I've still got a bag and a half of orange bag B&B left and am holding on to it for my beach trip next month.  Been using Kingsford on the last few cooks and it's actually working pretty good for me.

Kingsford will light fast...real fast. But burns out fast also, and is not as clean burning.

I just did the Imperial Wagyu brisket on the B&B snake. Over 8 1/2 hours cook time. Only about 50% of the snake was burned. So I'm thinking you could easily get a full 16 hour smoke with B&B in your kettle, with proper temp management...I was at 255 the whole time.

was the Wagyu worth the extra cost of a good looking prime brisket?

The cost difference was $58 versus $70, for a 12.7 lb brisket.
We did a side-by-side taste test. They were both very good, better than most BBQ restaurants.

After doing the side-by-side taste test with friends, the Wagyu wins hands down.
Smoother texture, more even grain of the meat, more tender. No "stringiness" at all. Silky smooth.

Was it worth $12? My friends say yes!
