What's your favorite thing to throw on the grill? 🍔 As you celebrate the long weekend with family and friends, don't let a backyard cookout turn into a fire emergency. Grilling sparks more than 10,000 home fires on average each year, so keep the good times going by following these important grilling safety precautions:

🔥 Always supervise a barbecue grill when in use. Don’t add charcoal starter fluid when coals have already been ignited.
🔥 Never grill indoors — not in the house, camper, tent or any enclosed area.
🔥 Make sure everyone, including pets, stays away from the grill.
🔥 Keep the grill out in the open, away from the house, deck, tree branches or anything that could catch fire.
🔥 Use the long-handled tools especially made for cooking on the grill to help keep the chef safe.

Happy and safe grilling!
