How can you hate it when it has ALL of the buzzwords on the packaging: ultimate, professional, best, premium.
Clearly it was user error.

lol ok comparatively speaking it has twice as much smoke as regular kbb and 5 times the smoke as Coshell. I prefer low smoke unless I'm adding it. lights really fast but also burns out fast. I can get 2 full cooks out of Coshell and cook burgers with kingsford.

a review can have pros and cons. I HATE that it has so much smoke that it fills my back yard like my house is on fire. I like that it's quick to light. and it cooks like normal kbb IMO

Thanks for sharing. Amount of smoke when lighting matter a lot to me. I found the same problem with Weber charcoal. I stick to kbb and RO. The RO smokes the least for me.

I am a RO convert.  Love the stuff...tough to beat at regular price of less than 40 cents per pound.  BTW, RO is on sale right now at Lowes for $4.00 per bag....through July 5.

My lowes only has RO briquettes. I have only used their lump. Which do you use?

[LiquidOcelot]

side by side. Coshell on the left kingsford pro on the right both started at the same time look at the smoke difference

I have three large bags of RO lump on hand. I've used it before, and the stuff is very good. I've never tried the RO briquettes before, but I went to Lowes over the weekend and picked up a couple bags, along with a couple bags of Stubbs. The Stubbs stuff has always been great. If the RO briquettes are as good as you guys say I'll be kicking myself for not buying more. $4 per 15# bag is sooooo cheap.

So far I like
Stubbs
Royal Oak Chef's Select (ROCS)
Royal Oak Ridge (red bag)
RO lump

Still haven't tried my sample of the Weber charcoal but I bought a bag of it at Meijer for $12.99
