I made a bunch of starters for my charcoal chimney from petroleum jelly and cotton balls. They worked really well. I got the jelly at Walmart for a couple of dollars. Melt the jelly in a can and dip the cotton balls in the liquid. Set them aside to dry. Be careful, petroleum jelly is flammable. I melted mine on top of my firebox while tending my fire.
