It sold out instantly... might be a fun thing to buy and keep as a collector I suppose.

[smokin fool]

Hey, why not....surprised they haven't done this earlier like JD has they're own wood chips.

[Panhead John]

Even if I was interested in trying it, which I’m not, it’s $12. for a 4 lb. bag….plus shipping. Ain’t nobody’s charcoal worth $3.00 plus per lb.

[gboss]

I'm pretty sure those KFC duraflames ended up on woot.com a few months later for cheap. Still not cheap enough to actually pay real money for one though...

[Andrrr]

Way better than having to drink it

[rlozinak]

It is probably as bad as there beer!

[Attjack]

I'm on the lookout for these.

[Huskee]

Waiting now for meat-infused charcoal. [eyeroll].

[STEbbq]

I'm a tad unclear how they can reduce water enough for charcoal infusions.

[Huskee]

Right, considering any light beer is 95% water. I guess "magic" would be the answer.

[snowswamp]

So this isn’t an Onion article or SNL skit?

[Huskee]

Without Googling it, I wonder if they're using spent wort/mash, drying it, grinding it up, and adding some powder to the mix before making the briquettes...

[BourBonQ]

Not a flavor profile I'd be anxious to try anytime soon. Beer, yes. Dried and burnt wort/mash... maybe not so much.

[Huskee]

BourBonQ I agree. The thing is, any flavored charcoal is being BURNT and the smoke is the flavor so whatever flavors their marketing departments are claiming are there are being burnt into smoke. How can smoke give a garlic or orange or beer flavor? I have a hard time believing in flavored charcoal, unless it's wood flavor. I am willing to be proven wrong and would love to learn I am in fact wrong!

What caught my eye was the book of bad ideas. If there’s a volume II I have some excellent material for a chapter or two.
