After using almost every method, I have settled on the charcoal chimney fired up with a Weber cube. No flying ash, fast, easy, light it and walk away. No buying and schlepping gas tanks or cylinders, no need to stand there holding the torch or weed burner. You can just lay the cube on top of your lump without a chimney to start a small amount of fire for a low and slow. It’s a variation of the Minion method. Or fire up a chimney, filled to any level, for a hotter fire. No need for electricity like those different electric starters. As we have said many times, you will never get a low temp if you start too much charcoal at first. One Weber cube, with or without a chimney, and you have it made, easy peasy, for either a hot or a low fire.
