You're asking a bunch of nut cases obsessed with collecting colored porcelain? I think you should blow some money on a bag of those new briquettes and let us know what you think. After all that's what we do (blow money on stuff for cooking with kettles and pop off about it in this forum). Send a picture of what the stuff looks like on your kettle. I haven't tried it yet. I might need some.

It's probably just another Royal Oak briquette by another name that's on par with Kingsford. But like TD said, you'll never know until you try it.

Why do you find you like the RO and Stubbs so much better?

I think RO and Stubbs are a much cleaner  burning charcoal, l I even tried kingsford competition briquettes but I think stubbs burns more consistent and gives a better flavor profile.

I just finished a smoked chuck roast cook using Stubbs.  I honestly couldn't tell the difference between it and Kingsford.  Maybe side by side I could, but today the food just had the regular smoked flavor I've gotten used to when cooking with charcoal and wood.

Just got a bag to try. $24.99 CDN.  I don't think I'll be buying anymore, not at that price.

I have tried 4 fuels and I like them in this order. Kbb. Ro lump. Ro briquette.  The very distant last place is master select lump from sams. Terrible.

Oh my goodness. I found it for 22.99 and had to stifle the laugh. Thing is part of me still wanted to buy it to see how it performed. Shit man I have a wall of charcoal in the basement. Thanks for being the Canadian to get it Darko...one of us had to do it. Report back after a few cooks. Did you get some Stubbs from the States to compare?

No stubbs unfortunately.  I just bought 1 bag of Weber briq's to try it.  At that price there is no hope in hell that I will be buying more. I can get Royal Oak briquettes for 10.99 a bag now at Crappy Tire. I bought a shitload in November for $8.99 a bag. Plus I still have 6 bags of Maple Leaf briq's left that I bought for $9.99 a bag when Rona had it on sale

Stubbs burns longer, hotter, and gives off a better aroma. i was able to cook a rack of ribs followed by some chicken. no fuel added. if it was royal oak, i would have had to add fuel.
