I tend to cook just as much, if not more, when it heats up. Family activities tends to drive my cooking frequency more than anything.

Yes, it tends to slow down a little for me, although I did just cook for the marching band this past Friday: 100+ students this year plus staff. Three whole pork shoulders (48.5 lbs), plus Mac-N-Cheese & Sour Cream & Onion Mashed Potatoes with cheese & bacon (both homemade of course).
Certain types of smoking slow way-y-y-y down for me during warm weather. Things like Bacon, ham, smoked sausage, etc. are better to make in cooler weather when it's a little easier to control temps and get a longer smoke.

After a very long 9 months of being without a smoker, I now have one again. I love cooking year round,

Sadly with temps over 110 Minnie the MAK is not getting as much cook time as we would like. I have braved it a few times, but trying to do it early morning, which means weekends only.

My loves it when I cook on a hot day. It's keeps the house nice and cool and keeps me out of her way.

I can't say that we cook outside anymore or less but the beers seem to disappear a lot faster!

It don't slow me down at all but I don't spend much time hanging around outside..it's check it and back into the air conditioning! Up till this week illinois has experienced the mildest summer and perfect temps I can remember. But It's not just hot today...it's Africa Hot!!
