Just an FYI.......
I was curious as to why Kingsford (and most other) brand Charcoal said to wait 15 minutes/until ashed over after the coals are lit. And depending on their response, if it's okay to add unlits later. So I emailed them and asked. Here is a paste of their email response:
Thank you for contacting us about your Kingsford Regular Charcoal. We always appreciate hearing from our consumers.
You need to wait for the charcoal to ash over before putting the meat on so that the food doesn't taste like lighter fluid. You can add more regular charcoal to the existing but never add Match Light to existing charcoal.
Again, thank you for contacting us.
