A friendly alternative to lumpwood charcoal

[Eddie]

The restaurant grade charcoal that I had was not self lighting belive me. The barbies and the restaurant grade may be two different products?

I don't think it is meant to be, it's just the way Lakelands describe it. I've looked at the descriptions on the Barbie website and as I mentioned earlier, other than packaging I can't see any difference.
Anyway, Ed will you be bringing these to Rudgewick in August??

Keith, there's no competition at Rudgwick this year I'm afraid.

Aahh in that case I won't go , I just thought that as Rudgewick was shown on the Events Calendar there would be an IBQN event.

You may have to ask Davie for a sample as I have given the rest for him to try out.

Thanks for that, I'll see how the bank balance is, as it is quite expensive for casual/non competition use, and as I was advised, I do have quite a stock of cocoshell

Hi guys,

Off the back of this thread i recently ordered 2 bags of Restaurant Grade charcoal from Makro and it has been excellent, does anyone know if they sell the same charcoal at Costco? I don't drive but have the opportunity to get a lift somewhere in a few weeks (grab a load of good meat while im there too) and i don't own a business so cant get a Makro card and don't like the idea of repeatedly handing over £6 delivery charge to Makro which could be spent on something useful like ribs or wood chunks.

Thanks in advance

edit: actually it seems that not just anybody can get a costco card, now im stumped. The curse of living in a small town that can't provide baby back ribs

No, Costco doesn't sell this - they do sell briquettes though, but from memory I think they are the self lighting type. Booker does sell restaurant charcoal though.
