Big Green Egg Fire Starters Big Green Egg Fire Starters

Our Fire Starters are made from sawdust and paraffin and are very effective for quickly and easily lighting lump charcoal without imparting a chemical taste. A box contains 24 cubes. The Electric Starter, if you prefer that method of lighting, will light the charcoal in about eight minutes. Directions: ~Fill the fire box with lump charcoal to at least 1 inch above the air holes. ~With the lid open, slide the draft door completely open. ~Nestle 1 or 2 Big Green Egg Starters into the charcoal and light. After approximately 10 mins, or whenever several coals are burning, close the lid. ~When the temperature gauge reaches the desired cooking temperature, reduce the airflow by adjusting the dual function metal top and draft door. ** Do not hold Fire Starter in hand to light.
