Never used one of those, but it appears that the way you have the wood set up, it had to have caught on fire. Is there a way you could place it to smolder without active flames?

Placed the wood? I guess I could have just laid them on top of the coals. I poured the lit coals from the chimney starter into the center, and only center, of the unlit coals. I "dug" out a hole to place them in. Following the Minion Method. Not sure how else I could put or have put the wood other than just on top. But I was basing my placement off of everything else I've seen in pictures.
