campfire
Not sure if this is the area to ask but how do y'all start yer campfires. I use alot of newspapers and twigs. Sometimes it takes awhile. Thanks.

I use several things, depending on what I have. The Weber starters are good. Sure Start Firelighting Squares - I have those in the house for my woodstove. I usually have a bag of self-lighting briquettes when I camp, so a couple of those will work as well. If I'm out of all of those things, then I use a sheet of newspaper, rolled diagonally then tied in a knot - 3 or 4 of those, plus some kindling. I'm not making a teepee of the firewood anymore either, rather doing the criss cross (like a hashtag) which seems to draw more air up through it and start the fire faster. In a pinch, graham crackers make a good fire starter!
