Do you use a Charcoal Chimmy? If not you need to buy one as they are great and you do not need to use any light fluid. Here is a link to what they are and you can find them at any Lowes. The bigger one on the left is more $ but it light better and will out last two or three of the ones on the left. I have both gas and charcoal grills.
The Charcoal Chimney Starter

chimneys are awesome for coal starting

Pizza or mexican is my ideal Friday night, washed down with a couple of pints of Guinness.

But since I like to hit the gym on Friday nights I'll usually skip the Guinness at dinner and have them later on, but then of course 2 beers turns into 4 or 5 or 12.

When I was single, beer (tap, can, bottle, etc) used to be my dinner of choice on Fridays with maybe some form of restaurant appetizer.

Now that I'm married with a kid, I guess it's some place like Olive Garden on Fridays.

schneed, i think i was over your way last weekend. i was in a little pizza joint in manyunk(sp?) that had out of this world cheese steaks. and for me to say that is alot because i think Philly cheese steaks are almost as over rated as Michael Vick. i have already eaten at both Pat's and Geno's, and think they both suck

I'm going to guess you were at Delessandro's. They are the best in Philly, IMO. Manayunk has a couple other good places.

And I concur, Pat's & Geno's are way overrated. Though if you get them to use american cheese or provolone instead of the awful cheese wiz, then they're better.

I can never understand cheese wiz when you can have gooey melted american cheese all over your sandwich.

Born and raised in Philly...I like Delessandro's but Steve's Prince of Steaks is by far the best.

Small world. Growing up, I lived across the street from the Muddy Branch Giant...from time to time, I still hit Fingers and Claws down that way.

Best Italian is Il Porto in the Festival Shopping Center...
