Article: About 3 pounds (1.4kg) will be enough to fill most chimneys, and for most grills. Your chimney may also have a fill line. If so, use that as a guide. A charcoal chimney is basically a metal cylinder with a grate at the bottom, holes in the side, and a handle on the side. You place the charcoal inside, light it efficiently and safely, then pour the briquettes in your grill when they're ready. Lighter fluid can be dangerous and is not necessary if you use a charcoal chimney.
