Great for bbq

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First bbq of the season and we were thrilled with this. The food tasted amazing and the heat was distributed evenly. It lasted a long time and the ash wasn’t too bad when we were finished. High quality all around

Good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Charcoal is absolutely amazing! It burns so evenly and provides that perfect smoky flavor every time. Whether you’re grilling, heating, or just setting the mood, it works wonders. I’ve never had a better experience with anything else – it’s truly a game-changer!

Burns hot and longer! Clean charcoal

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A large bag of 27 lbs, this chemical free lump charcoal burns hot and long. Used it for grilling and its smoky flavor in chicken was very good. Burnt longer and clean. With only little ash remains, it burnt for long and stayed hot for longer cooking. The pieces in the bag are mixed sizes.

Bbq

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently picked up Good Charcoal Company's lump charcoal, and I have to say, it really surprised me! We barbecued today since it was our first spring like day, cooking up ribs, steak, corn, and veggies—all of which had a fantastic smoky flavor. The charcoal lit up quickly and kept burning for a long time. Loved how it enhanced the taste of our food, I definitely recommend giving this one a try. Packaging was also great and holds up well.

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This premium acacia hardwood lump charcoal burns hot, clean, and with very little ash—making it perfect for searing and fast grilling. It lights quickly, delivers consistent heat, and has a pleasant, mild smoky flavor. A big bonus is its ethical sourcing: it’s FSC-certified and supports sustainable harvesting in Namibia. Some bags may have smaller pieces or burn faster than expected for long smokes, but overall, it’s a top-tier choice for backyard grillers who care about performance and impact.

Chemical Free

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Good Charcoal lump charcoal is different from what I’ve tried in the past. It’s lump shape instead of briquettes which I actually really like. What I love about this particular charcoal is that it is chemical free and there are no additive’s which is important to me when I’m using it to cook my food. We prefer cooking with charcoal because of the flavor and this gave our food good flavor and the food seemed to cook evenly and the charcoal didn’t burn out fast like some other brands. This is also such a good value! It’s only around $19 for a very large bag of charcoal, you can’t beat the price, I was so surprised when I picked it up because I didn’t expect it to be this big.

Good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We don’t use charcoal very often, but I forgot how good burgers taste cooked over charcoal. These were easy to light and get hot. Ash residue was normal. The bag ripped easy though.. overall I recommend.

Decent price, but I had issues...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Lots of ash on the bag before I even opened it, which was a concern right there. It made me think there might be lots of small pieces, which there were, so I wasn't happy about that. I felt there were too many small pieces, so we added a second grate on top, and that helped keep all the lumps where we wanted them instead of having them fall through the grate. If you don't mind using a second grate, then this charcoal is just fine. Adds a mild smokey flavor to your BBQ foods. And our chicken cooked evenly.
