Good thread, except for the cats comment.

Good sounding recipe, SRS, will try it.

I don't want to sound like an elitest but I have gone to wood charcoal and using an electic lighter. Webber (I think) has a grill with a propane tank to ignite the real charcoal. Would be quicker.

Not too many places have the 'real' wood charcoal but it is worth the time to find.
