Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure comprise improved fuel ignition systems and apparatuses for use in a cooking apparatus. The improved fuel ignition systems and apparatuses comprise an igniter coil configured to be affixed to a firebox grate. The igniter coil comprises an upper portion and a terminal with a curved end. When combined, the igniter coil and the firebox grate act as a heat spreader in order to disperse heat and prevent the igniter coil from overheating.
