Weber Rapidfire Chimney Starter (7416)

The Rapidfire Chimney Starter is the fastest way to light charcoal without lighter fluid. Fill the 1.6-gallon chimney with briquettes, light a couple of lighter cubes or crumpled newspaper underneath, and the chimney draws air up through the coals to light them quickly and evenly.

A cone-shaped bottom grate exposes more of the charcoal to flame, and the ventilated lower chamber has room for fire starters. When the coals are ready, the sturdy side handle and flip-up helper handle let you pour with two hands exactly where you want them. A heat shield reduces heat reaching the handle.

Highlights

• 1.6-gallon capacity, about 5.7 lb of standard briquettes
• Cone-shaped bottom grate for faster, more even lighting
• Ventilated lower chamber for fire starters
