Kingsford Match Light is the BEST!!

Kingsford Match Light is our favorite charcoal! We have used it for years. It is so easy to light and quick to heat. The price is great, too!

Easy to use

I like that I don't have to worry about lighter fluid overload. It's so easy to use. Just light the charcoal briquettes and wait.

Patience brings tasty steaks

Regular charcoal was out of stock. This charcoal can’t be lit with my electric starter but lit fine with a match. It takes a lot longer than electricity because you have to wait for all the lighter to dissipate before you can cook. But the fire was nice and hot, it successfully lost the lighter smell (patience!) and the steaks came out great.

best deal in town! look out summer here i come.

this was a great deal. the day before i purchased one 12lb bag for $18 at a grocery store, so for $5 more i got 20lbs more. bet your bottom dollar i took that other bag back immediately after. I definitely will be getting my charcoal for all my summer bbq’s from Sam’s Club from now on.

Old Charcoal that won't light.

This is not the matchlight that I've used before. It will not light! I bought this charcoal at the end of January when we thought we might have an ice storm and would need a way to cook. Now, just 4 months later, it will not light. It has been stored in a dry environment. I must have gotten the previous year's supply

Disappointing

Lighter fluid is most definitely needed!
