There are many different methods for starting a barbeque fire, and each comes with its own set of benefits and drawbacks.
You have many common ways to start a barbeque and we compare them to the LotusGrill Ignition Gel which we promote within our charcoal and ignition fuel package. We'll also examine the benefits of using LotusGrill ethanol lighter fuel over other options and the benefits of Lump Charcoal over Gas and Briquettes. In providing this detail we validate why purchasing TANZ Products' charcoal and ignition fuel package makes sense.
Starting a Barbeque: A Review of Different Methods
Charcoal Chimney Starter:
A charcoal chimney starter is a metal cylinder with a grate at the bottom and a handle on the side. You fill the cylinder with charcoal, light a firestarter under the grate, and the heat from the starter ignites the charcoal. This method is fast, efficient, and produces consistent results.
Electric Starter:
An electric starter is a metal wand that you plug into an outlet. You place the wand in the charcoal and turn it on. The heat from the wand ignites the charcoal. This method is easy to use and produces a consistent flame, but it requires an electrical outlet.
Lighter Fluid:
Lighter fluid is a petroleum-based liquid that you pour over the charcoal and then light. This method is fast and easy, but it can be dangerous if not used properly. The fumes from the fluid can also give the food an unpleasant taste.
LotusGrill Ignition Gel:
The LotusGrill Ignition Gel is a non-toxic, odourless, and environmentally friendly way to start your barbeque. You simply apply the gel to the ignition plate if using a LotusGrill BBQ or direct to the charcoal if using other BBQ types, and it ignites quickly and easily. It's also safer to use than lighter fluid and doesn't leave any unpleasant odours or tastes.
Types of Ignition Fuels Used in Barbequing
Ethanol:
Ethanol is an alcohol-based fuel that's made from renewable resources. It burns cleanly and produces a consistent flame, making it an ideal choice for barbequing.
The Benefits of Ethanol Lighter Fuel over Other Types in Barbequing
Ethanol lighter fuel has several benefits over other types of fuel. First, it's made from renewable resources, which makes it more environmentally friendly than petroleum-based fuels like lighter fluid. Second, it burns cleanly and produces less soot and ash than other types of fuel. Finally, it produces a consistent flame, which makes it easier to control the temperature of your grill and cook your food to perfection.
Why LotusGrill Ignition Gel vs Other Ignition Gels?
LotusGrill Ignition Gel is a superior choice when compared to other ignition gels for several reasons. First, it's non-toxic, odourless, and environmentally friendly, making it a safer and more pleasant option for starting your grill. Second, it's easy to use and ignites quickly, allowing you to get your grill started faster. Finally, it doesn't leave any unpleasant odours or tastes on your food, ensuring that your barbeque tastes as good as it looks.
In conclusion, starting a barbeque can be done in several ways, but the most efficient and environmentally friendly way is to use the LotusGrill Ignition Gel. Ethanol lighter fuel is also a superior choice over other types.
Every true grilling enthusiast will let you know that there's nothing quite like the taste of food cooked over charcoal. And when it comes to charcoal, lump charcoal is the way to go.
The Benefits of Charcoal over Gas
Charcoal is the preferred choice over gas for grilling. Firstly, charcoal provides a much more intense heat than gas, which makes it perfect for searing meats and achieving that perfectly charred exterior. Secondly, the smoke produced by charcoal adds a unique, smoky flavour to your food that you just can't replicate with gas. Finally, grilling with charcoal is just more fun! There's something about the ritual of lighting the charcoal, waiting for it to heat up, and tending to the fire that makes the whole experience more enjoyable.
WHY lump charcoal vs. briquettes?
Briquettes are made from compressed sawdust and other wood scraps, and often contain chemicals to help them burn evenly. Lump charcoal, on the other hand, is made from chunks of hardwood that have been charred in the absence of oxygen. Because of this, lump charcoal burns hotter and cleaner than briquettes, and produces less ash.
In conclusion, if you're serious about grilling, then lump charcoal is the only way to go. Not only does it provide more intense heat and a unique smoky flavour, but it's also more environmentally friendly than briquettes and produces less ash. So the next time you fire up the grill, make sure you're using LotusGrill Beechwood lump charcoal – your taste buds (and your guests) will thank you!
