Summer Grilling Safety Tips

Summer as we all know is our favorite time to break out the grill and enjoy the wonderful food with friends. Grilling is fun when hanging with friends or just cooking for your family, but it can be dangerous. Here are some grill safety tips that can be overlooked easily but can save you a catastrophe.

• Only use your grill outside and keep it at least 3 feet away from siding, deck rails and eaves.
• Always keep children and pets at least 3 feet away from your grill.
• Open your gas grill before lighting.
• Keep an eye on your grill and never walk away from it.
• Clean your grill after each use. This will remove grease that can start a fire.
• Place the coals from your grill in a metal can with a lid once they have cooled.
