She cooks inside, I cook outside. We're both good at it.

When I was married I did most of the cooking. My ex could cook but she just didn’t like to very often.

My wife and I change it up. There are some things I like making, and there are things she's really good at making. She loves my pancakes, and I love her beef stew. We're both doing more crockpot type stuff these days as a matter of convenience.

I don't cook at all. That's her job. I will grill steaks occasionally though. I do all dishes and clean the kitchen. That's my job.

I do most of the cooking in our house. Born and raised in Texas, but mom was from Louisiana and family background is mostly Louisiana. My wife is an OK cook, but grew up in East Tennessee and thought salt and pepper were the only seasonings created until we got together.

I cook most nights

steak night so it was easy for me tonight, but there is a few dishes that she likes to cook and they are pretty good.

I mostly make the mess and she cleans it up

You pretty much nailed how it is in our household. I love cooking. It’s my way of unwinding in the evening. A couple of drinks with a music playlist
or Jeopardy followed by the local news going in the background while I’m waiting on her and the girls to get home from work/school and extracurricular activities is where it’s at.

Saturdays are for the grill or the burner and cooking different things all day.

Wife cooks. Weve been together since highschool so I've never lived in my own and been forced to cook for myself.

I do almost all the cooking, I am also a much better cook than my fiancée. She's good at baking though just not much time to indulge that hobby right now.

Kids growing up plus me working and she cooked 90%. Kids grown and moved away and then it was 50/50. Now that I’m retired, she bakes a lot, cooks some. I grill often, handle the homemade pizza and am learning sourdough bread. We collaborate I would say.

Start cooking your own meals and you could retire several years earlier than you're currently on rack for.

I do a lot but I like to do it. Luckily my wife is a great cook and will make some awesome meals if I ask for them.

I do 99% of the cooking and cleanup which I enjoy. She does all the shopping which she enjoys. Every time she wants to cook it’s some soup or something she saw on Instagram or Facebook and I end up doing all the mise en place anyway- her knife skills are shite.

My wife can't really cook worth a shite, so I do 90% of the cooking.

We try to cook 5 nights a week. I probably cook 3 of those nights. My wife doesn’t mind cooking, but I actually enjoy cooking. My kids favorite meals are the ones I cook. I cook a lot of Asian dishes and grill. My kids love Asian food.
