Saving Unburned Lump?

Jim,
I have been doing exactly that for several years and havn't had a problem. I do dump the lump if there is any chance that rainwater has made its way down. I do try to always put a heavy duty trash bag and the Weber cover on as soon as its cool enough. But there are the times when the vodka wins and that's always when it rains.

Unused lump works fine when reused if lit with the MM. If the pieces are partially burned and rather small, and if you put it in the chimney to light it, it will take forever to get going.

I to just leave it in the bowl, just knock off the ashes, light new and pour it on top.

I've been doin' it that way all along. When I go to fill up the tank in my car, I don't throw away the old gas either.

I do the same with gas and lump too. I use both until they are completely gone.

Craig, I try not to run out the gas grill. Seems like if I don't I will be grilling and run out and have to finish in the oven or stove. That really gets me going.
You might as well run it out, if you have pay a set fee for filling. I go to our local rental place and fill it by the pound. It is usually about $9 for me. It will probobly be more this time. I ran it out for the first time in a long time.
