9000 BBQ Accidents In America

Improved Essays
Spring is here and many of our friends and neighbors are pulling the outdoor cooking equipment out of storage. Before long, families and friends will gather round the fire-pit to enjoy s'mores and memories as the sun sinks below the horizon, and others are dreaming of loading up the outdoor grill with tender cuts of meat and garden-fresh veggies just begging for roasting. While most of these backyard parties result in plenty of laughs and thousands of share-worthy photos for social media, sadly almost 9000 BBQ accidents will bring tragedy and suffering to families every year in the United States.

This year, make sure your spring cookout is safe and enjoyable for everyone with these five tips from our Asheville Service Master team.
