Do you prefer cooking on the grill or using the oven?

tdbrower1969 @tdbrower1969 (1242) • United States 8 Oct 07

Which do you prefer to do with most of the meals you make, use the grill or the oven? We primarily use the grill to cook in the spring and the summer, and a lot of the time in the fall and the winter. I still like to cook my soups...
