Preparing a barbecue?
Ditch the classic fire starters you buy at the supermarket.
There is an economical and ecological trick to light your barbecue or your fireplace quickly.
Just use corks. They make effective and free fire starters.
1. Every time you open a bottle, keep the cork well.
2. When you prepare your fire, arrange the newspaper in a ball.
3. Put on the kindling.
4. Add the logs.
5. Place a plug next to each log.
6. Light the newspaper.
There you go, you lit the fire in your fireplace with corks.
Simple, effective and economical!
You can also light your barbecue with corks. It's much more natural than making your barbecue with cubes to light the fire of the barbecue.
Can you smell the smell these cubes give off when they burn? It's full of chemicals! Not great for grilling...
Just put the plugs next to the coal and kindling and light some newspaper.
The plug will ignite very easily and will burn for several minutes. Its constant flames will allow you to launch your fire.
The trick is to stick the cork tightly to the log so that the flames from the cork spread.
And you have to take corks and not plastic ones.
I use this trick every time I make a fire. Try it, you'll see, it's super practical.
