get yourself some cheap cuts of beef and fire it up each morning or during times when you know they have their windows open. MAYBE, they'll get the message. Fire with fire and all that...

Get over yourself, R16. My mother died of cancer in her 60s. She was a vegetarian/vegan who didn't smoke and rarely drank alcohol, and fit/normal body weight her entire life. Just shut up.

I use my grill a lot, but it isn't always meat. Grilled vegetables are just so damned delicious. Plus I can cook side dishes on the side burner.
I'd rather cook outside when the weather is hot or if the food is going to be smelly or smoky.

You need to work on your anger issues, r18; r16 didn't say that [italic]all[/italic] cancer is caused by eating grilled meat. But you knew that, didn't you?

If it makes you feel better, they’ll likely die of cancer.

For nine years I lived next door to a man who used his barbecue almost every night. Extreme weather didn't bother him, he was outside all the time anyway to smoke cigarettes. He looked quite unhealthy but enjoyed himself.

People are increasingly dying of things like lung cancer due to environmental pollutants. You can do everything right your whole life. It might not matter .

It’s a very American thing to imagine that it’s bad to cook outside in winter. That’s a consequence of American sloth and laziness. Europeans love being outside in winter.

Could you talk to your neighbor about where the grill is located and redirecting the smoke? Otherwise, close the windows and keep an air purifier running on high.

Why are they grilling outside every night in the winter for fuck's sake? Heat up your house by cooking inside and turn down the thermostat.
I've got power drills going every day. The DIY neighbors are the worst.

Outer Redneckia, Maryland R39. My work is in one of the more "posh" counties and I had to go about 25 miles out to find a house I could afford. That was 20 years ago and prices have probably more than doubled now.
