Mexican Chiminea

You can use your Chiminea just like the Mexicans used to, to cook and bake your food. They are also designed to keep the fires burning - even through the cold and wet seasons. Tradtional Mexican Chimineas are exported to many other countries, and their popularity has grown very quickly as an outdoor decorative garden feature.

Chimineas that are made of clay can break. You should first think about where you are going to put your clay chiminea before you have it at home. Since they are made of Clay they are typically heavy especially difficult to move. Once you know where you are going to place it, this means that there will be less movement and less chance of having an accident and breaking it. The location should be chosen with consideration to being free of over hanging trees or branches. The chiminea exhaust will have heat rising up and above and you do not want anything to be catching alight. Good locations are those that are flat and fireproof like rocks, bricks or concrete. This kind of surface is important because you will find when stoking the fire that hot ash may fall out. When you have chosen a solid and safe location, you should put about two inches of gravel or sand into the bottom of the clay chiminea to keep the hot coal off the clay.

It is also important to start of with small fires and it doesn't take much to get them going.

If you look after your chiminea and protect it from the changing weather conditions, it will only help to add life to it. There are covers plus other Chiminea accessories available.
