The quickest way to crackling briquettes and the nostalgia of charcoal barbecuing starts with one simple, yet amazing, tool. Every barbecuer's essential sidekick, the Rapidfire Chimney Starter from Weber, is the fastest and easiest way to get barbecuing and start eating. Get your fire burning quickly with the must-have tool for all charcoal barbecues.
The durable, aluminised steel Rapidfire Chimney Starter has two handles to provide optimal control when pouring hot briquettes – wearing gloves, just grab its thermoplastic handle with one hand and its top wire handle with your other hand to direct fuel onto your charcoal grate. Its cylindrical canister holds enough charcoal to fill your kettle barbecue, and its cone-shaped bottom ensures that briquettes light quickly and evenly. To use your Rapidfire Chimney Starter, simply place it over a lighter cube or crumpled newspaper, light your preferred fire starter, and you're well on your way to burning red-hot briquettes – in less time and completely lighter fluid free.
The chimney starter speeds up the heating time of coals so that you can get your charcoal barbecue cooking sooner. The large capacity will hold enough briquettes for a 57cm diameter kettle grill. It works best with Weber lighter cubes.
How to start BBQ?
Use a chimney starter
Using one of these tubular starters means you can light charcoal easily with a few sheets of newspaper – the coals will catch and start glowing quickly and easily. A chimney also protects the coals (and you) on a windy day. Once the coals are ready, you can safely and easily tip them into the barbecue.
