The Q segment of SVQ's Prime strip steaks cut from a Creekstone striploin.

Hey, I think I figured out how to get the animation up...!

MsTwiggy at Johnson's Home and Garden in Maple Valley. They are affiliated with Do It Best. If there is a Do It hardware store near you, they may carry it. They also carry Cowboy Brand Briquettes, which I like as well

Thanks for this ecowper !! I need to try out more lump so i can find something that will burn longer in the Kamado. Good to hear you like the Cowboy. I think with the quantities I’m looking at it would be great if I can find something reasonable. Seattle isn’t exactly que country and if the options aren’t limited they can be steep. 🔥🔥🐿️

MsTwiggy I really don’t like Cowboy lump …. I like FOGO lump and Cowboy briquettes. My top briq choices are Jealous Devil, Cowboy Brand, and Kingsford Pro …. If I absolutely must, I will use KBB. Not sure what other lump is out there that is worthwhile, maybe BGE lump?
