ParknPool Offers Grill Cleaning And Safety Tips For Summer

Online, July 24, 2012 (Newswire.com) - ParknPool has established itself as a leader in online sales of outdoor furniture and recreation amenities. In that capacity, they have dedicated themselves to making all aspects of outdoor fun accessible and safe for their customers. As a way of continuing this type of service, the ParknPool Insider Scoop blog has put forth some helpful tips for grill safety and cleaning.

For cleaning the grill, ParknPool recommends hot, soapy water for the grill and any utensils. It's also a good idea to keep a container of hand sanitizer within reach. This will be a benefit when handling raw meat. They also suggest having a roll of paper towels nearby to clean up any spills. After the grilling and while the meat is resting is the best time to scrape off the char from the grills.

For families who are traveling to grilling spots, ParknPool reminds them to "keep it cool."

"If you will be traveling to the grill at your local state park or campground, always keep foods packed in coolers with a lot of ice. If possible, try to travel with your cooler of food in the air conditioned part of the car, instead of in a hot trunk or on a luggage rack," they write on the blog. "While enjoying the day, pay attention to how long perishable foods are left sitting out in the heat. It is best to pack things up right after eating to prevent snacking on spoiled foods."

Outdoor grillers should also be aware of cross-contamination. Raw meats should be kept separate from cooked meats. This holds true for serving plates and marinating brushes as well.

The other way that ParknPool helps its customers get ready for the summer is offering a large selection of patio and pool deck furniture at amazing prices.
