has there been new guidance when using the minion method to increase the number of briquets with the newer version of kingsford (post 2006)?
the reason I ask, i've tried twice with poor results when following the method for hot climates, filling the bowl and heating 20 briquets, dumping them on top, etc. I have found the 20 hot briquets very inqadequate. I realize next time i'll just incr the number to about 30 but wondered why this method has proven problematic to me. I wondered if the orig method was with the orig generation of kingsford and without the ask, lite the others faster. I could not get my temps up for almost 2 hrs, it finally settled in but with stoking from me.
