Samantha Rux from OSF Healthcare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to give tips on keeping safe while grilling this summer. Grilling season is here, but safety should be on the menu alongside your favorite burgers. The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that both charcoal and gas grills come with hidden dangers, including fatal carbon monoxide poisoning and gas explosions. To reduce risk, never use charcoal indoors or store a grill with smoldering coals inside. For gas grills, always check for leaks every time you reconnect the propane tank, and keep all components in top condition. Use grills outdoors, away from buildings, and remember—never start a gas grill with the lid closed. Following these tips can help ensure your backyard barbecue stays safe and fun.
