Instructions
Remove grill tray and add charcoal to the grill.
Build a pyramid. Add layers of wrinkled paper in the charcoal pyramid and hide some firelighters. Make sure the firelighters are touching the paper.
Use matches or a candle lighter to light the edge of the paper. Light the paper at several edges.
Wait until all paper has burned.
Distribute the heat by using a magazine or a bbq blower. Create wind from different angles. Wait 5-10 minutes and you are ready to use the grill.
