| Density.
Our charcoal is made from a
blend of two types of hardwoods: oak and mesquite.
These woods are high density. That means several
things. First, high density woods burn hotter than
softwoods. Second, they burn for a longer time.
Also, charcoal bags of hardwoods are smaller in size than
those bags that contain softwood charcoal. |
|
|
A lot of charcoal from
competing brands is made with softwoods. That charcoal
ignites fast, but burns for a shorter time and produces less
heat than charcoal made out of hardwoods. |
| Size matters.
A great bag of charcoal will
have a mix of small-medium size pieces and also medium-large
size pieces. Our double screening process allows
us to only pack good size pieces of charcoal in the bags.
All the very small pieces and dust are separated and used to
make our briquettes. The small-medium sized pieces
will make your fire start fast and the medium-large sized
pieces will make your fire last longer.

Many other competitors don't
have a rigorous screening process and a lot of dust and very
small particles end up in the bags. That dust and very
small pieces do not contribute to produce heat in your grill.
Those bags are messy and customers pay for the weight of
those particles too. |
