Cookin Chunks are an excellent alternative to charcoal when cooking on the grill. They provide an authentic western flavor from the natural wood smoke.Lighting Instructions
Build your fire with Cookin Chunks, using 1/3 less
than you would with charcoal. Start the same way you would charcoal using starter fluid. You can also start the Cookin Chunks in a chimney (follow chimney maker's instructions).
To light without fluid,
pyramid Cookin Chunks over two crumpled sheets of newspaper. Let burn for 18-20 minutes with lid and all vents open. All wood should be ignited, but still flaming. Close vents and lid. Wait one
minute for flames to subside. Reopen vents, place food on grill and cook with lid closed for the most flavor and to prevent flaming.
Yes, you must start cooking sooner than with charcoal to get the best of that
real wood smoke flavor. Control heat by adjusting vents. Cookin Chunks burn hotter than charcoal, so don't overcook.
