Overview
Extra-large lumps of dense South American quebracho blanco hardwood make up this charcoal, which the maker says supports strong airflow and controlled combustion. It contains no chemicals, no fillers and no additives.
The reason to buy is the heat range the maker claims: very hot searing and long, stable low burns, with low ash and few sparks. The limitation is that those numbers are the seller's claims and depend on the grill and airflow.
Who it's for
Cooks who sear steaks at high heat and also smoke brisket or pork shoulder will use the heat range and long burn. People who like small, uniform pieces for easy packing, or who cook on a tiny grill, may find the lumps too large.
Pros and cons
- Extra-large lump size
- Low ash per maker
- Resists sparks and popping embers
- No chemicals, fillers or additives
- No lump size dimensions given
- Burn figures are maker claims
- Works best with good airflow
- Single bag size listed
Performance notes
Dense quebracho wood holds heat and burns slowly, and large lumps leave room for airflow, which supports controlled combustion. The maker says it reaches high searing temperatures and holds a low, stable burn for long cooks, using less charcoal in low temperature smoking. Low ash helps keep airflow open.
