Yes, in fact that would be a a suitable substitute. Probably much better than mineral spirits or gasoline, as those two products are extremely flammable and much more volatile that Zippo fluid. Whatever you decide to use just be cautious when you strike a match to it so you can be around to enjoy your BBQ. Most flammable liquids are way more explosive than zippo fluid. Also, make sure all the coals are completely red before you begin cooking anything. That way the residue from whatever you use will have had a chance to burn away.

Can you use torch fuel in a Zippo lighter?

As an experiment, and after alot of time on Wikipedia, I'm in the process of trying this. I tipped a dribble of Coleman Fuel on the bottom of an upturned coffee mug and lit it. It burned beautifully with NO smoke. I tried it with proper Swan lighter fluid and it burned exactly the same but with plenty of smoke. My zippo is currently in bits on a radiator drying out so I can try it with pure Coleman fuel. At £6 for 500ml, it's a bit cheaper and alot more convenient if it works... I'll report back in an hour or two. Just tried it - perfect. Burns exactly like lighter fuel except perhaps even less smoke!
