Incredible flavor!
I have never grilled with flavored charcoal before, I was hesitant, but once I received these I couldn’t wait to try it. Boy what a pleasant surprise. I grilled 3 New York steaks with the Cumin Chili flavor, along with 3 baked potatoes on the grill. The flavor was so incredible that I’ll never use plain charcoal again! This is a must buy for all the folks who grill year round. I like it so much that I’m cooking burgers over it tonight!

It’s great!
It’s a joke in my house that I’m not the best griller or cook actually. My husband says my food often lacks flavor. Well not anymore! These briquets not only made my food smell good, they made my whole neighborhood smell good! Like my neighbor actually asked what I was grilling! I will use these forever!

Great for smoking
I used the Chilli and cumin briquettes to smoke a brisket and I don't know if I'll ever go back to normal. It infused the meat with such wonderful flavor. It cuts down some of the work you would do prepping the brine beforehand. I have to try the other flavors!!!

surprisingly tasty
I would have never thought of flavored grilling briquets as a thing I would be interested in, but now that I've tried these, I'm intrigued! I grilled chicken using the cumin chili flavor, and it actually added some of the seasoning flavor to the meat! It's a subtle hint of flavor, so I would still recommend doing at least a basic salt & pepper on your food, but this adds a nice extra twist that you wouldn't normally have. I would use these again.

Yum!
This is such a cool concept! As soon as I saw these Kingsford flavored briquettes, I was so excited to try them. We are the family that grills all year round, and we love trying out new recipes. We’ve used smokers, wood planks, salt blocks- this is such an easy way to add flavor. The cumin chili gives a perfect hint of smokiness and is so flavorful. I can’t wait to try other flavors, and I’m so surprised this hasn’t been thought of sooner!

These briquets made the food taste so good. I made simple hamburgers with the patties not well seasoned. The flavors really came through and we enjoyed them thoroughly. I would purchase again and again.

Great taste!
Fast shipping! Arrived in perfect shape! I'm a BBQ lover, and although I have both a gas grill and a charcoal grill, I'm always on the lookout for a new flavor for grill day. I love these, they have a great flavor and light easily. I have never had this flavor combo before, but I'm sure glad I have now! Great for bringing boring burgers and chicken too life!

Great Flavor
I was excited to try these but very skeptical. To my surprise, we were pleasantly pleased with the flavor it added to our meat! I grilled a marinated fajita and that was 1st on the grill. I did have the lid closed most of the time. The 1st batch of fajita definitely had the added chili and cumin flavor. Not spicy, just warm and elevated. I think the second batch of fajita had very little added flavor and by the time we put the chicken on, the flavor was gone. I would buy another bag to play around with. I think it has a lot of potential but the results will vary depending on what your cooking, how long your cooking, and if you do lid open or closed.

Step up your Grilling!
Wow, these cumin chili charcoal briquets are a real game changer for extra flavor to your grilled foods. I've used these twice now and need to go purchase more. I really like that the flavors are all natural and give a nice extra flavor to whatever you cook with them. I used this in my grill and made steak tacos and chicken tacos and the flavor was fantastic. I was asked for my secret since the taste was so awesome and I'm sure my guests will be purchasing this charcoal too. I can't wait to try the other flavors.

Awesome product
So I was a little unsure when I saw this flavored charcoal but thought it would be different. We recently had some nice weather and were able to grill out and boy was I surprised. This gave our burgers and chicken just a hint of flavor without overpowering it. We were very happy with the outcome and will be buying more. Awesome product!!

Fun to try something new!
This seemed like a random out of left field purchase but I was feeling wild on a Saturday and am glad I did. These cumin chili briquettes really did add a layer of spice and depth to the chicken I was cooking. In fact I was wishing I had more stuff to pop on the grill after taking a few bites. Chicken was super tasty and juicy, again with the added bonus of cumin scent and flavor. I’d definitely use these again.

Adds good flavor
I used these Cumin and Chili briquettes to grill up some chicken and steak this past weekend, the flavor was amazing, and would add flavor to anything you can grill. I will be trying the others in the near future.

Great taste
So we were really excited to try this charcoal. We love grilling with charcoal because of all the flavor. We just did some simple burgers with this and it was so good! You could taste the chili and cumin spices for sure. It wasn’t over powering at all! Will definitely be trying the other flavors as well!

Great smoky flavor
I never knew they sold charcoal that is smoked with flavor. What an interesting concept and was excited to try it out. It gives off a mild smoky flavor but is not over powering. I would recommend this to anyone. I marinate whatever I'm cooking still but this just adds to the over all cooking experience.

These are so cool!!
I couldn’t wait to get home to try these cumin chili briquettes from Kingsford, this is so interesting to me and the flavor profile is so cool!! These are just like regular briquettes but they do impart some of that cumin chili flavors!! I made pork chops my first time using these and just couldn’t be happier with the flavors, the smoke and the moistness that was achieved in the meat was absolutely delicious!! I recommend trying these innovative briquette flavors, it’s awesome!!

spicy!
I wasn't expecting it to be spicy at all, so was extremely pleased with both the scent and subtle flavor. We followed the instructions to use more x it in and use with a charcoal grill and the chicken and burgers turned out fantastic. We even let it smoke for a bit to really infuse the meat. Spicy is definitely the way to go for this family!
