This snuffs out the fire. Before i bbq next time, I shake the bbq of its ash and what remains are the old briquettes but about 1/3 to 1/2 of the original size. Before I lite my bbq with the chimney, i place new briquettes about 1/2 to 2/3 full and place these old briquettes ontop. They relite quickly. This saves briquettes and reduces waste in your ash pan.Dancancuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938700489697276805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15726800.post-13584069024376022772010-11-26T18:24:33.729-05:002010-11-26T18:24:33.729-05:00I've got a Charbroil version of the chimney I&...I've got a Charbroil version of the chimney I've been suing for many years. (I received it as a gift.) If I ever purchase a new one, I'll opt for the Weber design. I have to "flip" mine to dump it. I'd rather squeeze the handle to remove the coals.The BBQ Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08878089791775399855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15726800.post-87112071198959714402010-11-26T15:39:23.548-05:002010-11-26T15:39:23.548-05:00I have noticed that a Weber chimney (like the one ...I have noticed that a Weber chimney (like the one pictured) holds more coal and starts much faster than the generic ones sold at Lowe's.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14861482393432330011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15726800.post-85747814573138268882010-11-24T00:09:09.887-05:002010-11-24T00:09:09.887-05:00These smoke stack type of charcoal lighters are re...These smoke stack type of charcoal lighters are really quick..A few pieces of crumpled pieces of news paper under them and a match and off they go..I like using themJaydehttp://mybbqporkrecipe.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15726800.post-6807602512982070632010-11-22T22:25:43.536-05:002010-11-22T22:25:43.536-05:00agreed.
