Thread: For all the "Pro" charcoal grillers

I get whatever Kroger or Sams has.

What Windstone said....I made one like that only bigger....it holds 10 lbs. of charcoal.....three sheets of newspaper is all it takes.

I don't need a starter. It is gas ignition so I can crank it up

Natural lump, I haven't found any difference between name brands and cheaper store brands. It doesn't take as much as the briquets to generate a lot of heat and it has no chemicals. Ive often wondered what all kind of chemicals may be in the briquets. Just make sure it is hardwood and not anything else. One trick since you are wanting to be frugal. GDG taught me this.. When you are through cooking pour a gallon or so of water on the coals and put them out. They will quickly dry and you can use what is left next time, this makes a bag go a lot further.

Thanks Feesh for the most intelligent and helpful comment this evening. Fixing to go out and pick up cans and dumpster dive for a while.....
