Can your neighbor ask you to move your bbq grill because of the smoke that the wind is blowing into his home?

We live in California and we use our bbq grill on average once every two weeks. Neighbor complained of all the smoke that constantly is blowing into his property and is forced to close his windows because he almost "suffocates".

What are your thoughts on dealing with this dilemma…

Sure your neighbor can ask.
Advise him before you BBQ so he can close his doors and windows for a half hour.
Offer him a plate of your BBQ’d meats.

Of course he can. And you will cooperate because you don’t want to find out what other options he might exercise.

Feed him. That always helps.

Apparently you are doing something wrong, BBQ grills should not emit that much smoke !

Sure. This is America, and people can ask for whatever they want. Whether they get it, or not, is up in the air

Yes he can.
Do you want to kill the neighbor with the smoke? That is what it amounts too.

Maybe you can move your grill. It could be put on the opposite side of the house where his home is. It can be by your windows.
