Collection: Charcoal BBQ Starters

Both starters are 100% natural — no harmful chemicals, no toxic residue, no lighter fluid needed. Whether you are firing up a kamado grill, a smoker, a wood stove, or a campfire, these starters use only natural ingredients and leave nothing harmful behind.

100% Natural Charcoal Starters — wood chips, recycled newsprint, and pure paraffin in convenient break-apart squares. Completely odorless and tasteless — will not flavor your food. Burns long and hot, and lights reliably even when wet. Place one or two squares with your lump charcoal, or a single square in the bottom of a starter chimney. Available in 24, 48, and 144-square packs.

Cedar Fire Starters — cedar sawdust and highly refined wax discs that reach nearly 1200°F in minutes. Burns for 20–30 minutes, leaves no residue, and is tested safe for catalytic wood-burning appliances. Each disc breaks apart into 4 individual starters for multiple fires. Available in 8, 16, 36, and 108-pack sizes.

Both starters light quickly and reliably with a single match — no lighter fluid needed. Simply light the rough edge and let it do the work. No chemical accelerants, no flare-ups, no mess. Just a clean, natural fire every time.

Both the Natural Charcoal Starters and Cedar Fire Starters are proudly made in the USA — quality you can feel good about, from a brand you can trust.
