Lighting Charcoal with Royal Oak® All-Natural Tumbleweeds
- Arrange a layer of charcoal on a bed on the grill.
Fill the bed of the grill with the appropriate amount of charcoal. - Add All-Natural Tumbleweeds.
Place All-Natural Tumbleweeds in the middle of the charcoal. Use 1 Tumbleweed per 2 to 3 pounds of charcoal briquets or lump charcoal. - Add additional charcoal to form a small pyramid.
Add additional charcoal on top of the base and the Tumbleweeds, forming a small pyramid to help increase coal-to-coal contact and help the fire spread. Tumbleweeds should be partially covered by charcoal. Keep the Tumbleweed end exposed to allow for lighting access. - Light All-Natural Tumbleweeds.
With a long-stemmed lighter, light the end of the tumbleweed and wait as the fire spreads. When the charcoal is covered with gray ash, spread evenly and begin cooking.
