Charcoal Chimneys
If you're a charcoal fanatic, please do NOT use lighter fluid to start it.
We suggest instead using the all natural method:
- All natural charcoal
- All natural fire starters
- Charcoal Chimney
- Super Cedar Fire Starter
Natural Charcoal: pure lump charcoal with no nasty additives (stay away from the perfectly shaped briquettes that contain petrochemicals for quick lighting)
Natural Fire Starters: made of pure wax and wood chips, looks like a little cupcake with a wick.
Super Cedar Fire Starters: Better than kindling! So easy to use- safe & clean. Super Cedar Firestarters even burn when soaked in water!
Charcoal Chimney: looks like a very large beer stein with a small grill recessed at the bottom.
Place lump charcoal inside chimney. Light fire starter and place on the charcoal grate of your barbecue. Place chimney on top of fire starter (the recessed area allow lots of room for the fire starter).
In approximately 10 - 15 minutes (same amount of time that it takes to pre-heat a gas grill), the charcoal will be white hot. The natural air currents cause the fire and heat from the fire starter to travel upward, catching the encased charcoal in a controlled and quick fashion.
You can grab the handle of the chimney, and carefully pour the hot embers onto the charcoal grill. You're ready to sizzle - safely and healthy.
