An improved prepackaged, inexpensive firebox for sale at retail stores for use in outdoor cooking on consumer supplied backyard grills or for use as a quick campsite campfire starter firebox or as a prepackaged firewood firebox for fireplaces or the like. The repackaged firebox is lightweight, portable, manageably sized for easy storage, semi-fire retardant, water repellant and completely fire consumable and can be used conveniently and safely by a novice consumer. The firebox is comprised of a specially designed cardboard container and a special arrangement of prepackaged layer combustible with kindling points varying sufficiently to ignite and maintain ignited a primary combustible layer such as hardwood mesquite logs found in the southwestern United States. The special arrangement of the layered combustibles produces a tieing effect within the cardboard container and further exert counter pressure against the top and bottom walls of the closed container in order to sustain rough treatment during shipment while maintaining the desired end use layered arrangement of the combustibles for starting a fire.
