Stopped by at one of my favorite local establishments to pick-up some of their chicken-enchilade soup & a loaf of warm bread.
Anyway, they do rotiserie chicken over charcoal - and had bags of charcoal piled in their "lobby" area (to use as makeshift seating?)
The bags were nice big 20-lb bags of Royal Oak natural lump - and were apparently bagged for Sysco (a commercial food service distributor, in case you did not already know that). I could not see if it was the US-made, or some other variety of R.O. lump - but it peaked my curiosity....
This got me to thinking - anybody out there with a commercial connection using Sysco? If "yes", any chance of finding out a ballpark figure to get a few bags (do you need to buy by the pallet?)? My brother works in food service, and the place he works at does not mind if he tacks a few items on the order - as long as they are reimbursed at their cost.
Or, am I still better-off to stick with Wally World?
