Cuisinart CCG-190RB Portable Charcoal Grill, 14-Inch, Red

Q: How much lump charcoal would you use for this?

Depends on what you wanna cook..I use hardwood lump charcoal...about two handfuls to cook some babyback ribs last weekend...with a couple of hamburger patties...turned out perfect! Remember...the more you use the hotter the fire, you can always drop a couple more in to get it hotter.

Q: have never used a BBQ before! what do I need? coal ? what's an easy thing to cook ? any tips welcome!

I'm not very good at it myself, you can get match light coal. There are several brands. It lights the fastest and stays lit. Make a ball of newspaper and dryer lint(dryer lint is highly combustible) and loosely pile the coal on top, it needs air to burn. Light the paper and it all starts. To cook, hot dogs are easiest, burgers, vegetables. You can get recipes and cooking times on the Web. If you are scared of dropping things through the grate, there is a bbq cooking sheet made of silicone you can put over the grill to cook tricky things. There are no real rules. If you have a frying pan you can use that to make biscuits. Just make sure you cook outside, with no over hang. You put the grill in the shade under a tree, the flame can jump and set your tree on fire. It's not dangerous, but be aware since it's fire.

Q: Why do my glowing hot coals go out when I put the lid on? Vents open.

Not enough air flow. My husband found that you had to burn the charcoal a lot longer, than you normally would, to get a good bed of coals.

Q: What tools are required to assemble it?ow to assemble it

A screw driver very easy assembly
