Ready the Deck or Patio for Barbecue Season

Every grill master needs a great place to cookout. Whether you’ve got a giant deck or cozy patio, you can create the perfect gathering place to enjoy great food and fellowship. Follow these tips to make sure your back yard is picture-perfect for barbecue parties:

 Tidy Up the Yard. A little TLC goes a long way. Cut and treat your grass for healthy growth as it recovers from the winter. Prune your bushes and shrubs to the perfect shape and spruce the garden up with fresh mulch. You want your guests outside as long as possible – enjoying the warmth of the weather and the smells of your barbecue masterpiece.

• Check The Deck or Patio for Winter Damage. Winter can be hard on decks and patios. Check for any loose or damaged boards or signs of cracking. Make sure no critters got into the soffit on your porch or overhang and that your outdoor grilling area is ready for guests!

• Up Your Outdoor Furniture Game. Ditch the folding sports loungers for sturdy outdoor chairs and table space that turns your grilling area into an outdoor dining room! Grab a long table with bench seating and an umbrella to provide some shade. Set out gliding rockers on the porch or patio for people to enjoy while they’re waiting on your barbecue masterpiece. Create a comfortable, inviting space for your guests to enjoy the weather and anticipate the fine food cooking up on your grill!

• Build a Back Yard Paradise. Why stop at upgraded patio or deck furniture? Build out a fire pit for roasted marshmallows and campfire favorites, erect a gazebo for a dreamy outdoor dining experience and link it all together with a whimsical paving stone path. Turn your backyard into a paradise that keeps your family and friends coming back outside to enjoy the perfect barbecue weather!
