Grilling is one of the best ways to cook in the summer — it's quick, easy, and almost anything can be thrown on the grill to get that charred, smoky flavor and beautiful grill marks. Well, almost anything.

Grilling slipups and near disasters from flare-ups can happen to just about anyone, but the worst is when you set yourself up for disaster before even turning the grill on.
