One of the first things you might notice about condos is that they mostly do not allow grilling and other activities that may annoy other residents. Remember, you’re living in a joint space that has several units stacked one over the other and side by side so anything you do may affect your neighbors. That may be one of the things you’d just have to do without for grilling on the patio is out of the question and could get you a petition from your neighbors in no time. Try using those stove-top grillers that does not produce as much smoke. There are even ones that allow you to grill without direct flames where a cover placed above the flame sends the heat towards food cooking it as if it were grilled over the barbecue.
