TOYA LUND 99805 Charcoal Chimney Starter

The TOYA LUND 99805 charcoal chimney starter is a reliable and efficient tool designed to simplify the process of lighting barbecue coals. By utilizing a vertical chimney design, it promotes natural airflow, allowing charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal to ignite quickly and evenly without the need for chemical lighter fluids. This accessory is an essential addition for any outdoor cooking setup, ensuring that your grill reaches the optimal temperature for cooking in a fraction of the time compared to traditional lighting methods.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this charcoal chimney starter is its ability to provide consistent and rapid ignition for your fuel. The integrated ventilation holes at the base facilitate superior air circulation, which accelerates the combustion process. Constructed from durable zinc-coated steel with a thickness of 0.5 mm, the unit is built to withstand high temperatures and frequent outdoor use. Furthermore, the inclusion of a wooden handle equipped with a heat guard ensures that the user can safely handle and pour the hot coals into the grill, significantly reducing the risk of accidental burns during the preparation phase.

How to use

To use the chimney starter, place a small amount of firelighter or crumpled newspaper on the charcoal grate of your grill.
