I'll check out my local Lowes. I don't need more charcoal, but I might pick up a few.
Looks like Stubbs went down to 14lb bags from 15lb.
Stubbs is higher quality than KBB.Hi All How does Stubbs compares to Kingsford Blue? Like to know before going out and buying Stubbs..I have 8 bags of KB and 4 bags RO Lump .
Don't really need more, BUT if Stubbs is better and why not!
THanks Dan
Stubbs is higher quality than KBB.
Less ash, cleaner burning, nice aroma.
I use both, but Stubbs is clearly the higher quality of the two.
I always grab Stubbs on sale, but probably burn more KBB because it's cheaper.
When I said I was going to pick up some charcoal, SWMBO just gave me that "you're kidding, right?" look. Truthfully, I'm down to just 6 bags of KBB, so I think the purchase is warranted. I try to keep at least a 6 to 8 month supply on hand, just to see me through until the next good sale. Typically I go through about 1-2 bags a month.
Back to the point, I grabbed 4 bags and will pick up a couple KBB twin-packs when they go on sale. I rotisseried a couple chickens with it yesterday; it lit quickly and burned cleanly.
I picked up 4 bags of Stubbs. Hard to hide them since they don't blend in with the 216lbs of Kcomp. It will be interesting to see if SWMBO notices...
