Compact Chimney starter - VERY short review

[LightningBoldtz]

I purchased one the other day and I have to say, I LOVE that little thing it the perfect amount for most applications, especially for smoking.

Mine just came in today, too! Can't wait to use it.

Thunder, yes that is what I am talking about.

[Thunder71]

Dang it, I was fine before I knew it existed - now I have to have one.

[LightningBoldtz]

Thunder, you know what was funny, when they first came out I told a friend that even though I didn't need one, I had to get it.



I really like it a lot. It will not take away the bigger one, just a nice complement.

i like mine a lot. Just wish it had a wooden handle!

I've been thinking of mounting one to it but I am afraid of it catching fire. And all the wood handles I have are unfinished so I don't want to grubby them up.

Here are mine.  Used to have a "Brian" handle on the big one but have since repurposed it.

I like mine very much, but as was said it will not replace the big one, but will be part of the team.

I am working with Brian to make that happen to mine.  You were at the meetup did you not score a few wood handles?

I love mine...  Great for the SJ and for starting the Mini-Ugly Drum Smoker as LightningBoldtz mentioned.   It's kind of like having multiple sizes of screwdrivers in the tool-box.   Mine hang on a nail in the garage ready for another burn.

Funny, I just looked at mine yesterday and thought, "Now how nice would these be with WOODEN handles?"

i think i need to get one of these.  my boys cook on the "little" grills and i think this mini chimney would be perfect to use.  plus ....i think it would help most when needing small amounts for the slow cooks.

I just use my torch/weed burner. One propane canister lasts forever. I have never used a chimney.
