About this deal

They really make lighting the barbecue so much easier. And I no longer have to use an entire newspaper to try and get the fire going. The fire they burn is very strong and reliable as well. Another one without the chemical smells which is great! (Again, because of the natural, sustainable materials, so this one is environmentally friendly, too). The good thing about this is that you can use these for pizza ovens and bread ovens as you don’t have to worry about any nasty smells or chemicals contaminating your food. I’ve tried these on my BBQ and the same went for the food as it was odour free.

And if you the weather ends up going a bit south, don’t forget the other use of firelighters: lighting fires… They’re eco friendly as well, so they don’t give off a nasty chemical smell when they’re burning which is a big plus when dealing with fire products. I love how you don’t get any smell on your hands as well. Also great that they are made of natural materials for the environment – just wood and wax – completely environmentally friendly as I cover in the buying guide if you’re interested. Martin Lewis: Do you have a Power of Attorney? It’s crucial protection – not just for the elderly – and more important than a will Now you know the main players, it’s time to step into the game. So how do you light a BBQ with firelighters? Read on for the revelation. If you want to see some tips on buying your natural & eco firelighters, go ahead to the Buyer’s Guide To Natural & Eco Firelighters at the top.You also don’t need many to get a fire started – three or four would be fine depending on how big your fire/bbq is – also factor damp – yes these will even burn strong enough for charcoal that you’ve let get damp – somehow on my Uniflame charcoal bbq the charcoal got damp in the cupboard under the grill, and these still got the charcoal going!. So great value for money and a genuine practical product – I have done my best to state the negatives, there just aren’t many. It’s a real step up from the nasty paraffin firelighters that are white and make your hands stink! Here’s what happens when you put a few in a bundle and place a bbq starter full of big lumpwood charcoal on top in about 5 minutes: At similar money to the natural Eco Wood Firelighters for 200 pieces, the Eco-Barn Wood Natural Firelighters XL 200 are the cheapest out of the selection in terms of how many firelighters you get for the price you pay. The Natural Eco Wood Firelighters last for 5 to 8 minutes with a strong flame all the way through that period

So you’ve got your fire triangle on point (pun sooooo intended), but where does your firelighter fit into the formula? Fires start from raising a tinder’s temperature until it combusts. Tinder is a material that combusts first, as a flame or ember, and in doing so it heats other denser material (such as kindling, twigs and so on) until it burns. So basically your firelighters take on the catalytic roll, acting as the gateway to igniting your tinder, which in turn ignites your principal wood fuel. Really happy with these – as you can see in the video they just go. There’s no trouble getting a fire alight and keeping it that way – a little smoke off the bat but you get that with all charcoal bbq’s! Priced sensibly for a good few bbq’s, the Homefire Twizlers are a great first option at really good value for money. Small pieces of wood brought together, these firelighters have a wax coating to keep them from shedding. From testing, I’ve noticed that the firelighters are very densely woven which shows how well made they are as this feature means they last longer. Some others can be too light and shed everywhere so they don’t give you as long a burn. On that note, I’m really impressed with how long these firelighters burn for – definitely enough time to get your fire really going – in a bbq starter that is raging you get only a few minutes – this is because the charcoal then fans the flame and speeds the burn process – of course this doesn’t matter as your charcoal is already alight. In tough conditions that are a little damp (what you’re no doubt far more interested in) you can realistically expect a bright strong flame anywhere from 5 to 8 minutes from my personal testing.Top tip from testing: These eco firelighters will even light damp charcoal – couldn’t believe it myself but after actually doing it I have to say, it changed the game for me. No more paper, kindling wood, and hard times getting a charcoal bbq going. I am now up and running in less than ten minutes everytime! From opening the box, they seem bigger than average which is great so you only need one or two to start a fire. The one thing I’d note is that they are all slightly different sizes but that isn’t really an issue as even the smaller ones are still a very decent size. Like the last products, these ones light in seconds and they create a very strong, long-lasting fire with only one or two of the firelighters. They have no chemical smells, again made from natural, sustainable materials, which we love! Especially as it means they don’t leave a smell on your hands. The only thing I’ll say is that these ones do have a slight smell when they’re not in use but having burnt them I can say they don’t carry a chemical smell once actually burning.

I also love that these ones don’t carry any kind of chemical smells which is great as the flame is odourless (and smokeless) and they don’t leave any smelly residue on your hands. Also a great option for the environment because they are made entirely of natural materials which is nice because I am fed up of my bbq smelling like an old paraffin light 😀 Homefire Twizlers (Wood Wool) Firelighters 300g (best eco firelighters and keep flame the longest – A VERY CLOSE SECOND FROM TESTING)So, I’m impressed with how long these lights are for considering the price – I’ve timed it and one firelighter stayed alight for over 8 minutes (as promised on the box). You probably need between one and three to light your fire depending how big you need it to be.
