Hurricane Laura gifted me with more red oak and hickory than I can use for firewood, so I just make my own lump. Store bought is for lazy people!

Kamado Joe Big Block lump in a BGE. Chunks the size of your shoe, burns hot.

I started a thread a while back ranking lump charcoal that I've used, and that others have used as well, if that helps.
Well done!

I use lump.
But I love coconut briquettes. I can just never find them.
They burn blue.

I picked up a bag of Masterbuilt lump this weekend from Walmart. It wasn’t bad. Good size chunks and seemed to be fairly uniform. Better than a lot of others. I think it was 14-15 dollars for a 16 lb bag.

Bumping an old thread
Has anyone used the char-logs? Looking for something to last longer on a long smoke. Does the fogo really make a difference?

I really like the B&B char logs now that I have had the chance to use them. Cleaner than briquettes and longer than just lump. I've mostly mixed the logs with whatever other kind of charcoal I have on hand.

I was just about to come here and ask about these. I have used them once and really like the. However, what are they? Are they briquets molded on the log shape?

So, we mentioned that these Char-Logs are made from the remnants from making oak and hickory lump charcoal. These charred remnants are ground into powder and then compressed under fantastic pressure to form the logs that you will see below. It is notable that there is no binder used. Because B&B doesn't cook their charcoal at really high temperatures, there is still enough plant cell membrane in the charcoal powder to bind the charcoal when compressed. The resulting logs are dense, about 1¾" in diameter with a 5/16" hole down the middle. The majority of the logs are between 1" and 5" in length.

FOGO lump always. Black bag for grilling or quick cooks. Gold bag for long smokes.

Small chimney of lump to start and pecan splits. Best thing I did for my food quality was start feeding my offset smoker splits instead of charcoal.
I’ve tried all the lumps, XL, higher end stuff like the Red devil?, and nothing compares to a single split.
Better airflow, cleaner smoke, and easier temp control.

I am briquette all the way. They burn evenly and you know what you’re gonna get. Lump is naturally and pure…wtf does that mean, really? I’ve never had an issue with briquettes tasting bad, not once. Kingsford every time. Why are briquettes all of a sudden bad? They’ve worked fine for decades.

You’re trying to make a point but telling me to do it. Why don’t you tell me what you’re left with. Change my mind.
