Here are some fire safety tips to keep in mind when grilling:
- For propane grills, thoroughly check for leaks before igniting the grill and keep the lid open while doing so.
- Avoid grease fires by cleaning the grill regularly.
- Don’t put flammable objects or structures near the grill.
- For charcoal grills, do not add starter fluid to an already lit fire.
- Never leave a lit grill unattended.
