    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.

    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."

    My Masterbuilt 900 Gravity Series is the best purchase I've made in years. I'm gonna have to try these out.

    Agreed, though i have the 560. So much better results then a pellet grill

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

    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.
    $12.99 for Meeco's Red Devil 144 pack at Menards, too.

    For camping firewoods. Is this a good starter? I've been using fatwoods and this seems much smaller in size to carry

    I have used something similar for camping to start log fire. I had to use a few to start the fire. I prefer fatwood. I can use 1 piece of fatwood vs several pieces of these.

    Totally makes sense if you're camping. They're water resistant and burn long enough to light damp crappy tinder. But inside your home you've got many better options.

    My son had a boy scout eagle project that tested various woods for campsites in California. The idea was to reduce the amount of Oak and see if a mixture of Oak and Eucalyptus ( a non-native species of wood ) could be effectively burnt. California had Eucalyptus that they needed to get rid of and not enough Oak. He tested and finally came up with a fire starter that was added to the bundle of wood and distributed to campers along with a survey. One of the biggest complement was on the fire starter. It used cotton balls and other stuff.

    Quote from trza :
    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.

    Small ball of duck tape works really well too but I wouldn't use it to start a fire I want to roast any food over…

    Just buy a $15 heat gun if you are igniting charcoal.
