Been trying to light charcoal to make some barbecue, but there is no way in sweet heaven that I can get those black pieces of shit to stay lit. I threw isopropyl alcohol on it, and some pieces of newspaper even and it always died out.

We did a lot of grilling and we always used gasoline. It works well and looks cool when you light it.

Or like other folks have said you can make one-time use ones out of wood or just make a fire with wood. Charcoal only exists because it's easier to light and maintain than actual wood.

>> No.12919704

>>12919355
If you're using lighter fluid. Let the lighter fluid sit for about 5 minutes before igniting.
If you spray lighter fluid and light the coals right away, it'll burn up before the coals can ignite.
