To use, simply place 2 lighter cubes on the charcoal grate of your barbecue, fill the chimney starter up with briquettes (2/3 for roasting or full for barbecuing). Light the lighter cubes and place the chimney starter with briquettes on top. Leave for 20 minutes or until the top briquettes have a covering of grey ash. Then tip out into barbecue. 

About Riverside:

The Riverside Garden Centre has been established since 1997 and is owned and run by Russell and Jo Jeffery who take a very hands-on approach to every aspect of the business. They are always on hand to help and give advice.

Having moved away from being a more traditional garden centre over recent years and evolved into a modern outdoor living destination, Riverside now focuses more on quality and style than it ever did before.

LARGEST WEBER® WORLD BBQ SHOWROOM

Officially the UK's largest Weber® World Barbecue showroom Riverside stocks and displays every Weber® barbecue and accessory available from the small, portable charcoal models, the award winning Q™ range as well as the famous charcoal kettles and outstanding gas barbecues. As a World Store Riverside also stocks a number of exclusive barbecues and accessories not found in regular Weber® stores or outlets.

TRAEGER GRILLS

With the popularity of barbecuing and outdoor smoking growing at a phenomenal rate Riverside has become the 'go to' place for Traeger grills, pellets and accessories. Easier to use than a traditional barbecue a Traeger grill controls the cooking temperature for you and produces perfectly smoked food every time.

FURNITURE SHOWROOMS

Riverside likes to do things big and that includes their furniture ranges too.

With three large fully furnished showrooms bursting with big names including 4 Seasons Outdoor and Alexander Rose Riverside again offers the largest displays of both prestige brands anywhere to be seen in the UK. Be it dining, lounge or modular, virtually every product and set is on display and in stock at the Hertfordshire premises.

SILK PLANTS AND ARTIFICIAL WALL COVERING

To complement the furniture and outdoor living themes Riverside also specialise in high quality artificial plants and trees as well as UV protected foliage-covered screening panels. Particularly popular with interior designers, hotel chains and zoos Riverside's silks plants and wall panels have developed a good reputation both corporately and domestically.

SEE FOR YOURSELF

Everybody naturally will say good things about their own business but with 7-day-a-week opening and a fresh easy-to-use website Riverside happily encourage anyone to take a look round both in-store or online to see for themselves just how good Riverside is.

Much better quality than anything else I've seen and a takes all the hassle out of starting a BBQ - also contains the paper if it's windy; a faceful of grit is never a good thing! Great price and the Weber briquettes are good too

Excellent and well worth the highish price for a metal bucket with open cage on the bottom.

I wish I'd discovered this years ago. Works really well. The instructions say to crumple up 2 sheets of newspaper and put them under the chimney, to light them, and to wait 20 minutes. What they don't say, but should, in case you're stupid like me: 1) They do mean newspaper - glossy paper seems to burn much less well, and leaves a lot more ash. 2) Do use firelighters (at least 2). The newspaper alone won't cut it. 3) Stand the chimney on the bottom grate of the grill, not on the cooking grate as it doesn't draw as well on the top one. 4) Do be prepared to wait until ALL the coals are glowing, not just the bottom ones if you want it really hot. All in all, an excellent piece of kit though.
