Kingsford Original Charcoal Briquets, 18.6 Lb., 2 Count

I've been using this product for the last 20 years, I won't use anything else. It's perfect. It's just getting harder to find the 2-20 pound bag deals for cheap anymore..

Can't beat this charcoal for the money. Versatile and consistent. Burns hot and long. My go to for just about everything.

I've used only Kingsford briquets for a very long time, probably 30 years or more. The product is great quality, with no variance between purchases. It lights easily, burns predictably, and makes great smoke. My cooks will often be 100 lb. pork chops, 10 to 16 Boston butts, 20 or more chicken halves, ribs by the case, or as many as 25 steaks. I really do not want to use any other brand.

Live in Minnesota, grill and smoke all year round. I rely on Kingsford to provide the constant heat and performance necessary in 10 below weather. Other Brands just don't measure up. I use a lot of charcoal so larger packaging would interest me greatly or possibly a full pallet purchase from the factory... is that possible?

I have mostly given up my gas grill to use my charcoal grill with kingsford fueling the way. I always have made some great barbecued foods but kingsford charcoal lasts longer starts faster and makes food taste better than any other charcoal that I have tried. I keep as many bags stored as I have room to keep as I do not want to ever run out!

I'm not the grilling expert in our house (hubby does all that), but I can tell you that he almost refuses to use any other charcoal, and the food come out excellent each time, without a lot of effort lighting the grill or keeping it going at the right temp. Only charcoal I would recommend to anyone.

I've been using your product since I was a teen. Everything was fine up until a couple of years ago when I noticed the coals didn't appear to be as hot as they used to be. I thought it was my Weber grill so I cleaned it and the same problem. Then I started to read reviews of people with the same observations. My problems used to be how to keep the heat down, now I can't even sear a steak.

Have any of the experts in your packaging, design, marketing or sales departments attempted to successfully open a bag of your briquets, using the instructions on the bag "Open From End On Front"? I have tried many times over several years and this method failed, CONSISTENTLY!!! I would include an image but your system did NOT allow.

Have to change my review of a few weeks ago. This new stuff with the chalk like flacks is pretty bad. I cannot control the temperature. It starts too hot, so I adjust the dampers, then it gets too cool. I'm going to have to change to a different brand unless Kingsford goes back to the real "original". I have been using Kingsford exclusively for over 40 years.

I bought this product a week ago, and have used it to grill fish, steak and squash. Each time it was more difficult to start, but once the fire was started, it created a lot more smoke than previous bags of Kingsford Original. It imparted to the food an unpleasant chemical taste. This charcoal is totally different from the Kingsford Original that was packaged in the bag with the "100th Anniversary" logo. It is the worst Kingsford product I have ever purchased!
