Did I Miss it? Anyone tried the new Weber branded charcoal?

[WEBERNV]

I would say it is comparable to Stubbs in almost every way. If I remember, I will try and get a pic of the bottom of my kettle after my cook yesterday to show the ash production.

I just bought a bag and was impressed. It performed very well. You can read about it and see some pictures on Mad Meat Genius .com  http://www.madmeatgenius.com/2017/02/weber-briquettes.html

Weber Euro-Briqs are grooved.

So.......what if it IS Stubbs?  For those that have tried Stubbs, do they perform the same?  If so which is cheaper?

If ash production is that low. It could be a game changer to me.

Hells bells. At $1/# there better be almost no ash, and it better empty itself.

Stubb's is 9.99 for 15lbs at Lowe's doesn't make me want to spend another ten dollars for five more pounds!

most places around me sell the 2 pack of kingsford for 20, ranging from 2 16,18 or 20 pound bags depending where you go. i tried lump once and it was like i was cooking fireworks, havnt messed with it since

My issue with lump is how much falls through the charcoal grate.....lots of small pieces.  I would use it otherwise.

Use a second charcoal grate on top of the first with the rods running perpendicular. Helps a lot to prevent fall-through.

I don't like the inconsistent sizes of the lump pieces, the fireworks when lighting the chimney, and having to use 2 charcoal grates. Switched to briquettes.

I'll put up with sparks and odd sizes once in a while to do this.  Don't try this with briquettes!

You're right. That is pretty cool. Saw Alton Brown do that.  Never tried it myself. How different is the flavor and texture?
