NCP Blog: Summertime is Grilling Time!

We all know that summertime is the most popular time to fire up the grill!

 

Personally, I like to grill at all times of the year! Except maybe in the winter if the temps are too low, or there’s snow on the ground, at that point it might be too cold for me…and the grill!

 

Do you have a grill? If so, how often do you use it?

 

 

According to research by HPBA (2023 State of the Barbecue Industry), the most popular grilling days of the year continue to be:

 

– Fourth of July

– Memorial Day

– Father’s Day

– Labor Day

 

Fall and winter grilling has increased in recent years for these holidays and events:

 

– Thanksgiving

– Christmas or Hanukkah

– New Year’s Day

– Super Bowl

– Valentine’s Day

 

The top reasons for grilling have remain unchanged since the most recent study:

 

– For the flavor

– For the lifestyle

– For entertainment

– For the convenience

– >As a hobby
