Proper grammar assure good communication. Kids doing their "thing" is one

Did no one notice the subject-verb agreement issue?

Not worth the effort it takes to bring them home and put them
together. I had a few of those over the years, after a couple of
summers they were shot. I just bought new flavorizer bars and
grates for my 11 year old Weber and it's practically new again.
Cart's still as sturdy as ever.

Correct. It was a typo that caused the error

Nobdy cared but the grammar police came out anyway. You'll do us a
better service by correcting those who don't know when to use less or
few, vs someone who didn't hit s on the keyboard hard enough.

With a chimney it only takes 2-3 sheets, honest. Paper burns in about 2
minutes, then the lump has started on the bottom, and the 'chimney effect'
makes the rest get going in about 10 minutes - just enough time to assemble
the stuff to bring out, pour another cocktail & prep a side or two. The
chimney I have was purchased at Wally-mart for about $7-8 six years ago,
btw.

I, too, have started lump with starter fluid, but now use the
chimney/newspaper deal whenever I can.

It's not like you were burning a PILE of newspapers (like trash). In fact,
as soon as you ignite those 2 sheets that are balled up in the bottom
chamber of the chimney, the charcoal starts to light and THAT'S what you
smell (for Curley Sue).

Works for me.

Got a LOT less chemical than fluid, Steve. Our stores use the regular flat
newsprint. Plus, it's gone in a minute or two.

I've used my share of lighter fluid over the years ($$$). It's just that
now the chimney method seems cleaner, PLUS ya get the whole batch of red
coals at once to cook over with fewer hotspots.

I still use fluid when I'm lighting 40 pounds + in my chicken pit, though (I
can cook 75 halves per batch). That would take more chimneys than I could
manage . . . .

Whatever works for you.

If it is well seasoned, oak is nice. You have to split it up pretty
small, and let it burn down more than a tastier wood like hickory, but
go for it. I've cooked over oak quite a few times when I've made beef
kabobs by sticking the skewer inside the door of my Franklin stove. I
usually did this on really cold days.
Yeah, I know, you're not supposed to...

The little Hibachi we have doesn't even need a chimney with lump
charcoal because it has excellent draft. All it needs is a couple sheets
of paper crumpled up on the grate with the charcoal on top. The bigger
one does. The key is the paper needs to be loosely crumpled up so it can
burn fast.

Yes, you can. You need a clean burning fire to use raw wood. Add a small
piece or two at a time to the glowing/burning coals.
I can't supply the specifics,'cuz I just add wood for flavor, but you might
ask TFM®. I believe that he cooks with wood, but usually on a larger scale
than a kettle.

Good.

Good luck with your venture, and good eating.

Tried the lump tonight. It started great with the chimney. I dumped it
out and let the grill heat up a bit to burn off the old stuff that was
on the rack.

I noticed that the temp did not increase as it usually does with regular
charcoal. The burgers and steaks took maybe a bit longer to cook, but
everything was great. After we finished eating we noticed that the temp
on the grill had increased quite a bit.

I also cooked some portobello mushrooms with the meat. Very good!

And even though it was a bit chilly and windy outside, we used our
heaters and were fairly comfortable.

Ahem...That's because you rarely stay awake through a 12 hour cook.

With briquettes that would take 3 chimneys. The beauty of lump is that you
can just toss it into the WSM in it's raw, naked form and it will burn just
like wood. (Mebbe cause that's what it is)
