Whether you live in a multi-family home or an apartment complex, the desire to grill during barbecue season is universal.

Gas grills are the most popular type of outdoor grill, offering convenience and quick heat-up times. Unlike charcoal grills, they don’t require as much preparation or clean-up. While some purists prefer the smoky flavor of charcoal, the difference isn’t always significant. Gas grills come with one to five burners and feature grates made from stainless steel, porcelain-coated steel, or iron. Top models like the PSG A-Series and T-Series are known for quality and performance. The A-Series is built with durable materials like permanent mold aluminum and commercial-grade stainless steel. Pricing varies based on BTU output and cooking surface size. The T-Series is designed for commercial use, featuring a 60-minute gas flow timer that automatically shuts off the gas if the grill is left unattended, enhancing safety. PSG also offers built-in options such as access doors, drawer storage, and beverage centers for added convenience. Apartment Grilling Safety Tips: If you live in an apartment, grilling can still be a fun and safe activity. California’s mild weather makes outdoor cooking especially appealing. However, it's important to follow local regulations. For example, the California Fire Code states that open flame devices cannot be used within 10 feet of structures or on combustible surfaces unless the area has automatic sprinklers. Many apartment complexes have community grills located in safe, shared spaces. Always keep your grill attended, especially when kids are around. If you need to step away, ask someone else to watch it. Gas grill fires often occur due to blockages in the fuel line. Property managers should regularly inspect grills for issues like leaks or insect infestations. When in doubt, turn off the gas and check the grill before using it again. Never overfill the propane tank—only fill it to 80% capacity. Keep the cylinder valve plugged when not in use. Always open the lid before lighting the grill to prevent gas buildup. Avoid leaning over the grill while cooking, and don’t overload it with food to prevent flare-ups. Seasoning Commercial Grills: Before using a new commercial grill, it’s essential to "season" it. This process helps remove contaminants and seals the pores for better heat distribution. To season, coat the grates and emitters with high-heat oil, wipe off excess, and heat the grill for 15 minutes until the oil smokes. Let it cool, then apply a thin layer of oil after each use to prevent rust. Selecting Meats for Grilling: Choosing the right meat is key to a great barbecue. Look for cuts that are deep red in color, with visible marbling (fat streaks) for flavor and tenderness. Thicker cuts (at least 1 inch) cook more evenly and retain moisture. Prime cuts are the highest quality, while choice cuts offer good value. Being BBQ Ready: To make the most of your community grill, ensure you have the right tools: tongs, spatula, meat fork, marinade brush, thermometer, and a carving board. Don't forget sauces, rubs, and marinades to enhance flavor. Grilling is a great way to connect with others, so take advantage of shared spaces and host a backyard barbecue!
