    • ]]>     A charcoal barbeque grill uses charcoal or wood as its primary means of delivering heat to your food. The meat rests directly over the fire. There are many charcoal grills to choose from, but, for the most part, it makes little difference which one you end up choosing. Remember, you are just beginning don’t need anything real fancy. So, don’t go out and blow a bundle. Start with something simple. Some choices would include a: Kettle Grill, Box Grill, Barrel Grill, Drum Grill, etc. Most of these grills can be had for $20.00 to $200.00 − a small price to pay for grilling excellence.

    Make sure the grill chosen has sturdy legs! Meat seasoned with dirt will not make a hit with your friends! Also make sure that it has an adjustable cooking surface. When the fire is too hot or cool, you will be able to raise or lower the meat accordingly.

    Insure the grill has an easy means of adding more charcoal if and when necessary. Some grills require removing the meat in order to add additional charcoal. The grill should also have a lid with holes in the lid for ventilation. Closing the vents in the lid is only used to extinguish a run−away fire.

    The body of the grill, where the charcoal resides, should also have adjustable holes in either the bottom or in the sides to allow controlling the amount of fresh air into the chamber when the lid is closed so that the fire can continue to burn adequately.

    The old boy scout twig method is great for camping, but slows the process way down for grillers! First, there is the tried and true lighter fluid method, a petroleum based product. Remember you should never, ever, use gasoline to start a charcoal grill fire! Lay the charcoal out in a flat method in order that all the charcoal is coated with lighter fluid. Then stack the charcoal into a pyramid fashion and coat once or twice more. Allow about one minute to put the remainder of the lighter fluid away. Then light the bottom of the stack and watch it take off. Allow about 30 to 45 minutes for the petroleum vapors from the fluid to burn off. By then the charcoal should have a light coating of gray ash on it. If so, you are then ready to begin.

    Second, a charcoal chimney will initially start the fire slower, but you don’t have to wait for the fluid to burn off. Place paper in the bottom of the chimney and fill with charcoal. Light the paper and about 15 minutes it should be ready to go. Pour the red hot glowing charcoal into the grill body and get ready to go to work! A large coffee can serve the same purpose, but it has no handles and care must be taken to avoid burns.

    I hope this has provided you with some of the basics of selecting and using The Charcoal Barbeque Grill
