Hi, can anyone tell me if it's safe to grill under a covered patio with 10 ft ceiling?
Thanks in advance.
-
The ceiling is painted wood.
-
And there is a ceiling fan above where I would put it.
-
Starting the chimney would be main concern. I've curled leaves on my maple tree.
-
Thanks, part of the patio is uncovered so I guess I could do it there and cook on that part but was thinking I could use those cube starters under cover when grilling when snows, rains or windy.
-
I personally just deal with the elements.
-
Appreciate your input TheDude.
-
Sounds like it would be just fine. Like Dude said, maybe just mind the chimney.

What Travis said. Don't put the grill close to any vinyl siding.

Crap, I did that with my first grill back in my early twenties. No fire luckily but warped the vinyl

Thanks again guys I have an aggregate patio and everything else is painted wood and brick.

Call your homeowners insurance agent and tell him what you want to do to see if you are covered for that kind of cooking.

Great point will do!!

+1. Getting a little wet won't hurt anything.

Or vinyl railings. Don't ask. :o

I'd say with proper ventilation and fire management, go for it.
Word of advice, just in case.....a standard Kitchen extinguisher would be a good idea...and like others said..light the chimney elsewhere, not covered.

I would add having some welding gloves, something heat resistant, in case you need to move a flaming kettle away from the house. And keep the lids on the kettles - don't walk away from an uncovered kettle.

I end up with melted foot prints in the snow. Got a electric charcoal starter free and I am going to try it on the windy days as for rain, well... Wyoming is not noted for that much of it.
