I've had my WSM for almost a year now and have had good experiences using Kingsford. However, my current batch appears to be lacking in the Kingsford tradition.
My first obversation was in loading the chimney. The coals seemed to be less dense and very rough. Not the compact smooth product I'm used to.
I lit the chimney using the same method I have always used. Took the 30 minutes as usual but the level in the chimney had dropped to an inch below the top.
Threw it on and filled with unlit. After only 3 hours the ring was down to half full and the temp only 200. I added more unlit to try and get it going. Up to 220 with 2 vents wide open.
I've read that Kingsford has moved its production offshore but it would'nt affect quality.
I'm not so sure /infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif
Anyone else experienced this recent occurance?
Did I just get a bad bag?
Curious.
