Big K’s Woodies Firelighters are the perfect way to light barbecues and other fires. Made from 100% natural FSC® certified wood wool and wax, they light easily and quickly, producing minimal smoke and very little odour. Our Woodies Firelighters are safe and easy to use, and they’re the perfect way to light any of our range of Big K charcoals. Simply use the firelighters as directed by the lighting instructions for each type of charcoal.
With a burn time of approximately 7 minutes, there’s plenty of time to get your barbecue going. Try Big K’s Woodies Firelighters today for an easy way to get cooking.
Have tried various types of starters for my BBQ and wood burner had mixed results. Finally bought some woodies and I was amazed at how effective they were some of the quickest times up to temp I’ve managed.
I used three of these to light the BBQ successfully. They smoked a bit when burning but this was expected as they are wood & wax mixed. Will use these again.
Followed instructions and could definitely taste the difference. Amazed to find that after a slow cook of 15 hours there were still a few chips that hadn’t burned.
This is the first time that I’ve bought these and they’re a total revelation. A couple of these under my chimney starter and you’re away. So much easier and less mess than using rolled up newspaper.
I am sorry to hear this, although it is no excuse we are facing huge volumes of orders at the moment and do not want to let anyone down but it seems in doing so we made an error with your order. Please let us know if you would like us to send you some Woodies by emailing [email protected] Best Regards, The Big K Family

Dominic (verified owner)–
long sustained burn – used two in Weber chimney starter and was easily enough to get the whole thing burning quickly. next time will try with only one.
First time ordering from BIG K and I was not disappointed by this product. Used a chimney to assist lighting, and these lighters were perfect as they lasted the advertised time and did not have the same fuel odour of other lighters I’ve used. Recommended!
So easy to use. Used 3 to light to charcoal and couldnt have been easier. Have watched people struggle before to get BBQs to light, but not a problem with these.
Far better than the chemical blocks that stink and fill the place with smoke. Very easy to light, low smoke and odour. I would definitely recommend and buy again.
Place 3 or 4 pieces of Woodies Natural Wood Wool Firelighters FSC® on a single bed of your chosen fuel.
Add further fuel to cover the firelighters, light with a long match or taper or long gas lighter.
