Habib, making a coal fire is a fine art. You can't just whack some firelighters under the fahem, you need to do it properly. On the weekend I had a lot of fahem in the chimney and needed a perfect amount of firelighters to ensure it was going to burn effectively.
You can make it a fine art or just chuck some chunks of charcoal in and smoking chips and I bet you my left nut it will taste good.
You seen those hipster craft beer drinking pole smoking bbq dudes on youtube who have thousands of dollars work of bbq equipment and the wankery they go on with? Sure there is a bit of an art to certain things ,now look at those old hill billies who cook on anything . Food always looks great the hipster ones? What do they know they enjoy beer that taste like fruit they would probably baste meat with their own jizz and tell you how important is.
Practally anything taste good over coals with minimal effort.
What's going to taste better some high end restaurant serving peas covered in liquid nitrogen and bee piss that cost an arm and a leg or some old toothless street peddlers in Vietnam selling some form of meat on a stick for 20 cents?
