A great book on safety tips is authored by Patrick Neely, co-host of Food Network’s “Down Home with the Neely”. Tip #1: use long tongs and use wood chips if you plan to smoke your mean. With long tongs you can reach over into your grill and really flip the meat. With short longs or a fork there is more potential of burning yourself. Tip #2: remember is to keep young children and animals at least 10 feet away from the grill. Tip #3: keep the coals hot and the flame low. If you're adding wood chips, he recommends soaking them in water for an hour before putting them on the flame. That way, they tamper out any active flames and give off a rich smoke that flavors the meat. Tip #4: keep the coals hot and the flame low. If you're adding wood chips, he recommends soaking them in water for an hour before putting them on the flame. That way, they tamper out any active flames and give off a rich smoke that flavors the meat.
"Try and do as much as you can prior to your party," Neely says. "When you're having a barbecue guests don't want to see you working and sweating at the grill. You want to kick back and have a good time and have everyone enjoying the atmosphere."
While safety is important, sometimes it can be best fostered by good preparation so that you're free to enjoy your food and your guests without jeopardizing safety while rushing to do too many things at once.
