Charcoal
The original charcoal...this charcoal is the only brand that I have ever used and will ever use unless forced to do so in a situation I'd be Dyer to., the output of the heat is remarkable in the growing performance of this charcoal is great.

Great!
A classic! The best charcoal out there. It heats up quickly and gives the food a nice flavor too. This one gets a bit ashy but that is to be expected with using charcoal.

The only one I use.
This is my favorite charcoal. I don't have any issues with it not lasting. The coals keep everything cooking even. They get nice and hot not cheap coals. All charcoal brands leave ash.

Hot coals
My husband absolutely swears by these coals! He grills at least 3 times a week year round snow and all. Truly burn longer, hotter, and more even. Doesn't like to use anything else.

Works great all the time
This works well all the time. Gives a great flavor to the food and the heat output is evenly which makes the food cooks better. There is not a lot of smoke production from this product.

Good
The Kingsford Original Charcoal 16lbs bag is my go-to for grilling. The charcoal lights up quickly and burns evenly, providing consistent heat for perfectly grilled food every time. It imparts a great smoky flavor that enhances the taste of everything I cook. The bag is durable and easy to store. Plus, the coals last a long time, making it economical. Whether I'm grilling burgers, steaks, or veggies, Kingsford always delivers reliable performance and great results.

Kingsford Charcoal
It’s summer and perfect for barbecue parties. And for that my choice is Kingsford Original Charcoal. Kingsford Charcoal is a staple for outdoor grilling enthusiasts, offering a reliable and consistent product that enhances the overall grilling experience. The packaging is just perfect.
You just can't beat Kingsford for dependability!! The flavor it creates is unbeatable. Burns evenly and distributes heat evenly. It stays lit and does not burn off like the cheap charcoal does.
One of the standout features of Kingsford Charcoal is its affordability and widespread availability. It’s easy to clean. Overall very very satisfied with the product.

This is really high quality charcoal. It leaves minimal mess compared to the competing brands. It keeps the temperature high and generates a lot of heat
