Once the rain finally subsides and the sun is shining it will be time to clean off that grill and get some barbecues going in the back yard.

Nutrition and Wellness Educator with the U of I Extension Office in Christian County Lisa Peterson puts and emphasis on cleaning that grill thoroughly, saying if you do not you might not feel to well in the coming days.

Peterson wants to remind you of the importance of using a food thermometer to make sure that the meat is cooked all the way through, there are times where the burgers can look done when in fact they are not.

Peterson appeared as a guest on the Newstalk WTIM Morning Show.
