Never tried the olive oil trick, we just put a couple pieces of newspaper under it.
Have a small fan sitting out there and sometimes we'll turn it on and point it at it for a few mins.
I have no idea when the last time we bought any of the stink'n lighter fluid.

I bought a new Weber grill a few years ago that has a charcoal lighter that uses a 16oz propane bottle to light the coals. I too enjoy not using lighter fluid, the propane burns hot and clean and doesn’t have any order or taste. Add charcoal, run the burner for 4 minutes and presto, the charcoal is lit. Sure wish I could add to the plinking part of the conversion.

After starting the grill, I walked out to the picnic table and put three rounds on paper. Wee bit high at the 55yds we are.


Moved over to the old hog lot where the big gong is.

I'll be darned if it wasn't still high and after a couple misses I used the ole KY windage trick. Smacked the big one once on the right side and barely got the 10". look closely at the left bolt.
