Here's a quick and easy way to make charcoal at home, for grilling, pyrotechnics, drawing/sketching, or anything else you need charcoal for.
Make a batch of charcoal using the mound method then stored it in baskets for later use. The result is a nearly pure carbon fuel that burns hotter than wood without smoke and with less flame. Charcoal was primarily a metallurgical fuel in ancient times but was sometimes used for cooking too.
