What's the biggest difference between kbb and Stubbs. I christened my new and first performer on Easter with some ribs, with the slow-n-sear , since then have used it about every other day. Love it. Have only used kbb, some apple and cherry wood, what am I missing out on??

The difference is obvious when you smell them burn. The binders in KBB put off a distinctive chemical aroma while burning that is absent from most other briquettes, including KComp & Stubbs. Stubbs produces a more pleasing, woody aroma that is imparted into the food, to some degree. IMO, Stubbs briquettes are an excellent choice when you want a smokey flavor and the more even heat production that briquettes provide over lump. I also really like KComp, but for a somewhat different reason. KComp generates good, even heat with little ash while imparting almost no smoke flavor itself. This allows the user to create the smoke profile they want with wood chunks, rather than augmenting the charcoal's profile with wood. Just my two cents. Others may be able to provide a better answer.

I just picked up 8 bags of the new Basques briquettes,  this is definitely my new favourite briquette.

IMO, those are good prices for quality charcoal briquets.

Is anyone else changing up their buying habits this year?
I have found that I go through the Stubb's more because I do a lot of low and slow cooks. I'll be stocking up more on that this year.

Don't forget these prices are Canadian dollars.
