Thanksgiving Fire in South Beach?

Thanksgiving Day Blues
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), identifies Thanksgiving Day as the number one day of the year for home cooking fires. South Beach residents know they can rely on SERVPRO® of Miami Beach to safely clean and restore fire damage and we offer these tips from the NFPA for cooking safely this Thanksgiving:
- Stay in your home while the turkey is cooking and check on it frequently and never leave food cooking on the stovetop unattended, especially when frying and sautéing with oil.
- Use a timer to keep track of cooking times and check the stove or oven frequently.
- Consider putting timers in different rooms so you can hear them over music and party chatter.
- Keep things that can catch fire like oven mitts, wooden utensils, food wrappers, and towels well away (a minimum of three feet) from the cooking area.
- Push up shirt sleeves and avoid wearing billowy clothing that may come in contact with open flames or other heat sources.
- Avoid cooking when drinking alcohol, using other substances, or if you’re sleepy.
- Make sure children stay at least three feet away from all cooking areas, hot food, and liquids to avoid burns.
