| Safe Grilling Tips |
|
Food cooked outdoors, the way it was intended.
As a true BBQ zen master, you love being outdoors in front of the grill. Regardless of teh season, you find a way to keep that grill fired up. As wonderful as grilling is, take special precautions when entertaining: practice safe grilling. |
| Thoroughly inspect burner and gas supply tubes for blockages like spider webs, grease build-up and rust. Check gas hoses for worn or frayed rubber, and replace if necessary. |

| Make a soap solution by mixing one part water with one part liquid detergent to check if there are any gas leakages. Turn on the gas supply and apply the mixture to gas pipe connections. If soap bubbles appear, you have a leak - repair it before using the grill. |
| Inspect rock grids and cooking grids for rust and signs of heavy wear. Replace lava rocks once every season or more frequently if grease build-up is an issue. |
| If you didn't thoroughly clean the grill at the end of last summer, spend some scouring time soon. Soak the main grills, racks, and burner cover in warm, soapy water for about an hour, then use a spatula or sturdy brush to scrape off food particles and grease. Use a wet/dry shop vac to remove additional debris. |
