Cooking with Propane Propane is the #1 choice of outdoor chefs. People love cooking with gas because it heats quickly, cooks food evenly and is easy to use. It's also clean burning and better for the environment than charcoal.
Here are some safety tips for outdoor cooking with propane gas grills and cylinders. Always use the grill outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Do not bring cylinders indoors or into an enclosed space, such as a garage. Always follow all of the manufacturer's instructions and keep written materials and manuals in a safe, accessible place. Before lighting your propane gas grill burner, use a leak protection solution to detect leaks. Never use matches or lighters to check for leaks. Always use or store cylinders in an upright, vertical position. Store them outdoors away from sources of ignition. When you have your cylinder refilled, have your supplier check for dents, damage, rust or leaks. After filling, take your cylinder home immediately. Keep your vehicle ventilated with the cylinder valve closed and plugged or capped. Do not leave your cylinder in the car. Make sure the grill burner controls are turned off and cooled before covering. When your grill is not in use, cover the disconnected hose-end &fittings and burner air intakes with small plastic bags, or obtain protective fitting caps from your propane supplier to keep out dirt, insects and moisture. If there is a significant and uncontrollable release of gas or a fire, call 9-1-1 immediately and move all people and pets away from the unit. Do not smoke while handling the propane cylinder. Do not allow children to tamper or play with the cylinder or grill.
