Lump for everything.
Anybody have any similar experience and does anyone know of a local place in the SE Phoenix area to pick up some quality lump charcoal?
Thanks,
Troy

ok, so my question would be what lump should i try? since i thought i that was what i was getting. i saw kingsford lump at target, but at 6 bucks a bag kinda expensive. i do have 2 1/2 bags of this charwood coal to go through, but what do you all think?

Not sure I would. I bought three bags thinking I got a good deal. Man I have a lot to learn. Trial and error. What brand of lump should i look at using and where can I find them?

Does lump coal produce more ash than regular charcoal? There seemed to be ashes flying everywhere. It think I did a good job keeping it off the food, but is this normal or did I buy cheap lump?

the problem i have with using my kettle and lump is the uneven heat when grilling directly over a bed of lump.QUOTE]
Try this, works for me and I only use lump because I like the cleaner smell.
After you dump the lit lump, let it burn a while with the lid off until it shows red throught the bed. It doesn't take long with all that oxygen and the heat will be more even, and there will be plenty of it. Then start grilling.
