Kingsford all the way! Nice slow burns for me.

Kingsford to start, wood for the cook, I know charcoal is cheaper, but I like to use the wood

It's a couple bucks higher but I've been real impressed with Kingsford "Hickory".

I've had be best luck with Royal Oak lump along with a little of the Kingsford blue. I've tried Cowboy a couple of times but get too many sparkles.

Just tossing in my 2 cents. I start with half a bag of Kingsford laid out over my base logs. Fill the chimney to overflowing and fire that up. When I toss in the lit chimney I add whatever was left in the bag over the lit coals and add my other logs to get things going. I cook solely with wood after that but I have taken to keeping some homemade lump handy in case I miss judge the fire and things get too cool. That lump will revive my coal bed quicker than anything short of a can of diesel fuel, and the diesel just doesn't go with brisket.

I've heard about that European charcoal too. Isn't it called the Frankknowsaguy brand?

[Smokeone]

I think Rick is onto something there.

I'm going to drop the knowledge on you guys here. There are only three brands of charcoal.

Ozark Oak
B&B
Wicked Good.

That is all.
