To use, arrange your charcoal briquettes in the grill. Pour the lighter fluid evenly over the briquettes, allowing it to soak in for a minute or two. Then, carefully light the fluid with a long match or lighter. Once the flames have died down and the briquettes are covered in gray ash, they are ready for cooking. Avoid adding more fluid once the charcoal is burning.
