How Often Do You Cook Dinner at Home?

Posted by Bruce Bilmes and Sue Boyle , May 19, 2008 13:36

Roadfood.com users love to eat out, of course, but they apparently also enjoy cooking at home, according to the most recent Roadfood poll. Almost 9 in 10 cook dinner at home at least 3 times a week, and over half prepare dinner five or more times per week.

I would probably eat at home a lot less if I could find more Roadfood nearby my house.

I "cook" about once a month. Wish there was a "once a month" category in your poll.

I am a big "reheater". I reheat take out in the toaster oven.
Cheesesteaks, chicken francaise, even prime rib...

Actually, my answer depends on what one calls "cooking." I'm the one who puts something edible on the table almost every night; but it might be anything from leftovers to "breakfast" to unremarkable hot dogs in Bush's Best baked beans. I don't call those things "cooking." "Cooking" is when I take the time (and expend the effort) to prepare something, be it a home-made sauce for pasta, a charcoal-grilled steak, or a smoked butt or brisket. If I hold to that definition, I probably average two or at most three dinners a week.
