I grew up with my dad/uncles using lighter fluid. And so I’ve used it too. After a looong time lurking here and looking up grilling recipes etc decided to try the chimney (got it for $14 on Amazon).
It’s so easy! I put one tumble weed, lit it then put chimney on top. Not even 10-15 minutes later it’s ready to go. Cooked skirt steak, rib eyes and some shishkebobs.
I noticed coals retained heat longer too.

Welcome
And no chemical smell!
I just picked up a chimney myself, and can’t wait to try it out!
Yeah fuck lighter fluid no bueno
Next up- gonna cut the grates in half so I can fit chimney in along with bbq tools.
What is this, a chimney for ants?!
Also, y’all is a contraction of ‘you’ and ‘all’, gotta shift that apostrophe over one space to the left.
You are welcome! Its actually easier to use a tower than lighter fluid LOL
I don’t really argue with people who use fluid, I know it’s pointless, but when they see just the EFFICIENCY of a chimney they change their tune quick.
Welcome to the club homeskillet
There is zero reason to use lighter fluid in today’s world. I got down voted for saying don’t use lighter fluid just yesterday. I assume it’s from lazy people that don’t want to learn you can make fire without it
So easy! My mate thought I was some sort of fire-summoning wizard when I showed him how simple such a method is.
Empty charcoal bags and oak twigs to start my chimney
