Asked my girlfriend to buy โ€œKingsford charcoalโ€ & she came back with Matchlight. Always heard that the meat will taste like lighter fluid, but had no choice. Burned it about 10 mins longer in the chimney than usual & can report no kerosene taste! I wonโ€™t make a habit of using it, but it can be done.

I bought a bronco and made a pork butt for my first cook. Used Kingsford blue bag without thinking about it and all I could taste is Kingsford charcoal, almost no smoke. Suggestions on better coal?

Charcoal users...whatโ€™s your go to charcoal? Iโ€™ve only ever purchased Kingsford Blue.

Felt like Iโ€™ve always had good luck with it. I was given a bag of some hippy wholefoods charcoal that sucked.

Any other high quality suggestions?

Does charcoal(Kingsford original specifically) go bad if stored airtight?

I have a 55 gallon drum, thatโ€™s airtight that I usually fill with Kingsford original when it goes on sale around Memorial Day and that lasts me through the year. I did less smoking this year so still have some at the bottom of the barrel. I also just found that my local bargain store has 18lb bags for $5.

Iโ€™ve done this for the last couple years, but never really thought about if being airtight was a problem or a preservative. Also wondering if I should dump what I have left, fill it with new and then top off with the oldest charcoal first

Thoughts?

Has anyone tried the Kingsford "long burning" charcoal?

They say it's good for smoking, but how does it compare to their regular charcoal or just using lump instead of briquette? Just curious about other people's experiences before I try it.

The bigger dish is first pull from a 100g jar at room temp, froze 24 hrs, then added a 2nd pull that was done at low heat. Froze another 24 and took this photo while setting up to dry.

Kingsford charcoal lighter fluid?

I live in California and I'm having a really hard time finding hexane, naphtha (which is banned anyways), xylene, etc. I'm going to try the evap test with the kingsford lighter fluid, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this. I know I'm definitely not the only one in California trying to extract my own DMT ๐Ÿ˜‚

I've done research, it seems to be super mixed. Some people use it and like it, others say it's horrible.

Edit: I meant I cant find heptane.
