Overview
The Stanbroil Q017-24-SQ is a charcoal fire starter made from wax and wood, designed to light charcoal grills, smokers or fire pits without lighter fluid. Model number and materials point to a set of pressed fire starter cubes rather than a grill component.
Wax and wood fire starters work by giving charcoal a longer, steadier flame than paper alone, which helps briquettes or lump charcoal catch evenly. Stanbroil's charcoal-focused parts line covers accessories like this alongside chimney starters and charcoal baskets.

Who it's for
Charcoal grill or smoker owners who want a lighter-fluid-free way to start a fire. Not relevant to gas or electric grill owners.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- No lighter fluid needed to start charcoal
- Wax and wood burn longer than paper for a more even light
- Listing gives no count or burn-time detail
- Only useful for charcoal setups
Performance notes
Wax and wood fire starters burn longer than plain paper or kindling, giving charcoal more time to catch fully before it needs tending. This tends to produce a more even light than dousing charcoal with lighter fluid, without leaving a fuel odor behind.
