Fire Up The Barbeque



The warmer weather allows me to open up the windows and doors and grill outside. By grilling outside, you are not adding additional heat to the inside of the home, which you may be trying to air condition.

When it comes to grilling, there are some green grilling tips and ideas to consider. The lowest impact grilling option is propane, gas or electric. If you cherish your charcoal grill, consider the sustainable charcoal option that is available. When you are shopping for the shish kabob makings, consider purchasing organic meat and veggies.

Did you know there is such a thing as hybrid grills? You can choose the energy source used to fire up the grill.

I’m enjoying the start to summer and my Memorial Day picnics. What green practices are you implementing this holiday weekend?
