🗣️ You do not know how to bbq if you don’t know how to light the grill right! We’ve all been to a cookout with a cold grill or food that tastes like lighter fluid. 🫣
You don’t need special contraptions or a boy scout badge to get it right. Let me show you the can’t miss way to light a flaming hot grill every single time & it’s so easy for you to try! ♨️
Pro Tips‼️
✅ No, you do not need to start your coals in a chimney or with an electric rod. Stacking in a pyramid does the exact same thing with better results & less hassle.
✅ Using lighter fluid will not make your food taste like it. That only happens when you try to re-light cold coals by spraying lighter fluid over your grill grates.
✅ This grill lighting method will last hours, but to keep it going, just remove your grill grates, pour on another even layer of charcoal & get your grill on. But do not use anymore lighter fluid!
✅ Be patient & start early. Light your grill while you prep your meats, so by the time you’re ready to cook your grill is too!

Solid advice about the spread and reload. Lighter fluid or chimney is a matter of opinion and available tools.

Important to note what type or charcoal you have some charcoals ha e chemicals on the exterior so you have to wait till it’s white, don’t throw half and half in

That would be my suggestion with no lighter fluid at all. Just a few sheets of newspaper.

Dont forget to marinate your meat… In lighter fluid for that authentic bbq taste!👍

@@joshuacabe9766As long you let the lighter fluid burn off there's no aftertaste. People hear one thing and parrot it all over the internet.

That pyramid shit is so pointless 🤣 just spread the charcoal evenly as possible and light the coals Boom why spread after its hot 🙃

Bbq pitmaster here. Dont use briquettes. It’s full of fillers and oils. Use lump charcoal instead. And use quality lump like KJ big block, FOGO or jealous devil. Never use lighter fluid. Get a charcoal chimney and a couple of fire starter cubes and you’ll be burning in no time. And you want to arrange your coals based on what you’re cooking and factor in cooking chamber size.

Never fluid. Ever. Buy the chimney for 10 bucks, rip a piece of the bag off and light it. Rookie stuff man

@ytvel4273 see, all these folks talking about tasting lighter fluid in their food, they the ones that don't know how to BBQ! I have been around some damn good BBQ'rs never had the displeasure of any of my foods tasting like lighter fluid, just the 🔥 a$$ seasonings! Dang Skippy there is nothing wrong with the old school way.

Why would you pay extra money just to cook with chemicals when you can make a one-time purchase on a chimney and never have to worry about that mess again? Ya'll need to step up ya game

Wrong. You start a normal fire with wood and paper and put the coal on top of it. Wait 10 minutes and you’re ready to cook.

No lighter fluid at all use a torch to start your charcoal or put 2 pieces of charcoal on your stove let them turn white and put them inside your charcoal
