The search function should be working so give it a shot. There are alot of threads about lighting naturals.

Glottis' way is probably the fastest. I usually just use my stove, but like I said in the past, sometimes the coals produce a little smoke and make the house smell bad. Whatever you use, just make sure they are well lit so you don't have a bad taste during your smoke session.
