Our charcoal comes from the Namibian bush in Africa, one of the hottest places on earth. It’s made from acacia, a denser wood than oak and hickory; it burns hotter, cleaner, and more evenly. Therefore, you do not need to use as much charcoal for your BBQ. Available in bags of 27.5 lb (12.47 kg), 15.4 lb (7 kg), and 8 lb (3.63 kg) nationwide at select US retailers.
