A friend melted a bunch of vinyl siding off his house with an out of control
grill. I use a high quality Weber gas grill on a wood deck. It is designed
to be used closed to keep the hot air in. Would be pretty hard to burn
anything down with it.

You know those outdoor firepits you put wood in and have screens like
fireplace screens? Well, they say to not use on a wood deck.

They "say" that trying to keep from getting sued by dingbats who burn
down their houses starting with a deck fire.

Personally, I would not charcoal or gas barbeque on a wood deck, but
many people do. (I have a raised stone patio; gravel fill inside
timber crib, just for the grill, but many people would have just had a
deck there.)

You wanna do it, go ahead, its your deck. And if it catches fire,
don't come running to us. You were warned.
