Anyone got experience with this brand? I never liked their lump, too much random crap in it. But am willing to try anything once.

I have the lump... I have found screws, rocks, and nails. I WILL not buy Cowboy charcoal again, but that's me. I know people that have found objects in the bag and still use it, I just won't use it again.

Same company that makes Stubbs so probably the same as Stubbs. I haven't used either and probably never will as long as I can get weber at a good price or ro briqs. I was always a diehard kbb fan but I probably won't buy anymore. It's just too much ash on a long cook.

Them modern day cowboys are tough! It's gonna take a lot more than screws, rocks, and nails to stop them from firin' up the grill for a good 'ole fashion country western bbq!

Let alone the lack of quality of the lump, you're PAYING for that debris they are using for weight! I would not trust the briqs...

I used to always find about 3 small stones in the bottom of the grill. I was nearly convinced my next door neighbor was doing that as a prank. He was not above tossing weird random shit at me when I was outside doing something.
When I realized I was paying for them, and that I was being pranked by the company, I stopped buying. Oh, and I also moved to another state.

Took me 5 states to settle in... Ohio, Indiana, Virginia, New Jersey, and finally DelaWhere. Now I just have to figure out my state of mind... :)

It looks like Stubb's charcoal has just been rebranded.
Read this from cowboycharcoal.com --> Cowboy Fact Sheet (http://www.cowboycharcoal.com/cowboy-fact-sheet/)
Stubb's briquettes were my go-to, until I secured a large amount of Weber briquettes at last years Target clearance sale.
