We’ve always been a Kingsford family and these new charcoals are great, wood chips and charcoal in one! Flavor is elevated on the grill.

The only charcoal that last long with out so much fluid. The flavor is just right not to over powering just enough to notice the apple flavor. Family favorite.

My husbands favorite brand of charcoal is Kingsford. It’s easy to light and the briquettes heat up better than other brands.

Emmmmmm
Kingsford needs to make more of this product and make buyers buy more of it. I can't find it in August and I live in Minneapolis. Seriously? I still have September to get through yet and that's my biggest grilling month. I'm willing to drive along way for it too. Food just isn't the same without it. I'd recommend this product to a friend, but then I'd have too many friends. Lol. Whenever I have people over for grilling, they always want to know what my secret is. ...and I can't tell em because I'm already having trouble getting my hands on this stuff. I never show them the bag either. Yes folks, it's that serious. Next time I find em, I'm buying the whole pallet of em, no joke. I'm gonna back my pickup right up to the front door and take em all. Lol. At least I might get through the whole summer then. Thanks Kingsford, I'm thinking about moving just so I can find and use this stuff all year.

Heck we even barbecue during the winter

Love the flavor!
We use it to slow cook chicken in a smoker. We love the flavor the briquettes impart in the food.

Stay Away
I bought this product hoping to get not only a good wood and charcoal taste, but I was really disappointed not only did I not get any wood taste the coals didn't even stay lit long enough to cook some simple burgers. Safe to say I will not be buying this again, so anyone considering this one please run away and get something else

Amazing!
I use a charcoal chimney to get lit. No fluid necessary.. paper towel or small fire starter cube. This charcoal has a sweet & flavorful smoke that adds a wonderful flavor to foods and smell to the back yard. I cant tell you how many times my neighbors stop over to ask what I am cooking. I keep one open bag and at-least one for back up!
The attached pic was thick cut bacon jalapeño and blue cheese burgers! Sweet and spicy

These are pretty good for what they are, not many complaints. I like it with the applewood because it gives it less of a fake taste. I like smokers better but this is far better then using gas. The price is good so no complaints there. They light well. Would for sure buy again

We bought these over Memorial Day weekend because they were on sale and they didn’t really give the grilled food much of a different taste and they didn’t want to light up, they kept going out. We’ve used them twice and we’ve experience the same issue both time. So I won’t be repurchasing these.

This is another go to flavor for my grill. This leaves such a good taste on my burgers and steaks. I am on a diet and there are certain seasonings I cannot use so this is a great way to cheat without the calories.

Love the applewood flavor of this charcoal. I love to grill, but am notoriously incapable of getting the charcoal lit. I have a pretty easy time with these, which must mean for everyone else, it’s super easy. I recommend these!

These charcoals are so, so, so good! We love to use these when we BBQ Pork as it brings out a great smokey, but sweet flavor! Just like Applewood Bacon! We don't use a ton of these either and once they are lit, they stay warm for a good, long time too!

Took forever to stay lit
This took forever and a ton of fluid to light. Once it got going the smoke flavor was great but prefer the hardwood charcoal style over this

We cook out almost every day in the warm months. This charcoal seals in the flavors of everything we throw on the grill.

Another great addition to the family of Kingsford charcoal!!! I love Applewood, I'm not sure if it's just the name, but the flavor of it always makes everything taste better!!! I would definitely recommend these for a nice little addition to your charcoal collections :)

While we have a Traeger smoker now, everytime I have used a charcoal trill Kingsford is the way to go. Applewood was my ultimate favorite. If we ever go back to charcoal then I will buy this!
