    Royal Oak Lump Charcoal

    There are too many charcoal vendors on this site for me to take anyone at 100 percent. RO, Cowboy, B and B. Going to try Rockwood this weekend. We shall see.

    Stop. They all have foreign items in the bags. Its scrap lumber, not virgin pine.

    Royal Oak Lump Charcoal

    I get a lot of dust and small pieces in my US made RO, but I don't think that is terribly uncommon. I think it is fairly decent and reasonably priced at WalMart. Just looking for some alternatives.

    Royal Oak Lump Charcoal

    These were the pieces at the bottom of the bag. No dust or garbage and the pieces were still fairly decent sized.

    Royal Oak Lump Charcoal

    I just bought some B and B lump at Menards in STL. 6 bucks for an 8 lb bag. It looks good coming out of the bag. Consistent sizes and it all looks to be carbonized. Had the offset pit up to 300 in about a half hour. Choking it back now. So far so good.

    "Cowboy Lump Charcoal" (War Zone)

    I've been using RO for a while now and noticed I started getting very small pieces in the bag, even at the top.  I went to Walmart and they were out of RO, so I was forced to buy Cowboy.  The bag now says that is improved, for whatever that is worth.  I have to tell you, I was pleasantly...

    ThermoWorks ChefAlarm

    I have it and love it. I have used the Maverick for a long time and I like having the transmitter/receiver and I will buy more in the future. However, this unit's quality far exceeds Maverick. It doesn't have the transmitter/receiver, but it is very functional and extremely accurate. My next...

    Thermoworks Blue Therm Duo

    Thanks for the review. I have a buddy who helped me out on some mods to my pit so I gave him one of my two Maverick wireless gauges. I've been looking at this unit and I am finally going to pull the trigger. I'll ask for forgiveness after I order!!!!!!

    I am completely good now with these mods.  I am able to get well over 300 degrees in my CC.  One thing I noticed that is very important:  When I get in a hurry, I sometimes get my food in the CC before temp gets up to 300.  I'll throw it in at 240 or so then just level it off from there.  This...

    I don't have a pic yet, but I actually bolted the diffuser plate up against the fb wall without driling new holes.  I got some oversized washers and used the existing bolts which pull the plate up pretty snugly.  I still was getting a huge difference, upwards of 40 degrees right to left...

    I have experienced the same issue when I stop up the gap between the diffuser plate and the right side wall.  Heat goes way up on the right side.  I am going to try and bolt the plate to the wall,  Perhaps eliminating the gap by bolting the plate will make for an easier flow of air.???
