Back of pack information

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND IN FULL BEFORE USE
We recommend you light your charcoal with Bar-Be-Quick Lighting Fluid, Gel or Firelighter Cubes and follow the instructions on the pack. Always place your barbecue on a flat, firm, non-flammable heat resistant surface.

Using Lighting Fluid or Gel
Pile the charcoal into a pyramid shape.
Cover generously with lighting fluid or gel.
After approximately 1 minute, light with a long match or taper.

Using Lighting Cubes
Place 2 or 3 cubes in the barbecue bowl or on the charcoal grid if supplied.
Pile the charcoal over the cubes in a pyramid shape, ensuring sufficient air space to allow to burn with a flame.
Light the cubes with a long match or taper.

Using a Chimney Starter
Place 2-3 lighting cubes or 3-4 sheets of scrumpled newspaper under the base of the chimney and fill the top with charcoal. Light the cubes or newspaper and wait approx 15-20 minutes

After approximately 15-20 minutes the charcoal will be covered in a fine grey ash. Position the charcoal carefully for your chosen cooking method. You are now ready to cook.

This charcoal can be topped up during use with small amounts of untreated lumpwood or briquettes as required.

You normally use around 0.50 – 0.75kg of charcoal per hour.
