In the Aisles of The Home Depot

With cooler weather approaching, it’s the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors and grill out with family and friends as well as practice fire safety.

We caught up with our friend Danny Watson from The Home Depot to let our viewers know about their great lineup of grills to use this fall!

Whether it’s a charcoal, gas or pellet grill, Home Depot has it.

Most people have heard of charcoal or gas grills, but what about that third option?

Pellet grills use wooden pellets and a combination of fans to heat food to a specific temperature. They’re almost like a convection oven, and this one does all the hard work for you!

It’s Fire Safety Month, so here’s a quick tip: position your grill at least 10 feet away from your home in case embers go flying. And keep a fire extinguisher near a grill in case there is ever a situation where you need it.

You can find all of these great products at The Home Depot, in-store or online!
