As the coals from our barbecue burned down, our hosts passed out marshmallows and long roasting forks.

Just then, two fire trucks roared by, sirens blaring, lights flashing. They stopped at a house right down the block.

All twelve of us raced out of the back yard, down the street, where we found the owners of the blazing house standing by helplessly.

They glared at us with looks of disgust.

Suddenly, we realized why………we were all still holding our roasting forks with marshmallows on them…

On a more serious note, most solid surfaces will be fine, as most of the heat will be directed upward. Just make sure you aren't setting your awning on fire... :)

Ha, ha. Long ago, I used to call out,
“ Honey, move the Weber away from the house’s eaves!”

Had to restrain myself from LOL and waking my wife - that mental image was just too much!!

Now that is both sad and funny. I can just see you looking bewildered as the victims glared at you with looks of disgust, and your enlightenment as your eyes rested upon your roasting forks with marshmallows on them!
