I don't like to call it hoarding..

[Jeff J]

I think of it more as "Value Based Consumerism". Cleaned up the garage before it get's cold here in Ohio, and got all my charcoal organized and accessible. 26 bags of Kingsford and 34 bags of Cowboy. All were purchased at deep discounts, and I should be all set until next summer.

 

[Dwain Pannell]

That oughta do it.

 

[Troy D]

That's a good start!

 

[Bill]

that's not hoarding, that's being prepared

 

[Bill W San Diego]

Now that's just smart shopping. With the money you saved on the coal you can buy a new???????????

 

[Hamilton Barnes]

now I know where to go when I run out of charcoal this winter. Wish I had a space where I could store charcoal like that! Always think I am not buying enough when I do get it on sale!

 

[MattP]

And I thought I was a little excessive with six bags of K-Comp sitting in my garage...

I'm really curious to see how it goes this winter when it comes to finding charcoal at stores. I just picked up charcoal grilling/smoking in the spring, so I've never paid attention in the past.

 

[russ olin]

more more and more

 

[Mike Holt]

I think I am headed down the road with you whenever I see charcoal on sale i pick up a few bags

 

[Tony R]

that's not hoarding, that's being prepared

Ditto what Bill said...

 

[Mike Cosgrove]

That's a beautiful thing.

 

[James Lake]

Love the supply...nice job Jeff!

 

[George Curtis]

I'm with you Matt! I've always stocked up when the twin packs go on sale around Memorial Day, and this year I thought I was over doing it when I bought 4 packs (total of 160 lbs) especially considering I already had 30 lbs at the house! But here it is just under 4 months later and I'm wishing I had bought 3 times as much!

Oh well, you better believe I'll be keeping an eye out and monitoring the availability of charcoal all fall/winter/spring. With any luck there will be enough supply to satisfy our addiction.

 

[Miguel M]

I think you're set for a couple of cooks.

 

[Greg Powers]

I see an open bag of KBB, need to get that used before it draws moisture

My hope would be that one of the big box stores would at least have some sort of supply of KBB in stock throughout the winter.

I have always been able to find it in limited quantities in the winter months at Walmart and Lowes. Havn't checked Home Depot. Usually its stuffed back in the garden center behind the christmas decorations.

 

[Dex from NJ]

Some lowes managers in NJ told me they will stock Stubbs. I didnt ask about anything else.

You make me want to go buy more Cowboy, which is on clearance at depot...
