My hubby is grill challenged-actually he's cooking challenged, period. He can tend to ribs/chops on the grill by basting them with sauce, turning them, etc, but he can't cook a meal by himself and he knows nothing about herbs and spices-the only seasonings he knows about are salt and pepper. He can't cook a meal and have it taste like something you'd want to eat. That, cleaning and laundry are the only areas in which he is challenged, however-he's excellent at everything else from fixing cars to building furniture and repairing plumbing.

LOL!!!!

I was just kiding with you - I'm lucky, my hubby is challenged in very few areas around the house or kitchen - and I'm the one that is grill challenged.................last time I tried to light it I lost the hair on my arms, my eyebrows and most of my eyelashes - I stay away from it.

It's too bad that he's cooking challenged. I'm not that fond of cooking really, but there's something truly gratifying about pulling a dozen fresh baked buns out of the oven, knowing you did everything except grind the grain (I'll be ordering a mill from these guys in the near future).
