Kingsford Original Charcoal Briquettes, Fast Lighting BBQ Charcoal for Grilling, Authentic Wood Smoke Flavor, 8 lbs

Kingsford charcoal briquettes is one of the premium brands for charcoal briquettes but… I paid almost 8 dollars for an 8 pound bag of charcoal, which is extremely high for what you get. I understand price increases, but this is ridiculous. A dollar a pound for charcoal bricketts!

Kingsford Original Charcoal Briquettes are my favorite. I would have given it 5 stars straight through, but I think the price could be a little better even though it was the best priced. I am more price conscious these days considering I am just going to burn the product LOL. I have been using propane for the last 20 plus years and just decided to use charcoal again at least once in a while. So, Kingsford has been around forever as I used to buy them in the past....for a lot less. But that's cost-of-living folks. Have a great barbecue these really burn great.

I was not thrilled. Brand has a reputation, and one of the major brands and availability. But, Coals need to be replaced each time, they do not burn a "second time." Did work the first time, but I had to light it a few times before it delivered enough heat to reach the desired temperature. Nonetheless, good value for the price. Just be patient. It is an "old-school" product, in comparison to other options.

Kingsford charcoal always lights well, never goes out, and gives a good flavor to the food on my BBQ. My b.f. says he loves the BBQ taste and he gets hot too. I've experimented with all the brands, and Kingsford is the only brand I buy.

Most dependable charcoal on the market My family has been using it since I can remember… family bbq church picnic personal cookout it’s always kingsford charcoal

My son won't use anything else

My rating is based probably, my fault. But I thought I was getting the larger size bags instead of there small.

The product works as always. But... In the last few years, the company handled higher costs by adding grooves to the briquettes and changing the formula. They're much less dense. Cooking time has been greatly reduced. The higher end charcoal brands are a better value.

I typically don't have a problem with these charcoal, so I'm thinking I got a bad batch on this one. They would not light no matter what I used. I don't normally use lighter fluid and use a fire starter instead but when the fire starter was not getting the coals hot, we tried lighter fluid and still nothing. Ended up going to a closer store to buy more charcoal and had no issues.

We tried everything possible to turn it on and it didn't. We ended up using wood. Terrible I would not recommend!!
