How to grill by Steven Raichlen 
Once you have your grill assembled, the next thing to decide is where to put it.  A grill puts out a lot of heat, so you should position it several feet away from the side of the house or any plants or shrubbery.  You'll have an easier time with a spot that is sheltered from the wind.  When positioning a grill on a wooden deck, remember that sparks and live embers can fall from a charcoal grill.
