Hi, I'm Michael–Inventor & Founder of RocketFire

My friends and I struggled for years to find the perfect solution to light our grills with ease and I knew we couldn’t be the only ones- so I started researching the problem. I noticed that 60 million grills have been produced without fire starters, and while there are standalone fire starters out there that do the trick, none of them are fast or easy to use. This ultimately inspired me to create RocketFire.

“It currently took forever to light our kamado style grill. There were good ways, but not a great way…and so I designed over the last 6 years, a great way to start a fire.”

Fully crowd funded

We first launched RocketFire on Kickstarter back in 2019, but wound up canceling the campaign and redesigning the product to allow for flexible fuel options. After more rigorous testing we reintroduced the product on Kickstarter and became fully funded.

The RocketFire is unlike any other fire starter out there. Not only does it work exactly how it’s meant to, but we spent 6 years designing and testing it to ensure it’s the safest, easiest, and fastest fire starter out there.
