Place in the bbq and light then close the bbq so the heat is trapped and the fuel fires up.Second time I lit it yesterday I essentially did the same and but didn't use the chimney. It got to around 150 deg then dropped so I thought I'd lost it, then gave it a stir up with a stoker and it took off again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never had any say Panda I <3 Floods Silver Donating Members 11,198 Member For: 13y 4m 22d Gender: Male Location: South West QLD Posted 11/01/16 04:00 AM Share Posted 11/01/16 04:00 AM Alright.. So lets play a game.. Do you rate the coal bbq over the gas bbq?Is it simple enough that I could use it to replace the Gas burner?ie: I'm in the process of redoing my outdoor area.. and I've decided one of those egg bbq's would look a crapload better with the look I'm going for.. But if it takes serious consideration to be able to use the bbq the idea is out the window.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Webber got used a couple of times a month. Once you've got the method dialled you can have the legit have the coal BBQ hot enough to cook on in 25mins.
