Yup. I did learn something new. I have bought a chimney starter, having seen them being used, but had not had the opportunity to closely observe the technique. You've made it look simple. Thanks for that. All I need is some decent weather now (which, in summer in Northern Ireland, is as rare as hens' teeth).

I’m 60 years old and consider myself a fairly good cook, with age I’ve learned you don’t know everything, your video showed me to put the burgers on frozen and I’ve never seen that, thank you I will be trying it. And also you made burgers for someone else, this is the first time ( I’ve watched 100’s of hours of cooking ) where someone made a food to what someone else likes, they always make it there way. Thank you as my wife and I are also different ( opposite yours I’m the well done ) couple.

My preferred way is to put the fire starter cubes in the bottom of the actual chimney and 1 in the middle of the coals this actually gets the fire all the wat through the chimney. But the way you do it is as good as any.

No one should be advocating using paper to light the chimney starter. I made that mistake. The embers flew everywhere. I would say it should be illegal to use paper. I'm going to get the lighter cubes next time. So many on social media recommending paper but it's a horrible idea.
@jeffdriver30003 ай бұрын
I have a weber natural gas BBQ and I use the same meat. I use high heat to get a good seer. When I put the meat on the BBQ I toast my buns at the same time. When the buns are toasted I turn the meat a 1/4 turn to get cross grill marks on both sides. I take the buns in and add my condiments on them then go out and turn the meat over.

What is the advantage of inverting the chimney to light a small amount of coals?
@hammysbbq4 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! Are you familiar with the snake method with briquettes for low and slow cooks? If not, check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKu9nZKLg7OJqZY In the video, Schuey adds 12 lit briquettes to a "snake" or long line of unlit charcoal. The lit briquettes slowly go around the "snake" (also called a fuse) and it's a great way to keep a stable temperature during the cook. He uses 12 lit briquettes to achieve a 250 degree temperature on a Weber 22 inch kettle. The amount of lit briquettes depends on what temp your looking for and the size of your grill. For example, I have to use more lit briquettes for my Weber 26 inch kettle and I typically do low and slow cooks at 275 degrees. In the video, Schuey lights the briquettes in the standard position in a chimney starter. For such a small amount of briquettes (in Schuey's case 12) you can invert the chimneyy starter and put the briquettes on that bottom side to light the charcoal. I have found it easier and faster. Hope that helps.
@bks78424 ай бұрын

@hammysbbq4 ай бұрын
@@bks7842 What you do is invert the chimney then place one lighter cube directly on the upside down cone (thoppisite side of where the charcoal would go if not inverted). From there place briquettes or lump charcoal on top of and around the lighter cube. Just make sure there is enough space to light the cube and for oxygen to reach it.
