Backyard barbecues are great for creating tasty food. But grills can be dangerous. Consider these safety tips to keep your barbecuing safe and fun.
Keep barbecue grills on a level surface away from the house, garage, landscaping and children.
Wear a heavy apron and use a long-armed oven mitt to protect yourself.
Let the coals cool completely before disposing of them in a metal container.
Remember that grills remain hot long after you are through barbecuing.
Never use gasoline or kerosene as a fire starter in your grill.
