Q: What is used in these as the filler to compress the wood charcoal together in order to form the briquette shape?

    Our power was out due to rain. My home all electric. No gas. Stupid me, I forgot to refill the propane for my gas grill. Thank God I had my old charcoal grill, and my neighbor had charcoal. I was able to feed 12 hungry guests, and it was all thanks to the charcoal.

    No issues what so ever, it idint take long for it to light up, and the ash is honestly alright to clean after. It has that charcoal smell and it does hold up well. I would say pretty sustainably.

    Kingsford charcoal is my go to when doing hot and fast cooks on the grill. It lasts a good time while cooking and gives the food a good flavor. And once I close the vents up there's some left for the next cook.

    In my family, we mean business when it comes to our BBQ. We don’t trust anything other that Kingsford Original Charcoal. I remember being a little girl and watching my Dad use them and now as an adult with a family of my own, it’s all I use as well. When it comes to the perfectly even heat, long burn time, and clean ashes, there is just no comparison. My favorite meals have always been cooked over Kingsford Original Charcoal!

    It burns really well once you get it going. The hard part is getting it started sometimes. Haven't really noticed much of a flavor from this charcoal in the years using it.

    Who don't love to grill out? These hold the heat and the food tastes great! The package is very easy to open and it's not heavy either. There are ashes after cooking but not alot.

    I use Kingsford charcoal because it lights easy and burns longer. It has great heat and no bad flavor, and you don't have to worry about unburned briquettes because it all burns away to ash.

    Great for Cooking, But Takes Time to Light

    We’ve used Kingsford charcoal several times and while it’s great once it’s lit, getting it started can be a bit of a process. It usually takes a lot of effort to get the coals going, which can be frustrating when you’re trying to grill quickly. However, once it’s lit, it burns evenly and does an excellent job cooking food with that classic charcoal flavor. I do wish they’d improve the lighting process to make it faster and easier. Overall, a solid option if you don’t mind spending a little extra time to get started.

    This charcoal is my grilling go-to. It lights quickly in my chimney and the coals burn evenly for a good long time. It doesn’t leave any weird flavors in my food either. I also appreciate that you can buy it in different sized bags depending on the need.
