Not Slick. Comes out to 18.7 cents/ea. You can get a 144 pack of Meeco's starters (basically the same thing) from Mendard's for $11.56 (8 cents each). Even at regular price, the Meeco's are a lot cheaper.

Usually by now there's at least one post extolling the use of dryer lint, wax and egg cartons.

I wouldn't advocate this, good way to potentially kill the tree.

"Removing it may harm the inner bark and cambium. The wood beneath that peeled section may turn black, and the tree will get sick or even die. To keep our birches healthy, it is best to wait for that beautiful bark to fall off on its own."

i use any random uncoated cardboard, packing paper, charcoal bags for the charcoal chimney

for burn barrels or firepits i use dryer lint + packing paper + pine sap chunks i got from a big downed tree packed into a toilet paper roll

but these things would work too Cool

Agree with the DIY method unless you have a non standard situation... Like A Master Built gravity charcoal grill, then these are worth their weight in gold.

These firestarters are a great idea, but are way overpriced per pound. You can go cheaper with instant light charcoals or if ya wanna go the natural and free route, peel off some birch bark if you have some of these trees in your area.

The Rutland fire starter squares are around $22 for 144, or about 15 cents per square. The listed ones are more than 20% more expensive.

The best cheapo starter is cotton balls soaked in rubbing alcohol. Costs pennies per fire.

These are solid. You can easily break them in half and get a fire going unless you're trying to start a full log. Since they're dry they're a bit better for camping than the cotton balls.

For the MB 800, I drizzle about a tablespoon of dollar store cooking oil on a paper towel, twist it fairly tightly and bring the ends together to form a ring. It's never failed to light the grill so long as I remember to remove the choke plates.

NEVER use lighter fluid or instant light charcoal for cooking food.

Love the flavor from my 560 but after 3 years it's in very rough shape compared to other grills I've owned.
