time saver with taste!

After buying and trying for the first time last year...we are hooked. Our family always cook out on the CHARCOAL grill year round. The convienence is exceptional in time, cost and flavor! Thanks, the ARDEN FAMILY.

easy

I like to grill out, but my husband isn't always home when it is time to start the grill. I started buying Match Light because I knew I could strike a match and in no time, I have the food on the grill. This is my favorite brand and always will be!

match light

honestly i have been a fan of kingsford for a while, but the matchlight makes it that much better. you never have to worry about not having lighter fluid or using too much or too little lighter fluid.

Even I can light Match Light

After years of being shut out of the BBQ world, I tried Match Light and now I'm the Queen of BBQ. Thanks so much for making a briquet that even the lighting-impaired can handle.

The best

My husband and I love your Match Light charcoal. We have a gas grill but prefer charcoal for cooking most meat--steaks and burgers especially. We've tried lower priced, similar products and they just don't do the job as well as Kingsford.

OLD MAN

At age 60 I am not going to waste my time waiting for anything that takes a long time. This is my main reason for liking MATCHLIGHT. It lights faster than any other products of it's type.

bad charcoal

I have bought two bags of the Match Light and kept them in the bag in a sealed 5 gallon bucket. They light well on the 1st two uses then after that I have ended up throwing the rest of the bag away because they will not light.

Hi James! We’re sorry that our Match Light briquettes burned too quickly for you. We wouldn’t expect for this to happen to you. Our Match Light briquettes are formulated to be ready to cook within 10 minutes of being lit, so we suggest that you place the food you are cooking on the grill sooner than you would when using most other briquettes. For us to help resolve this for you, call us at 1-800-232-4745 Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM-5:30 PM EST. For expedited service, please provide the phone representative with the following reference number: 170222-001155. Thank you!
