Grilling Safety

Grilling is always a good time. It's even better when you do it safely.

Since the beginning of man people have cooked over fire. Unlike early civilizations we have modern day advances when it come to grilling. Despite these advances accidents still happen. In this blog I will be giving you a few examples on way to grill safely.

All grills (charcoal and propane) must be placed a minimum of 10ft. from any building.  The further the better.

• Tame the flame. Only use starter fluids designed for barbecue grills: do not add fluid after coals are lit.
• Be mindful of where the smoke from your grill is going.  You might have to adjust the location of a grill depending on the wind conditions.
• Clean your grill.  Grease and other gunk can catch fire inside your grill if you let it build up.
• Keep children and pets away! Always keep a close eye on your grill when cooking 
• Do not grill indoors or in your garage.
• Do not put you grill in a garage while it was still hot.  Charcoal grills can stay hot enough to start a fire for hours after you are done cooking

Let’s all do our part to keep this grilling season a safe one!
