Use of A Chimney Starter
A chimney starter is used by placing charcoal (as lump charcoal or briquettes) in the chimney so that they stack on top of the grate. Once the charcoal is all burning (it will appear glowing red in the bottom and ashed over on the top), the chimney is picked up by its handle and the lit charcoal dumped into the grill.
A non-traditional use is to cook directly over the chimney starter, which provides a high-intensity heat-source for flash-searing fish or other foods.

Famous quotes containing the word chimney:
“Now he sings of Jacky Horner,
Sitting in the chimney corner,
Eating of a Christmas pie,
Putting in his thumb, O fie!
Putting in, O fie! his thumb,
Pulling out, O strange, a plum.”
—Henry Carey (1693?1743)
