2. Prepara il tuo avviamento di fuoco

  • Take three paper napkins or paper towels and lightly coat them with vegetable oil.
  • Place the oiled napkins underneath the charcoal pile. This acts as an excellent fire starter, providing enough burn time to ignite the charcoal. Make sure the napkins don't lie completely flat on the solid steel fire base. Crinkle them up a bit so they light better

3. Organizza il tuo carbone

  • Place your charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal in a pyramid shape in the center of the grill.
  • For an Arteflame grill, focus on creating a concentrated pile over the center grate for higher heat, or spread it slightly for even cooking.
  • If you are also using wood, go ahead and place the wood over top of the charcoal.

4. Accendi l'antipasto del fuoco

  • Use a long-handled lighter or matches to ignite the oiled napkins.
  • Ensure the flame catches on the paper and starts to light the edges of the charcoal.

Mancia: Rimani indietro per evitare il contatto con la fiamma e monitorare l'incendio per assicurarsi che si diffonda.

5. Attendere che il carbone sia di cenere

  • Allow the charcoal to burn until it becomes ashy and develops a white coating. This process usually takes about 20 minutes.
  • During this time, the coals will heat up and turn red-hot in the center.

Suggerimenti di sicurezza per l'avvio di una griglia a carbone

  1. Work in a Well-Ventilated Area: Always grill outdoors or in a space with plenty of airflow.
  2. Keep a Fire Extinguisher Nearby: Be prepared for emergencies.
  3. Avoid Lighter Fluid: Using oiled napkins is safer and prevents chemical flavors from affecting your food.
  4. Wear Heat-Resistant Gloves: Protect your hands when handling hot coals.

Risoluzione dei problemi di problemi comuni

  • Charcoal Not Lighting: Ensure the napkins are adequately coated with oil and placed under the charcoal.
  • Fire Dying Quickly: Add more oiled napkins if the flame doesn’t fully ignite the charcoal. Sometimes when the fire doesn't catch, it's easier to just start over.
  • Uneven Heat: Rearrange the coals using tongs to create uniform coverage.
  • Patience: Be patient! The common joke is that the fire will be the perfect temperature an hour after you're done grilling. LOL.
  • Start Early: It's better to light the grill too early than too late. When just starting out, give yourself an hour or more. Remember: you can always add more charcoal or wood to keep the fire going but it's hard to make the grill heat up faster.
