✅ Quick and Efficient

Get your coals red-hot faster than ever. Our intelligently designed airflow system gets you from ignition to searing heat in no time, so you're grilling quicker and cleaner.

✅ Versatile Design

Why stop at just starting coals? Pair it with our Chimney Grill Top to convert it into a portable mini-BBQ — perfect for quick snacks, on-the-go camping, or cooking directly over the chimney. Two tools in one, no extra space needed.

✅ Unmatched Durability

Built from 2mm Australian Mild Steel, this unit weighs in at a solid 4kg — a far cry from the flimsy sub-1kg imports.

• Holds 3.5+kg of charcoal

• Designed to handle high heat again and again

• Optional 5mm Grill Top turns it into a true outdoor powerhouse

💪 Why Choose Ours?

• ✅ Proudly made from Australian steel

• ✅ Efficient airflow for fast lighting

• ✅ Great for camping, balconies, and backyard BBQs

• 💥 Built to take a beating — season it, and it’ll last for years

✅ Built to Last:

Engineered to withstand extreme temperatures without warping, the Smokey BBQ Charcoal Chimney is designed for years of reliable use. No matter how rough you treat it, this chimney will be your trusty grilling companion for countless cookouts!

🔍 Why We Use Mild Steel Instead of Stainless Steel:

✅ Superior Heat Retention

Mild steel heats up faster and holds heat better than stainless. This means:

• Faster coal ignition

• More even and sustained heat

• Better performance in high-temp cooks

Stainless steel tends to reflect heat, while mild steel absorbs and radiates it, giving you that consistent, powerful BBQ zone you want.

✅ Ideal for Seasoning (Like a Cast Iron Pan)

Mild steel can be seasoned with oil to create a natural, non-stick and rust-resistant surface, much like cast iron cookware. Over time, it develops a tough, protective coating that:

• Improves with use

• Enhances flavor over time

• Helps prevent rust when looked after properly

Stainless steel can't be seasoned the same way, and once it discolors or blisters under high heat, there's no going back.

✅ Stronger and More Durable Under High Heat

Stainless can become brittle or warp under extreme or prolonged heat, especially thin, cheaper grades used in some BBQ accessories.
Our 2mm mild steel can handle repeated high-temp abuse — it’s less likely to warp or degrade like stainless-steel and is built to last years with proper care.

✅ Cost-Effective Without Sacrificing Strength

High-quality stainless is expensive — and often unnecessary for outdoor cooking tools that don’t need corrosion resistance as their main feature.
Mild steel gives you:

• Better performance for the price

• More thickness, more durability

• A BBQ tool that performs like commercial gear

🧼 Maintenance Is Easy:

• Just like cast iron: apply a thin layer of cooking oil after use

• Store dry and covered if possible

• Season it well and it will only get better with age

🔥 Bottom Line:

Mild steel performs better, costs less, and lasts longer when treated right.
It’s what serious BBQers and pitmasters prefer — and it’s why we use it in our gear at Smokey BBQ Bits.
