Hi! This is Mark Sullivan for Expert Village and today we are going to show you how to build a fire in your backyard barbecue pit. Now I do not personally use any lighter fluid anywhere near my food because I just don't use lighter fluid. So the first thing we do is since we are not going to be using lighter fluid is I really think it is more environmentally sound for us to recycle what we have and this is a pretty primitive type of fire making and so we are not using a whole lot of extra resources. In a pinch, this is what you will need to know. So basically you have a whole in the ground, a containment area, a grill that you can put your food on and you are going to put the newspaper in the bottom, so I am going to get some more newspaper.
