Self lighting charcoal is a charcoal that lights easily with a match without the help of any fuel. Self lighting charcoal usually contains its own fuel (paraffin, wax, or other kind of fuel) in it and that is what it makes it light easily.

Self lighting charcoals depending on the kind need from 2 - 20 minutes to prepare for cooking.

How bad are barbecue shapes for you?

Barbecue charcoal briquettes? If so, there are a few factors. Some briquette companies employ binding agents. Historically, they used glues that were not safe to inhale. While I don't think that they do that anymore, "self-lighting" charcoal is soaked in lighter fluid so as to make them easier to light. This fluid's vapors aren't good for you, either. Then there are things like "coal dust is bad for you!" and "do not touch the lit coals!" that are a little more obvious.

Some brands of charcoal offer quick start by lighting the bag so you don't have to purchase the fluid. Just don't forget to bring a lighter or matches.


The burning of charcoal is a spontaneous process yet heat must first be applied to start a charcoal why?

The ignition of charcoal requires an external heat source to initiate the combustion reaction.

This is why the burning of charcoal is considered a spontaneous process once it has been ignited.

Do stores sell more gas grills or charcoal grills?

Having been shopping for a new gas grill my self. I noticed only 3-4 charcoal grills compared to 12-17 different gas grills. (Lowes) Wal Mart was about the same. So using common sense I am safely saying gas grills out sell the charcoal grills. Also gas grills are easily started, require no charcoal, or starting fluid. Then the time factor waiting for the charcoal to become hot enough to cook.
