I rip it open to separate a few lint fibers to get it lit easily.

That is a good idea.

Great idea! I sell fragrant candles and I want to use my extra samples as fire starters. Did you put charcoal in your fire box after it was lit or was it all the starter and scraps? I am a camper and love to bbq.

I use these for campfires mostly, so kindling goes on top. If I use them for a BBQ, I just put the charcoal on top. I would be careful using scented wax for food as it will get the scent into the food. Also, any scent chemicals will get into your food.

Put the saw dust in the wax first then put it in the lid
