Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter

The quickest way to crackling charcoal or briquettes and the nostalgia of charcoal barbecuing starts with one simple, yet amazing, tool. Every barbecuer’s essential sidekick, the Rapidfire Chimney Starter, is the fastest and easiest way to get barbecuing and start eating.

Get your fire burning quickly with the must-have tool for all charcoal barbecuers. The durable, aluminized steel Rapidfire Chimney Starter has two handles to provide optimal control when pouring hot charcoal or briquettes – wearing gloves, just grab its thermoplastic handle with one hand and its top wire handle with the other, to direct fuel onto your fuel grate. Its cylindrical canister holds enough charcoal or briquettes to fill your kettle barbecue, and its cone-shaped bottom ensures that charcoal or briquettes light quickly and evenly.

To use your Rapidfire Chimney Starter, simply place it over a firelighter cube or crumpled newspaper, light your preferred fire starter, and you’re well on your way to burning red-hot charcoal or briquettes.
