Using this kind makes a whole lot of a difference in flavoring your meats that you’re grilling. Your seasoning plus this mesquite charcoal. (Chefs kisses). Usually affordable and easy to Stowe away. Def recommend.

Is there anything better than this smell when this starts to burn? Oh my goodness. I love the Kingsford brand of charcoal, but the mesquite is my favorite. The meat always taste perfect with the best smoke.

It's alright nothing magical. I expected more to be honest. More expensive to buy the wood and charcoal but tastes better that way. Tastes fine but not great. If you just want to add a little something sure go ahead but otherwise just use some liquid smoke all else fails on your meat and your better off.

I don’t really notice the mesquite taste but works well as a charcoal. Nothing extra special than their normal brand

The strength of the original with a extra spice. The flavor is not over powering, there is a slight different smell but not enough to make a major difference.

I didn’t really enjoy using this!! It was something quick and easy!! During the summertime I’m a heavy griller so this was a cheap and quick solution because my sis forgot to bring the one I usually use!!

There's nothing like the taste of charcoal.and mesquite when grilling beef. Burgers, steak, it doesn't matter. Just makes the meat taste rrally good and gives an extra smokiness. My favorite is actually the Applewood variety, but I haven't seen it in awhile.

Lights easily, glows well, stays lit for adequate amount of time. Taste of food when using this is wonderful! Food tastes smokey but never burnt! It is very affordable for the quality of coals you get!

Due to an unfortunate situation, our grill exploded so we are using an old-style camping grill for now. We use these charcoal briquettes now. These light fairly easy and burn slow and low with a subtle, yet definitely noticeable mesquite flavor. Definitely kicks up the taste of the meats we have been grilling!

These Kingsford briquettes are super reliable and they heat up quickly! You only need to add lighter fluid once and they leave food tasting great with the yummy smokey flavor! We love using these in our bbq!

I really like using the mesquite wood because it gives your food a different smoky taste..I like that the mesquite gives you a slow smoked house taste that let's your food cook at the perfect temperature in your smoker, on the grill and bbq pits.

Mesquite is great.
Always use this with beef with outstanding flavor. Use the Hickory for Pork. Bring back the Cherrywood. That stuff is great. Lots better than Applewood.

Can't Seem To Find It In Stores Anymore
I've used the mesquite and hickory for several years now and have always been very satisfied. However, I can no longer find it on the shelves of Wal-Mart, Lowe's or Home Depot in my area. What happened? Is it not being made or distributed anymore?

Why isnt it available in stores anymore?
This is the best charcoal ever. The last few months none of the stores in my store sell it. Why is that? Very disappointed. My grilling experience has suffered. Bring it back.

I have been using this in my Weber kettle with a chimney started for 3 years now. My wife also has been using it for 2 years as it so easy and the flavor of mesquite enhances most food we cook. The Kingsford charcoal burns more consistent than lump mesquite and the flavor is comparable. Probably use this 75 times a year, 20 minutes from lighting chimney to putting on the meat, poultry or veges

Best Charcoal There Is
On a whim, I bought a bag of the Mesquite from Home Depot. Cooked with it. Smoked a couple of chuck roasts and a bunch of salmon on my Weber 18" grill. Loved it so much, I went to get more, but Home Depot had stopped carrying it. Found it at Walmart, so I bought a bag each of Pecan, Applewood, Cherrywood, and Mesquite. And Walmart had the 14.6 lb bags for only $5 a bag!!! Great product. I light it with my Weber Chimney and lights and burns perfectly.

I have been using Kingsford charcoal for a long time always the original. it's my fuel choice for all of my weber Grills. I have no idea why it took me so long to use this product. the steaks, burgers that I grilled up were some of the best tasting I've ever done. I will be stocking up on more of this product, Awesome job Kingsford
