Light it with natural lump charcoal and a fire starter cube, a chimney starter or an electric starter. Never use lighter fluid: the ceramic absorbs it and it flavors the food.
Building it in? Print the cut-out template at full size and check it against the grill on site before cutting. Leave room behind the grill for the dome to open.
