Hi Everybody. Have you tried Kingsford Hickory charcoal? I saw a small bag at Lowes, I bought it, and decided to give it a shot. It says throw 6-7 of these on top of lit briquettes, and that is what I did. I also bought a pork lion from Food 4 less, never tried this marinated pork meat either. Since this was an experiment, what the heck! I grilled the pork loin direct, turning it every 5 minutes, for about 30 minutes or so. I rested the meat under foil for about another 10 minutes. The hickory charcoal sure smelled good there for awhile. It lasted about 15-20 minutes of that good ol smoke smell. I sliced the meat, it had a faint smoke smell, but I could taste it. The meat was tender and juicy, not much of a smoke ring, but I could taste a little bit of the hickory smoke in the meat. Overall, I was pleased how the meat turn out. I still prefer using wood chips or chunks for smoke. But this was fun trying this out. What are your thoughts?
