Of course you can grill veggies and alternatives, but grilling is such a meat culture.

      Same, but it’s usually a part of a family rather than the whole fam.

        Thing is, if you are vegan you still have quite some options when bbqing. Grilling is one of the more fun ways to spice it up. Especially when you start using spices!

    Considering BBQs are either a status symbol or a necessity that is dirt-cheap while also lasting quite long, I don’t think any non-premium company is in it for the sales. It’s a side business they do.

    Sure, high-end BBQs are a different thing. But they sell as part of furnishing a house, not as part of your diet.

    I’m grilling for my family all the time. All vegan. My son loves grilled corn, and there’s plenty of plant based burgers and hot dogs.

      Yeah. We do a lot of those for vegan family members and veg for all of us. I just wondered if it was trending down at all. We would probably have a smaller grill if we weren’t also cooking meat several times per week.

    The Hearth, Patio, and Bbq Assoc. said that in 2021, 70% of American homes (i know that’s not the world, but it’s where the study was) owned a grill. That’s up from 64% in 2019. So, no, not declining.
