How To Light a Grill the Right Way
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- Everyone thinks they know how to start a charcoal grill, but most don't do it properly. We've all seen it-someone will stand over the grill repeatedly dousing the charcoals and flame with lighter fluid, hoping the flame will gets bigger and bigger to no avail. Our resident grill expert J. Pereira is here to show us that actually, you don't even need any lighter fluid at all. Watch and learn from a backyard BBQ master.

I dont live near this guy so how am I going to get some sheets of his local paper?
LAAAAAAAUGHINGGGG!!!!! :D
Ask if he can provide the pdf, so u can print it out.
@@ebenho8788 That's a quality suggestion!
😂😂😂😂
Just ask some from a guy who looks like him from the area.
“Please use tongs or something....a gloved hand. Don’t grab these things. I see some people do some dumb 💩”
I *REALLY* like this guy 😂😂😂😂
The next second I see this guy using gloved hand
not that funny, not funny enough for you to make a comment
😂on Gawd I was crine at that part 🤣🤣🤣
@@ariefahmedshaik729thats what he said, use thongs or gloved hand
Thanks for typing out what he said. I had the video on mute while I tried to lip read but it didn't work.
I know I can trust this guy with grilling because he wears shorts and carries a beer can around
he's also just given out the best advice one could ever give. "please use tongs or a glove and don't just grab the hot charcoal with ur hands"
He drinks budweiser though
+BillyPilgrim wasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap
You had me at beer.
*piss can
Dont know the science behind it but it works...........sounds damn reasonable to me
He had me with this line, you don’t need to learn that shit anyways, just be aware that science does play a role
Lol imma go out on the limb and say oxygen and fire plays a part.
That is exactly why I trust him 👍
that's how i feel about the covid vaccine lmfao
Science enough for me
We have tried 3 times (once successfully, twice not really) to start our new charcoal grill. I watched 10 different videos and this was the best one. Well-made, no fuss, no extra tools. Thanks Munchies.
Take your grill back. The world is telling you not to grill
Buy a chimney, light with paper towel, paper napkins with a little bit of canola oil (or any oil)
lmao who the hell fails at lighting a grill... it's not rocket science. Did you hold a lighter to trying to light one piece of charcoal? LOL
@@AQHackAQ me I can’t light it. I used fluid. It lights and then goes out. Help
always use small woods and keep trying then you'll be expert
I know folks take long time bcoz they barely do grill
I'm a chick who never maned a grill before. Followed your clear, detailed instructions and I started a fire without liquid fluid / chimney for the first time! Thank you!
Best instructional video on any topic I’ve ever seen. “I don’t understand any of the science I just know this works” slayed me.
“Slayed” 🤦♂️
@@Huda88754 your disappointment in my vocabulary slays me.
Mexican way. Pour all the charcoal in, light a match, some paper towels. A cardboard fan. Blow. Carne asada ready
Yup
Thank you amigo
Lol
Este guey si sabe. That's all the techinique you'll ever need brotha
The cardboard fan 🤣. That's some real shit
"I see some people do some dumb shit" 😂
Made me chuckle too!!!
-Neighborhood grill enthusiast
Relatable.
I've never used a charcoal grill before, and I watched a few "beginner's guides" that were so overwhelming and intimidating (;n; ) Your explanation was WAY easier and more simple, and I actually feel like this'll be something I can do. It doesn't seem so scary anymore lol. Thank you so much!
I usually play my mixtape to get the coals going
Deez Nuts 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lmfaooo
Slick
Wouldn't work. You need something hot.
@@EllPro damn slicker good 1
I’ve been using a charcoal grill for 20 years I build a small fire with wood to get the coals started. Charcoal is dirty but the taste beats gas any day.
didn't know lighting a grill could be so entertaining, gosh my life really sucks.
+shaz omr the moment we are watching videos of how to light charcoal eiter we are doing a bbq or we have no life
Out injured from work getting paid 100%. Sounds good to me!
How's life treating you now ?
StevoTheAce71 lol you know what, it ain’t to bad. This time around I came to this video as a tutorial because I’m actually lighting up a bbq.
@@gforce3750 😂 glad you found some growth in your life
POV: you don’t have a dad.
Same
I do lol. I’m from India and just don’t bbq there at all lol
That’s why I’m here.
😭😭😭
💀😂
I feel attacked🤣
this guy needs his own show
Sorry, here in the U.S. we only put our biggest douchebags on television with their own show.
Now if he wore his shades backwards and upside-down on his head, had a bleached highlighted hair, and a catch phrase he would be ready for cable tv.
Guy Fieri is pretty funny though. Even if he looks like a real fuck
Franco V. I
I second that
Lmao
23 year old grilling for the 1st time. Got this working 2nd attempt.
1st temp i tried some other method then this one but when i emptied out the charcoal and started your vid from scratch, chefs kiss*, worked immediately 10/10. Thank you
I always use the fire starting charcoal grill thingy. But just like you, I use the tongs to move the charcoal around to build my fire. I find it relaxing to watch the charcoal build. After I start cooking corn tortillas and make them into chips. I find myself looking into the fridge to find stuff to grill, lol.
He would make a cool neighbor 2 have. I bet he knows about winter shit also
What a random ass comment 😂?
You're easily impressed.
Exactly. Last winter, my neighbor was trying to get ice off of his windshield. I was doing the same but I was pouring buckets of COLD water on my windshield when I noticed him bring out a bucket of HOT water! I don't know a lot but I knew enough to save him from cracking his windshield :-)
💯. he definitely knows 'neighbor shit'.
He needs his own channel/show
His natural sarcastic tone & his sense of humor is legit 💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 😂😂😂😂😂
This was amazing not only was it relaxing but it was ACTUALLY helpful i don't know what a grill chimney is or where to get one but everyone says you need one except for you. Thank you
This is exactly what I need for our up coming weekend BBQ. Thanks a lot.
Man thank you so much for this. Seems simple enough, but man your instruction was so helpful for a beginner like myself.
Beginner..sheeees I've been doing BBQs 30yrs n still wasn't doing them right ...now I will. Lol

Timothy Freeman Bibb. CB V Ve v.
With bars like that no wonder the flames worked so well
He's already on fire 🔥
I'm so glad I watch this I'm one of those pampered chicks my dad has always handled the fire in the family and I'm leading a family camping trip and have followed directions to a T practicing at home on my grill and I got it down. I know it seems so basic but I feel really accomplished knowing how to do this now safely. Thanks!
You sound just like me and that’s exactly why I’m here!
I like the way he talks. I dig his fire. It really ignites the flame inside my grill.
ericascag woahhhh
That's hot.
Aren't you the one that sends me friend requests on fb but your fb page has a bunch of porn videos so I delete them every day and mark as spam?
Mmmm dirty girl
You like guys using words such as '@$$' and 'f*#k' showcasing how miserable their vocabulary is? Interesting.
"I don't know the science behind all this stuff, but I know that it works, so that's science enough for me"
Pure gold
Munchies can you please do a video on how to use a microwave? Every time I put in my world famous mayonnaise and Kim chee casserole and nuke it for 45 minutes, it ends up looking like shit. Please help.
+Cucha Racha use the pre-set configurations. if you just press start it is usually cooking your food.....there's soo many different wave lengths the microwave cooks with.
That makes your mayo spoiled
If you took my comment seriously, congratulations, you are what's wrong with the world.
Cucha Racha Acting dumb (trolling) is what's wrong with the world. I genuinely thought you were in need of help, so I helped. Doesn't make me stupid, makes me a human being.
No, it makes you stupid if:
1.) You first read "mayonnaise and Kim Chee casserole" and believed it was an actual dish.
2.) Reading "nuking it for 45 minutes and it looks like shit." and logically thought Kimchee and/or mayonnaise in a microwave for 45 minutes would cause anything other than complete hell.
Congratulations, you're stupid.
I’m definitely going to do this on my next grill because I always use lighter fluid and have little patience to wait. After seeing this he made it look easy.
Yo finally something basic I been through 12 videos already on how to properly start a grill an all of em have been technical as fuck thank you for keepin it simple its like dannn grillin shouldn't be technical lol
Men like to pour gallons of lighter fluid onto the grill as if they’re about to cook a dinosaur
I prefer to light my hands on fire and get the coal going that way, works fine.
Me too. Especially when you live in cold climates and you still want a BBQ.
YesIAmThatCoolBitch I stick the charcoal in my shorts, fart while having a cigar
YesIAmThatCoolBitch I just thrown in my mixtape...problem solved son!!
eirik nystrom just cook dat meat right on the caset player
Problem with that otherwise great method is that you can only do it that way maybe once a season. Healing and all that...
This is the same way I used to light the wood stove when I lived in Monticello, NY. I didn't know diddly about wood stoves until we had one installed. Not sure how I learned, either. But I'm getting a hibachi style grill and do not want to use lighter fluid. I just wasn't sure if the heat from paper and twigs was enough to heat the charcoal. This was helpful. We all have to learn somehow, although people act like they know everything through osmosis. "You don't know how to light charcoal? You been living under a rock?" I had a hibachi before, and used lighter fluid, but it stinks and I am not crazy about flammables anyway. Good, basic, simple video. Thank you.
The dude seems chill as fuck
Dem beard tho
Thanks! Much to my surprise I got the grill started with just paper and some twigs. After 30 minutes now, all the coals are burning/glowing just beautifully, and I'm about to put the meat on the grid. 👍
Neighbourhood Grill Enthusiast - what a lad and what a title!!
Love the Spongebob music playing in the background
Few days back the BBQ Pit Boys did a video on the same subject, and got to say it was GUUUD.
SatanSupimpa pitmaster privilege!
No spg on this video
Fuck those guys
“I don’t really know the science behind it, just know it works” sounds good enough to me. Thanks!
they make charcoal chimney starters. 15 bucks. way faster too
$3 at my local Sears. Best deal in years.
@@hamzterix on sale?
@@ve8628 yes, we had around 4 Sears shut down in Seattle except one. Which had those on sale.
Got one free from buddy
You just missed the whole fucking point douche bag
God damn get this man a beer! Also if you dip the news paper in olive oil works great
I feel like flax oil could be a good choice too. I say that because having previously attempted to season a pan with that particular oil. It lights up incredibly well. (also turned my house into a cloud)
What do you cook in a Weber with
just 10 briquettes lit?
Lol, pb and j
Anything
1 Lil Smokie
Lots of things.
Thank you I struggled yesterday with lighter fluid. Can't wait to use your method
I love his comment “that’s a hot fire”
This is great and all but you can just get a chimney. Way faster and more convenient
Not everyone has one.....that's why this vid exists🙂 was a good vid tho
living but everyone can but one for 10-15 bucks and it’ll be a lot more efficient
There are many videos out there of how to do it with those. The purpose of THIS video is to show how to do without. I, as many others, do not want one more gadget to keep track of, hence why this video is relevant as is.
EVERY time I think of buying one I reason that I can spend the extra cash on a little more meat or extra sides for my BBQ.
@@Johnsor21 l
1:43 It's like watching Jesse Pinkman teach xD
Ahhh
Wire!
Yeeee Bitch!
Finally someone who knows how to light a grill. Ive seen so many people mess up their food by putting it on the grill just as the inferno that you mentioned starts.
Just get a charcoal starter. Its 10xs easier and it works every time
And his professionalism is just enough, and he swears and drinks a beer, that you 10000% know you can trust him. This is what America needs
Dear Sir,
Thank You for the video. I hope you have a happy 4th of July. God Bless.
So happy I found this! Watched a few before and was bored and confused! You kept it fun and simple. Gracias!
I just put the charcoal in the BBQ and do a Hadouken.
Works EVERYTIME.
I fart on them and instant Flame ON!
What is that profile picture? Not trying to be rude. Just wondering.
The best part of this video is this guys does not give 2 F's and it is hilarious. Good job bud! Love it!
Using Royal Oak. This guy gets it! Why people spend the money on Kingsford, I will never know. I switched to RO last year and haven’t looked back.
TheReapersSon Care to explain further?
@@LB-kr5ku cheaper and doest he same shit is all he is saying
Just use lighter fluid...let it soak into the charcoal for 3 minutes at least. When you light it, it will light very very slowly. It doesnt blow up in your face. Use a match if you're worried. Wait 20+ minutes pr until the charcoal is completely white and then spread the coals, wait a couple minutes, then you're ready to cook. One big thing that most people dont do is pre-light any charcoal that you might add later on. (Say if you're slow cooking or smoking)
You absolutely must use a chimney starter to get the charcoal white before you add it to your grill! Adding black charcoal to the grill while you're cooking releases hundreds of carcinogens into your food!
Good points.
I found out the best way to light a grill with no lighter fluid.
You know those propane torches that attach to a 1lb propane tank? Just use one of those and the charcoal lights right up.
So use propane to light charcoal, which is an alternative to propane grilling?
People should use charcoal to light their propane grills!
I know Hank Hill disliked this video
Y
Lmao
You're Got dang right I did.
Say no to propane
But Peggy and bobby liked it
Dude! It SO worked. This is my method from on. Thank you so much.
The beer can scene was awesome. Manlaw
This guy is the definition of chill
If there's one thing we learned from Roman Craig it's that you don't crumple, you twist. 🤣
Thanx man. Greetings from Czech Republic.
The price of a Newspaper here is the same price of a bottle lighter fluid in Texas.
$3.50
Yeah this video... id kind of whack lol. Same time i didnt rewlize peoppe have trou le getting charcoal going lol. At least 90% of the bags in the store are all instant charcoal and light super duper ez. Like its pre dosed light fluid or something lol.
As for how i do it. I soend 3 bucks and get lighter fluid. I get instant chsrcoal or easy light charcoal. And i get it lit by putting some lighter fluid on a piece, light it get a dmall fire goal.
Then i spray more light fluid on once i hsve a flame going. This getd rhe entire thing to ignite really eqsy and i end up using hardly any fluid. Just a single 32 oz bottle depending on how much i camp/eat on the charcoal grill over the summer itll last me about the whole summer if not the entire!
Followed these instructions, and we had beautiful gray mesquite coals in about 20 min. No lighter fluid...just matches, newspaper, and some dry kindling we found in the yard. Nothing fancy. Thanks!
An oz. of cookin oil and one paper towel between some charcoal, got fire in 5 minutes. Mexicali Style Carne Asada ; )
i watched your video ONCE and nailed my first charcoal grill out, thank you lots dude 🤌🏽
I use the Weber charcoal chimney
Yeap, and lighter cubes.
@@terrancetubbs389All you need is a couple of sheets of newspaper rolled under the chimney. No need to waste money on lighter cubes.
The paper method worked for me and this will be my go to method from now on. Thank you so much for sharing.
Just get a charcoal chimney and save yourself time picking out twigs from the yard 😋
Real men use twigs.
Thanks for skipping the science part My Guy! Best tutorial on YT! Straight to the point!👍
Save yourself some money and just make your own charcoal, super easy. you just put wood in empty paint cans and put over a camp fire, done!
The wood will cost more then the bag of charcoal
We were stuck in middle of firing a charcoal grill. This video was really helpful. Appreciate this guy and the video 😅
Just use a charcoal chimney. The downside to lighting paper in the grill is the ashes stay in there.
Tiny McPoop you don't have to use the chimney on top of the grill. I typically just light on a patch of dirt or something.
@Tiny McPoop You don't need to use paper to get the charcoal started when using the Chimney. Weber makes these small lighting cubes, use one and done. No paper ash.
@@tomwhitmore1325 actually use a small paper napkin or bit of paper towel crumpled up and put some cooking oil on it, hardly any ash and burns very hot, I've done it in -25 degree Celsius weather no problem.
"I don't know the science behind all this stuff.. but I know that it works. That's science enough for me"
This guy is just naturally funny 😂
Coals with alot of lighter then put grill on. Burns off all the crude that accumulates from previous q sessions. Easy way to clean the grill throughly. But thanks for the tip!!
Dont let this guy fool you, he belongs to Kapa Phi Beer Association. He is a certified beer and cooking linguist😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂. Good video!!!
of course a Portuguese guy is the "neighborhood grill enthusiast" lol
Literally the best video, no BS just straight to the point
"And that's how you light a charcoal grill without lighter fluid! Just things you have laying around the house"
I forgot we still live in 1990 and people use newspaper
Not even that though, the sticks 🤣🤣🤣
Probably could have discussed coal positioning for a hot and warm zone but for beginners this was a great video!
How Argentinians lights a grill the right way: throw bunch of papers, throw the coal. BURN. Wait few seconds, bring a hairdryer, turn on and apply in some parts of the mountain of coal, then you will have all the coal ready in 1 min. Yeah, ready to bake 30kg of meat :D
Diego Lafuente
Just don't throw the hairdryer into the pool after you are done.... I speak from experience.
FoodOfTheGods Actually, the best asados are done away from the pool because you can fell into while drinking the beers :D
Chongo Power yo igual jajaja
Diego Lafuente
Argentinian beef....mmmmmmmmggghmmmggghhmmmmmm *gargle* *salivate*
Diego Lafuente morcilla and chorizo! And entraña of course. That's how we did 4th of July!
Just lit my grill the correct way for the first time thanks to you, no more lighter fluid for me!
Thanks for this. I pride myself on doing everything a man can do. This was a daunting and stressful thing for me to attempt. Now I’m not so worried. ❤️💛
Thank you for creating this video I really appreciate you making it👏👏👏👏
I use news paper an left over bacon grease works great smells great
This worked - clearly & efficiently explained and demonstratred. Thank you, Sir. I used shredded cardboard. However, lighter fluid is still useful to get the 'coals' quickly and evenly.
What has the county come to when so many men have no idea how to start a fire without chemicals it’s not a really difficult concept
it always takes some sort of chemical element to start a fire ...
Just got a Weber grill yesterday. Awesome super easy video! Thanks for the information 👍
Charcoal chimney, dryer lint, beer.
Neil Stringfellow nobody want to use your gross Pube Fire
“I don’t know the science behind it… but I know it works” good enough for me.
Normally I get confused by neck beards but his just makes sense
Clearly this gentleman's beard is in the tradition of Henry David Thoreau, a different class from the common "neckbeard" to be sure.
"I don't know the science behind that stuff, but it works. That's science enough for me" I LOVE THIS GUY! hahaha Thanks for the video mate
I don't care about politics. I just want to grill for God's sake.
Thanks dude. I started grilling last year but only did it once. Starting the fire was always my fear and it's been a full year since I left grilled. This help man, thank you!
$10 Chimney starter the end
You are the best
My mum tried it
It turns fabulous
Thank you for your video❤️
Man some gasoline and a road flare, cuts that shit down to mere minutes. 🤣🤣😉😁
"I don't know the science behind ...but I know it works" honest man ,honest words
*"Not too tight, Not too loose" that's what I said to her*
Good video. Useful because it confirms with me that it takes a while for the charcoal to get going and you show me how its supposed to look. Thank you
