Abstract: A meat-grilling device consists of an open metal box and a throw-away fuel pack enclosed in a closed box of wire netting for insertion into the metal box, the top of the wire netting serving as grid. The fuel pack comprises three superposed layers: an uppermost layer of charcoal lumps, an intermediate layer of paraffin-soaked wood shavings, and a lowermost layer of igniter material in the form of crossing paper strips covered with a rapid-igniting material. Two long side walls of the metal box are perforated by air openings which, during transport, are covered by four flat legs. The legs are swivelled into vertical position during grilling so as to distance the box bottom from the ground. The fuel is lighted by a match put through an air opening to the igniter material, which ignites the wood shavings over the entire pack area, and which, in turn, lights the charcoal. The wood shavings are consumed rapidly causing the charcoal layer to drop down remote from the grid, preventing scorching of the meat.
