The 4th of July is almost here, can you believe it? If you’re like most renters in the Miami area, you probably intend on doing some grilling on the 4th of July because, there’s nothing better than grilling and hanging out with friends and family, while celebrating independence day right?

Although grilling is something that most people enjoy doing, the reality is that not everyone is an expert at operating a grill that’s why in this article, we will share with you several grilling safety tips that you can use to ensure that you have a safe Fourth of July.

Tip #1 – Always use the right tools

The most important tip that we can offer you is that we have for you is that when grilling outdoors you should always use the right tools. This means that you should be specifically using tools that are made for cooking outdoors instead of grabbing the next available tools that you have in your kitchen.

Grilling tools are made for cooking on an outdoor grill and are able to withstand the intense temperatures of a grill compared to the tools that you may be currently using within your kitchen on a daily basis so make sure that you’re ready to grill before getting started.

Tip #2 – Keep your grill away a safe distance away from your rental

Another important tip that you should remember when grilling outdoors is to always keep your grill a safe distance of at least 10 feet from your rental. This tip is important to follow because, on windy days it’s not uncommon for a grill to become a fire hazard so you want to make sure before you light your grill up, it’s far enough away from the rental property.

Besides keeping your grill far enough away from your rental property you should also make sure that it’s out of reach of the hands of little children or pets.

Tip #3 – Clean your grill and tools before using

Once you have your grill set up far enough away from your rental property you should next clean it before you actually start grilling. This is important to do because it may have been some time since you last used your grill and you want to ensure that it’s in sanitary condition before using it.

Tip #4 – Be mindful of who is around your grill at all times

Even though grilling it’s fun to do on the 4th of July, it’s also important that you keep in mind who is around your grill at all times.

Grilling can without a doubt be a fun way to spend a holiday but it can also end in tragedy if a child touches the grill so you should make sure that children and animals are away from your grill while it’s in use.
