    When it comes to price, as Ricky Gervais would say, "I just don't care." I buy B&B, Rockwood, and FOGO lump in that order because they perform best for me (piece size/heat/burn time/minimum ash). I'm no spendthrift, but I'm happy to pay what the traffic will bear to get the results I like.

      As others have said, I think B&B has to be the baseline. If you are not satisfied, then branch out to higher price points.

        I have been happy with B&B. Not as happy with KB. The KB professional is better.

        I do use KB for “short” cooks, and had to use 12 to 15 of them to start a cooks, because my B&B supply got so low.

        I would always stock up during the sales… Which I haven’t seen in awhile. My local Ace seems to have a steady supply of B&B. 4to 6 bags when I go. Unfortunately it is not in the direction I typically travel. Have to make a special trip…

          Thanks @IFindZeroBadCooks.

          I’ll have to admit I’m feeling a bit stupid right now. 😊

          That's a great price for branded charcoal. I have never used that brand but I would try a bag at that price for sure.

            Just picked up 2 bags of B&B briquettes at Act for $13.99 for 17.6# (that's pounds for those of you that think that's a "hashtag"). Not great, but good enough.
