I've had a number of trees taken down and I always had the stump ground. Pretty reasonable prices from Pro Tree... I am curious as to what the kerosene does though. I've never heard of using that.
it just an old fashioned method of stump removal

There is a tree stump removal product called, "Stump Remover" that breaks down the wood fiber of stumps, leaving them porous. The porous wood then absorbs kerosene readily. After the porous wood is soaked with kerosene and ignited, it will burn away. The flame is a low, smoldering flame.
