Grilling season is here… well, does it ever really end for some of us in the Midwest? šŸŒ­šŸ”„

If you’re firing up the grill for the first time this weekend, keep these important safety tips in mind:
• Check propane gas lines and connections for leaks before lighting up
• Keep grills away from siding, decks, and anything flammable
• Never leave a hot grill unattended
• Clean grease and fat buildup to help prevent flare-ups
• Keep kids and pets a safe distance away from the grill area

Cheers to a great summer filled with good food, great company, and a season free from accidental fires! šŸ”ā˜€ļø
