Big Green Egg All Natural Charcoal Starters – 24 cubes
November 8, 2017 - Comment
Our Fire Starters are made from sawdust and paraffin and are very effective for quickly and easily lighting lump charcoal without imparting a chemical taste. A box contains 24 cubes. The Electric Starter, if you prefer that method of lighting, will light the charcoal in about eight minutes.Directions:~Fill the fire box with lump charcoal to at least 1 inch above the air holes.~With the lid open, slide the draft door completely open.~Nestle 1 or 2 Big Green Egg Starters into the charcoal and light. After approximately 10 mins, or whenever several coals are burning, close the lid.~When the temperature gauge reaches the desired cooking temperature, reduce the airflow by adjusting the dual function metal top and draft door.** Do not hold Fire Starter in hand to light. Does not include box.

I then light the lump in 4 places which gets…
Nope – they work, but at the price per cube it gets expensive. Nope – they work, but at the price per cube it gets expensive. And they don’t work that great. Using 1 will EVENTUALLY get my large BGE coals going, but 2 or 3 are better and that is like $2.10 per fire at $.70 each ($16.89 for 24 count). Gonna settle on a different way to start my coals.
