God! Those F-ing steaks are making my mouth water!

But I oughta write you up for using lighter fluid!

[Chef Matt]

Yeah they we're really good. Perfect medium rare. And yeah I don't have one of those starter things. It's on the list of things to get but it's really low on that list. Doesn't matter anyway. As long as you wait for your coals to ash you're good to go.

Yea as long as you wait it won't carry to much of a flavor but you got to get you a starter chimney! Once you use one you will never buy lighter fluid again Matt

Yeah, you buy a chimney starter for 10 bucks and it ends up saving you a boat load down the road because you no loner need any lighter fluid.

I promise you, if you use a Chimney, after a while, you will be able to notice when someone used lighter fluid.

It's funny how when I go to other BBQ's that my friends hosts, I can instantly taste that they use lighter fluid.

And honestly, I find it very fun to use a chimney. I don't know why.. but getting the fire started and then seeing the big puff of smoke (not that kind) rise through the top gets me giddy like a little kid.

I'm good with our gas grill now (the ease of use is great), but you guys make me want to go get a cheap charcoal grill to use sometimes...

I used to be the same way with Matchlight.



Why use a chimney when I can easily just throw a match into a pile of charcoal and go on my day of bbq. But the first time using a chimney, and tasting the steak, and the natural char on them.. got me hooked.
