how about a poll?   I am 3 times a week.  Wish it was more. 

One of those is usually weekend bacon.   One chicken thighs.   One tri tip or reverse sear.    Longer pork shoulder, chuck roast are few and far between.   Actually been a few years since I did a full packer brisket. 

Up next, bacon tomorrow, Turkey breast Tuesday.    Cold smoker today here as well :(

Due to certain mobility issues access to my smoker has been limited. Project this year is to move it right outside my door so my usage will then increase to weekly one or two times.

It varies. There are times where I cook 3-4 times a week. But I sure wish it was more

I cook a few times a week. It's pretty sad actually, to see a FEC 120 running with one butt or one slab of riibs.

Pot pies taste great out of the smoker!

I use the grill at least once a week and usually on weekends. Winter is actually the best time for me to use it as the rest of the year my work load is 6 days/wk. I can squeeze more cooks in, it just requires a lot more thought and planning which makes it not nearly as fun. My time here, sadly, will probable mirror that.

My wife guessed prox 4 times a week. You don’t have to ask twice to fire it up. Love being outside plus we have very mild winters in AZ...

Probably 3 or 4 times a week. Mostly fast stuff, fish, chicken breast, sausage, pork chops, and such.
