Duraflame Hardwood Charcoal - Good Stuff!

[j0k3r-x]

Has anybody tried Duraflame Hardwood Lump Charcoal? I bought 2 - 8.8lb bags and I think it is as good as RO if not a little better. I noticed it in the grocery store and thought I would give it a try since RO is getting harder and harder to find. Check out the website to see what stores carry it around the country. It burns long and hot - Give it a try! I am very picky about this stuff and I wouldn't mention it if I didn't think it was up to standards!

It's actually briquettes not lump right??? I almost bought some at Publix because they were out of lump, but decided not too because it does have 5% binder which I think was corn starch or something like that...So you say it burns nice and clean??? hmmm might have to give it a go.

Some of this stuff actually uses nitrates I have heard. It's basically 2/3 of black powder LOL! Dunno about this brand in particular tho. Still better than the "matchlite" stuff...OMG. Someone should be drawn and quartered for that stuff.

If you look at the link he posted , click the right arrow three times , you get to a 100% hardwood lump charcoal . I think that is the one the OP was talking about.

Yeah, I saw that. I bought the 100% hardwood lump made from Hickory,Oak and Maple wood. I don't use the briquettes but they do make those also.

Never heard of that kind of lump. The naked whiz site thinks it's allright. Good find!!

That's a great site "Naked Whiz's Lump Charcoal Database" I had not seen that before. It's pretty good charcoal, smells great also. The only thing not so great was the price, I paid about $5.79 a bag. I got it a Sweetbay Supermarket and everything there is high.
