For Stubbs charcoal users...

[Jason]

Just a heads up for those that might not know. Stubbs has repackaged their charcoal into 14lb bags and has raised the price to $9.99 a bag. The old 15lb bags are still priced at $8.99, if your local Lowes still has any. I know it's not much, but I plan to go get several of the 15lb bags for $8.99 before they sell out.

i need to go to lowes, my local wallyworld has run out of stubbs and seems to have restocked the shelves with other brands.

which i did not approve of.  :mad:

My area Walmarts quit carrying Stubb's last year. Lowe's has been my only source since.

@jcnaz I just bought a bag of Stubbs at the San Tan Valley Walmart.

I will check mine again! I hope that it has returned.

Figured I'd try some cheaper charcoal, not impressed. I will be going back to Stubbs as soon as this crap is gone

If you have a grocery store nearby that has "Best Choice' as a store brand, all the "Best Choice" charcoal is made by Royal Oak, and the briquettes rock!  I like them as much as Stubbs. Or if you can find Royal Oak "Ridge" briquettes, they are awesome IMO

Less for more $, great.

Has anyone tried Embers charcoal from Home Depot 5.99 a bag? Royal Oak makes it also. I have never tried it

That's basically the same thing as the Best Choice brand..Royal Oak Ridge briquettes in a different  bag. Should be great!..all natural, not as much ash as other briquettes, and reasonably priced.

I really like the Royal Oak Ridge briquettes.  Are local Kmart had them on sale one day for $5.99 a bag so I bought all they had.  Only have two bags left so soon will be looking for more.

Thanks for the heads-up, @Jason. I wonder if this is like with the new Kingsford blue. Didn't they claim to now have lighter bags but the charcoal is "more dense" or something? Mentioned on this site somewhere. The new math hurts my brain.

At my Lowe's, all they have are the 15lb bags. But they're ready for the new ones ...

I've been getting Stubbs a Walmart for a while now, @ $7.87 for the 15 pound bags.
I hope they don't change too, just picked up a bag yesterday, they had a few left. Maybe I should go grab the rest...

By the time this thread started my lowes was out.
There was another a few towns away but I haven't had time to go, but since local schools are on break this week traffic is light in the morning so I hit lowes today at 6 am to stock up.
6 bags @ $9 back - $10 off 50 coupon I found here =

90 lbs of Stubbs $44.

You know you have a weber addiction when your buying charcoal in bulk...at 6 am...on a weekday...in February (24 degrees today).

This should last a while, if no new Stubbs supply becomes available I might try embers from royal oak. I just can't do KBB. The ash is ridiculous.
