Nothing compares.

I purchased a simple charcoal bbq about 8 years ago to replace my beat up propane unit. I’ve tried every brand of charcoal, but always return to Kingsford. It is clearly outperforms anything on the market! Worth every penny! Lights quick and easy, coals ash over fast, and the burn time is second to none. My dad used Kingsford, and my kids will too. Keep up the great quality. You have a customer for life! By the way, I will never go back to propane either. Living in Canada where the winter temps drop to -40, Kingsford still performs!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Never Let Me Down

I got a Pit Barrel Cooker two years ago and powered it by Kingsford Original Charcoal the burn has never let me down. When not using a wood chunks to smoke with just the charcoal alone imparts a great flavor to anything cooked. It always lights easily and ready to cook in a very short time. I look forward to many more cooks using Kingsford Charcoal.

disappointed

I've been using Kingsford Charcoal for over 40 years now. Kingsford has always been the best and totally consistant until the last couple of years. First you shrank the coals so they didn't burn as long. Cooking indirectly I went from adding coals after an hour, to having to add coals after the first 40 minutes. It was just inconvienent, I adjusted my times was all. Now two years ago you changed the charcoal again. You made it a bit larger and a little denser. For grilling the charcoal is ok, but when cooking indirectly with the denser charcoal is a disaster. First I couldn't get the barbeque over 300 degrees. Next when I added charcoal after 40 minutes, the additional charcoal never lit. Well they burned maybe 1/8" and then went out. The barbeque just kept getting cooler and cooler and I had to take those beautiful pork spare ribs and give them to my wife to put into the oven. I was so disappointed I could barely eat one bite of those ribs. I guess I'm going to have to start searching for a new charcoal to use. I've always used Kingsford because of it's consistancy and quality. I'm very disappointed that such an all time great product ruined themselves like this. Kingsford once had the best charcoal out there, maybe someone in the company will listen and retool to make their charcoal back into the supurb quality product that it used to be.
