Depending on which type of grill you are using, the steps you need to take are a little different. For a coal-burning grill, you want to use very little lighter fluid on top of the coals when starting the fire. Let them smolder a little bit before adding more fluid. That way you can manage the fire and apply lighter fluid as needed to keep the fire going. For gas grills, you have to be a bit more careful. I suggest using a long lighter--or better yet--a match. Start up the gas, and quickly place the match inside. If you let it run too long, it will cause a huge fire and repeat your previous situation.

A charcoal grill is filled with charcoal pieces called "briquettes," which once set on fire will burn for some time.
