iuild Your Barbecue Fire Fri., July 21, 1961 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 3 t.i TmZ$-tr 'WSifT Now that it's picnic and patio time, essential help is a bag ot wood charcoal briquets. They are made of carbonized wood, and are recommended for ama teurs or veterans. They burn with steady heat and give uni formly good cooking results. I Many outdoor cooks like to keep their own performance charts with this steady fuel, re cording depth of flrebed, dis tance of food from fire, and time taken to cook. With a few ex periments, cooking time can be gauged accurately. Whatever the type of equipment used, a few general rules are recommended! for best results. j In laying wood charcoal bri quets for a fire, a pyramid is the recommended start. For an or-: Properly dinary cookout, use about thirty briquets stacked to a height of five inches, more or less. Much depends on the type of equipment used. Deep bowl-shaped barbe cues may require more fuel, shal low models less. An electric fire starter can be buried in the pyra mid. Or you may prefer to use charcoal lighting fluid, following instructions on the can. Some families get good results using cut up paraffin milk containers1 buried in the coals. Whateverj method you use, allow ignited! coals to remain in pyramid until fine white ash forms over all. I This indicates cooking heat has been reached. Separate Coals Before placing food on fire, use fire rake or tongs to seperate coals for type of cooking desired. Excess ash can also be shaken oft at this time by a few hard raps at side of the barbecue grill. Here again the pattern of coals' depends on the size and shape of the equipment you use. I For spit cooking, lit coals can be arranged in an open circle slightly larger than the area of meat or fowl to be cooked. Turned-up foil can be placed in the hollow center of the circle to catch drippings. Additional coals can be added to the circle for long cooking, or the circle of coals made deeper for more in tense heat. ' In slush-kebab cooking, the white-ashed charcoal briquets should be lined up in double' rows several Inches apart. Skewered foods should be placed on the grill over the hollowed areas so that meat juices fall in empty spaces between the rows.
