MB Fire Starters

1st time seeing these and have to give them a try. My fat lighter splits work pretty good and at $10 these are a little pricey. Anyone else used these ?

Never used them or any other pre-made fire starters.
I make my own out of cutdown paper towel tubes, torn up paper towels , and some vegetable oil.
They work pretty good with either lump or briquettes.

I use these Rutland Fire Starter squares, which look to be the same as Masterbuilt.

I get them at Tractor Supply when they're on sale for about $12 for 144 squares. Right now, they're at $15. At Amazon they're $22.

Thanks I'll try to find some. Our Tractor Supply doesn't offer much for smoking/grilling

I shop on line to check inventory, then go pick them up

Perfect! I like the Tumbleweeds they just will not fit in the slot on the 560 / 1050 . And the Rutland is definitely a better deal!

I have tried Royal Oak Fire Starter squares, Tumbleweeds, and Fatwood in my 560. I like the Fatwood the best of these three.

Finally got to use them yesterday and that's the easiest light I've had. Used 2 squares and she was was up and running. But I will surely stock up on Rutland squares for the difference in $$
