Charcoal comes in many forms and materials. There
are charcoal, briquettes, lump charcoal, heat beads,
hard wood etc. The time to ignite and get them white
and ready to use differs depending on material and
production quality.
If we start with charcoal it is mostly made from wood.
Much of the charcoal on the market is of bad quality,
maybe made from fast growing trees and often chilled
with water to speed production. Bad quality charcoal
does spark when ignited (which is not dangerous but
perhaps not so fun). Charcoal that is produced from
hard wood will take longer to ignite and get ready to
use.
Good quality charcoal lights quickly without sparks,
gets ready to use in a couple of minutes with the fire
starter and burns during a longer period. Briquettes is
pulverized charcoal that’s compressed with corn
starch to bind the charcoal.
Briquettes produce smoke (it’s the starch) but ordi-
nary charcoal is smokeless. Some producers com-
press their briquettes very hard which makes them
burn much longer (up to four hours), but on the other
hand also takes longer time to light and get ready for
cooking. Only use such briquettes when you need to
barbecue for many hours.
