How Long Before The BBQ Coals Are Ready?

Typically, 10 to 30 minutes depending on a variety of factors. But a quick way to determine if your coals are ready is by fine white ash covering them. If most of the coals are still black, it may release 'coal dust' on your food. While not necessarily dangerous, it may taint your food taste.

As a young child, Bert was fascinated with anything with a flame. Eventually, his interest was productively focused on cooking and eventually joining the Hearth, Patio and BBQ industry. Once known to own a ‘fleet’ of grills and BBQ, Bert loves to experiment with food and flavours. This led him to research the ‘science’ of food and forever seeking the best methods to satisfy his hungry and discerning guests. He also writes blogs on all things BBQ. Bert now lives in Asia where he pushes the limits of meatless BBQ (Slow smoked on mango wood BBQ’d Jackfruit with durian chutney anyone?). He hopes you will join him in his journey.
