Wow, what a fathers day!

Wow, what a Father’s day today was, my family simply loved the how the dinner turned out using Kingsford Charcoal for the first time. Having just purchased my first charcoal grill, I opted for Kingsford’s Charcoal and can’t tell you how extremely happy I am and how easy and simply it is to use with outstanding results. I mixed half regular charcoal with half mesquite charcoal for a great flavor and flawless cooking results. Thank you Kingsford!!!

this charcoal is to thin

I will never use this charcoal ever again it is too thin upon using it I added extra to the grill but as I started cooking that wasn't even enough. I would definitely not recommend this product ever again and I will no longer use Kingsford ever again.

used an abundant amount

When the storms of April 27th, ravaged Alabama , my Disaster Relief team at my church went into action, we began feeding people hot meals everyday, we used an outrageous amount of Kingsford Charcoal and starter fluid, we would not use any other kind, we still only use and will continue to use Kingsford it is the BEST, thank you so much....

Kingsford (New) Original Charcoal

I've always used Kingsford Charcoal for all my Weber grills, Smokey Joe, 18.5 Weber Grill and my 18.5 Weber Smoker, and the results are always good!! I've used the Mesquite for my steaks, burgers, etc. I've used the Hickory for my ribs and pulled pork and I've also used the (New) Apple when I'm using my Smoker, but the best part is how fast the charcoal lights up and retains the heat for a long period of time!!

Grillout at least 5 days a week

Kingsford charcoal original and Kingsford lighter fluid are the best there is. I have tried a lot of differant charcoal, they all gave the food a weird taste. I grill out at least 5 days a week. I have made everything beef,lamb, duck, goose, pizza, fish you name it I have grilled it. Even here in central Wisconsin, I grill in all weather, It is the best.

The only charcoal we will use.

My husband grills all year round, even in the winter here in Michigan. The only charcoal he will use is Kingsford, his favorite being Original. He refuses to use anything else. I bought cheaper brand one time, and he told me to either throw it away or use it myself. He was not going to grill until we had Kingsford again. Needless to say, I threw the cheaper stuff away and never made that mistake again. It is Kingsford or nothing at our house.

Why Kingsford?

My Dad used Kingsford exclusively and always said it worked better than ANY off brand he'd ever tried. They light faster, burn longer and hotter and just made grilling easier for him overall. Dad seems so much smarter now that I have gotten to 50 years of age. Imagine that!!

Great charcoal = great cooking

I have always used kingsford. I find it easy to light and able to cook on it quickly. good product for all grilling needs. I have also used with my cast iron cookware. does great for the baking of breads and cakes in my pots. fits in the rim of my pan just right for easy use

Poor heating quality throughout the meal.

Bought a new Weber grill a week ago thinking I would like to get into charcoal grilling again.Picked up a bag of Kingsford Original Charcoal.I am very unhappy with the heating time of the charcoal.Heated up hot for the first 15 minutes and after that could not get anymore heat out of the coals.

Family Staple

As a mom I like to save (time, money, childrens artwork, etc). Although, this brand can be $1-2 more expensive its worth it. Ive tried the generics from many stores and ive tried all the leading national brands. Nothing lights better or lasts longer than Kingsford.
