There are two things we like to do when the weather is cold like now.
1.) Combination hot pot: Prepare anything you like, leaf greens, bean sprouts, tofu, meats, mashrooms, etc.

Or shabu-shabu as the Japanese call it. Use chicken or beef stock for the soup base, it's quicker. You can use any dipping sauce for the cooked stuff, this is our favorite:

2.) Do the same preparation as above but use a table top grill this time. Looks something like this:
