My CharCones smokes a lot right after I light it. Is that normal?
Yes. CharCones uses natural materials like paper and wood to ignite the charcoal. Most people are used to starting charcoal fires with lighter fluid and other petroleum distillates. Those chemicals offer an impressive fire with less smoke, but can taint the flavor of grilled food (not to mention burn a few arm hairs if youre not careful!). We like to say, where theres real fire, theres smoke.
