Abstract: An easily ignitable charcoal briquet system is provided for use especially in making small, outdoor cooking fires. The system includes wax-impregnated charcoal briquets in combination with starting pads of wax-impregnated paper or the like. The briquets are impregnated with a hot wax in a two-stage operation to produce a charcoal having two strata of wax impregnated below the surface of the briquets, which enhances ignition and burning characteristics of the briquets. The starting pads preferably are of non-woven paper material having uncoated corners, a light coating of wax along the outer margins thereof, a heavy coating of wax about an inner border thereof and an uncoated central portion. Wax impregnated briquets are piled in the uncoated center portion of the pad, which is ignited by lighting the uncoated corners thereof. The edges of the pad may be corrugated to facilitate ventilation.
