Grilling Safety Tips

Warmer weather means more time with friends and family! If you are planning a cookout, keep these tips in mind to avoid any accidents
 

• Keep your grill at least 10 feet from your home, railings, and overhanging branches.
• Make sure children and pets keep 3 feet away from your grilling area.
• If you’re using a propane grill, make sure the lid is open before lighting it.
• When using a charcoal grill, remember to use the correct lighter fluid.
• Don’t leave your grill unattended.
• If you smell gas while your cooking, turn off the grill and propane.
• When you’re finished grilling on propane, scrape off grease and fat buildup that’s left over in the trays below the grill
• Make sure the coals from your charcoal grill are completely out before disposing in a metal container.
