Weber Braaing

They're nuts. You can get one three times that size for half the price at a street light. Store it in an old margarine tub filled with paraffin and you're sorted. It works, but I've found the get "brittle" after a few fires. Not sure if it's something only related to the one I worked with, but eh.

I suppose for all intents and purposes some wood chunks soaked in paraffin will fulfill the same purpose.
 
ive heard people use their old teabags in paraffin as well
but i dont drink tea

You're looking for pumice stone. That ankle-sanding stuff they sell at the street lights.

Right now I'm sitting with some leftover alcohols I want to see if I can turn into fire lighters. Perhaps keep some wood or charcoal on hand to soak in the alcohol. Or something. It's still a work in progress :D

Im sure you have plenty of foreshots to use as firestarters.
Heck even Jack Daniels use their to char oak for use in filtration.

So move.

I wonder if those pumice stones you use on your feet would work?

Yep, and you've just given me a great idea. I have some oak around here that's "given up the ghost", so the speak. Pretty much spent. I'll soak that in my second-run methanol and use as a firelighter. Want to see if it'll work...

Yep, they'll work. See my posts on it above. Same as what I've got at home. Still prefer the individually wrapped firelighters - doesn't make your fingers smell bad.
 
I usually buy those specials are Makro. Bulk packs, enough to last a while.
 
Right, briquets are ready, weber is ready, tuna steaks will get a quick marinade before going on.

Not at all. But I was the kid who knew that stuff like my backpack and shoes cost money. Money my parents had to work their asses off for, so I looked after it. Same principle I hold today - I worked for my money. Hard. My friends and family (who aren't rich by any stretch of the imagination) worked hard for their money. The money they put together to buy me a Weber for my birthday. So I look after it, as well as I can.
