Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product I got the Kingsford Signature Flavors Booster Garlic Onion Paprika and it is good, it helps flavor the food and isn't an overwhelming flavor. It works work's well for meat and vegetables on the grill also leaves just the right amount of flavor to the food!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Yummm!! We've used this when grilling everything. We love it! Ended up using a bit more than recommended and it really intensified the flavor. I Iiked it best when grilling chicken, shrimp, peppers and onions. Looking forward to trying the other flavors as well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Added that extra flavor These help make grilled pork chops even better. I always make my chops the same way, so I could definitely tell that they were more flavorful using this. They did catch quite easily and was ready to go in right around 15 minutes

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Impressed! This was a game changer, that I'm glad we tried! Used this for different meat on the grill, but my favorite was using chicken. You get the many notes of flavors. Garlic, onion.... And the smell is amazing! Was easy to use. Just add it to your already going charcoal. I will definitely add this to our routine of cooking on the grill for sure!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The Flavor is Amazing So I got this Kingford Signature Flavors a month ago and I just put it to use the last couples of weeks for the really good grilling weather. First let me say it was packaged well and when you put it on the charcoals and grill your meat it has a smoked garlic taste and it gives the meat more flavor and juices.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Smells great I’m always looking for ways to spice up my barbecue. These coals are super fragrant. I cooked chicken breast on the grill and it totally helping the chicken. You need to season your chicken but the smoke coming off of these adds a nice flare. I’ll definitely try other flavors.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product will buy again The first time I opted to try these, I just did simple burgers and hot dogs. When I first opened the bag, you could instantly smell the hickory and herbs. They smell great! I was also pleased that these were more of a wood chip than a charcoal, as I originally thought. Immediately upon lighting, I noticed the nice, rich smelling smoke coming from the grill. The yard smelled soooo good. Everything cooked very well and had the nice wood smoked taste I love!  I really couldn't taste the herbs as much as I liked. The second go with these, I used them on chicken breast, and I added more flavor boosters and less charcoal. Again, great smell, great smoke. The taste of the chicken was super! The smokey rich flavor packed with the herbs from the boosters was amazing, and my mouth waters just thinking about it! My advice is that if you are not getting the flavor you want, add a few more! I noticed they have another flavor in the store I'm excited to try.
