Lighting a Barbecue
Open Grill
Place Redheads® BBQ Briquettes on top of Redheads® Firelighters
Carefully ignite the Redheads® Firelighters

Spreading BBQ Briquettes evenly over the grate
Kettle BBQ
Place 2-4 Redheads® Firelighters on each side of the fuel tray.
Position Redheads® BBQ Briquettes over firelighters
Ensure vents are open and the lid is off
Ignite and leave for approx. 20 minutes
Briquettes are ready to use when there is a layer of grey ash covering most of the coal
Using a Chimney Starter
Place an adequate amount of Redheads® BBQ Briquettes into the large side of the Chimney starter - ideally enough for one full layer of briquettes across the entire cooking area
Place 2-4 Redheads® Firelighters where the chimney will eventually be placed for ignition.
For most applications, you may set the firelighters/chimney where most practicable for the ignition process
If you have a Kettle BBQ remove the top rack from your charcoal grill and place the Firelighters on the lower rack
Make sure to allow for good airflow underneath the chimney - open any available air vents
Carefully ignite the Redheads® Firelighters
Place the chimney right side up directly over the ignited Firelighters
Let the fire burn for at least 20 minutes or until the coals are covered with grey/white ash
Using oven mitts to handle the chimney, dump the charcoal directly into the grill spreading BBQ Briquettes evenly over the grate
Return the top rack, wait 2-4 mins before putting the grill to work
