Charcoal products from Mexico
We produce lump and briquette charcoal and pack it in any bag size from 5 to 20 pounds. Our charcoal is a mix of high density Mexican hardwoods, so it lasts longer and burns hotter than most other charcoal products.
Lump Charcoal
Made from 100% hardwood, oak and mesquite. Double screened so the bag has the right mix of piece sizes and a minimum of dust.

Briquettes
As natural as it gets. Made from hardwood charcoal and a plant-based binder. No chemicals, no additives, no limestone, no coal.

Charcoal Starting Grate
A great alternative to chimney starters. Works with lump charcoal or briquettes, and it's safer because you don't have to handle and dump burning coals.
