cinder
Partly burned coal
A cinder is a small piece of partly burned material—coal, wood, or volcanic rock—that has stopped flaming but may still glow.
Cinders are the residue left after a fire burns down: The campfire had collapsed to cinders.
A cinder track is made from volcanic ash or furnace slag.
To burn to a cinder is to char something thoroughly, usually food.
