Did you know that propane grills are a much healthier and more environmentally friendly way to cook your food?

Research shows that cooking on a charcoal grill can lead to as much as 105 times more carbon monoxide being produced when compared with propane.

Besides producing much fewer emissions, propane grills greatly reduce your exposure to carcinogens that end up in your food when grilling. Charcoal grills create more smoke and burn hotter, leading to the formation of toxins that have been linked to some cancers.

Here are tips to ensure that your grilled meat is the safest it can be:

• trim excess fat before cooking
• marinate your meat with rosemary (studies show that this significantly reduces toxins; marinades with garlic, onion and lemon juice are also recommended)
• flip the meat frequently when cooking

We wish you happy, safe and healthy outdoor cooking this year with your propane grill!
