If you store it indoors, how can you make delicious steaks in the snow?

I keep mine stored outside, on the deck, with a good cover on it. Haven't had a problem doing that. I've had the BBQ for 6 years now.

we use a natural gas BBQ as well and leave it outside for the winter. It still does the job

you should build a shelter for it. I'd say cedar is a good choice. Put some windows for ventilation, a heater, a couch, and a tv. It could become your man room. Put a lock on it, so the wife can't come inside. It's YOUR man room. Oh, and a beer fridge is necessary.
Or just leave it outside like the rest of us...although, I'm now thinking I need a man room for myself.

While I now know that winter BBQing with natural gas isn't nearly as good as with propane, I would leave it out as well with the cover on it.
Plus you never know when a Chinook is is going to blow in and allow you to "spring" BBQ in January.

Get a cover for it and you'll be fine. Also as others have said chinooks do come around making for great BBQ weather.

Although the original poster's BBQ is natural gas, and this won't apply, I don't recommend moving your propane BBQ into the garage and BBQ'ing there during the winter, even with the garage door open.
A neighbor here BBQ'ed in their garage, and unknown to them a tiny ember flew up into the rafters of the garage. He finished BBQ'ing, turned off the BBQ, went inside, and closed the garage door. The ember continued to smolder, until the kids opened the garage door after dinner, and the fresh air caused the whole thing to flare up.
As a result, the fire was intense enough to gut the home before the fire department got here; they spent the rest of the night protecting the neighboring homes while the BBQ'ers home burnt to the ground.
They moved, a new house was built on the foundation of the wrecked one, and a couple weeks later, a new family moved in....
and....
I walked by with my dog a few days later and saw the new guy BBQ'ing in his garage....
Thus the circle of stupidity was completed..
