Chimney Starter
The smell of charcoal lighter fluid may be synonymous with summer, but the taste is another story—if you aren’t wild about it, a chimney starter (also called a chimney lighter or charcoal chimney) is a must. Basically just a metal cylinder with air holes in the side, the simple but effective tool allows you to light the charcoal on a grill or barbecue without lighter fluid. Although it seems like the kind of device that should have been around forever, the starter wasn’t invented until the 1960s, several years after the Weber boom began. These days, many grilling experts consider the chimney starter an indispensable part of their toolkit.
