Hi!
While reading the article on starting the smoker using the minion method, the author made it sound like putting unlit charcoals could cause a health risk. Is this true? Why? The only thing I could think of is that maybe unlit charcoal has some sort of additive so that it lights and that could be a health issue.
If this is the case, how much of a risk is it? I'm guessing minimal because I throw unlit coals on the grill all the time, and I'm still living. :-D
Thanks!
