I buy 3 to 4 bags a month. Cook on my grill 3 or 4 times a week.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed

I’ve been using your product since I was a teen. Everything was fine up until a couple of years ago when I noticed the coals didn’t appear to be as hot as they used to be. I thought it was my Weber grill so I cleaned it and the same problem. Then I started to read reviews of people with the same observations. My problems used to be how to keep the heat down, now I can’t even sear a steak.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for being a loyal fan of our Original Charcoal. It's disheartening to hear we let you down this time, and we certainly wouldn't expect you to experience difficulties keeping our charcoal hot. So we can learn more about what happened, we encourage you to reach out to us directly at 800-232-4745 with reference number 210628-000518. We hope to hear from you soon.

Kingsford is the only charcol we use.
its to hot to use the oven in summer so we grill every night.Kingsford lights quickly,evenly so you only taste the quality of Kingsford charcole and not lighter fluid. Nothing better!!!!

We appreciate you sharing your concerns with us, Hank, and we'd like to address this for you. While the weight of each briquette has changed, the new bags are the same size, have the same number of briquettes, and the same number of uses as he old Kingsford briquettes plus they are ready to cook on earlier. So we can earn back your confidence, we hope you'll give us a call at 800-232-4745 with reference number 210604-000172. We hope to hear from you soon.
