Hot! Hot! Hot!

The Good Charcoal burns hotter, faster, and longer leaving less ash than other charcoal. We love it!!

Not good

I dont leave reviews and didn't ever think I'd write one for charcoal but this stuff is a waste of money. All tiny pieces and dust.

Don't waste your money on this charcoal, nothing but small pieces of charcoal. I filled a whole charcoal basket and lit it . When i came back, there was only half of the charcoal. If you are going for a long cook, don't use this.

reply from The Good Charcoal Team

Dear John,Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Our 100% hardwood Acacia charcoal is designed to burn hot and efficiently, and its dense nature means it can burn at higher temperatures than many other brands. Proper airflow management is crucial; if left with unlimited airflow, the charcoal can burn very hot and quickly. We recommend closely monitoring your grill's air intakes to maintain a steady temperature for longer cooks. If you'd like to discuss this further or need tips on optimizing your grilling experience, please contact us at Hello@TheGoodCharcoal.com. We want to ensure you have the best possible grilling experience.

Disappointing Purchase

This is the worst lump charcoal I have ever bought. There are no lumps, only pebbles that obstruct the air passage holes in the bottom of the kamado grill. Sams doesn't need to sell this.
