Weber Fuel Recommendation?

I did a few times when on sale and liked it. The one thing I noticed is that it just keeps burning till complete ash. I can always save RO lump or briqs for the next cook by shutting down all the vents. The KComp doesn't work that way, at least on my WSM in the backyard.

Interesting-- I've been able to save/reuse KComp with my Performer. Haven't really checked with my WSM though, as my last couple of cooks have been 10+ hours-- just assumed nothing was worth keeping.
 
I'll use what ever is readily available and affordable. I mean I won't use any kind of match light type product or some really off the wall brand like you'll find in the dollar store but I will and do use Kingsford in the blue bag as well as their Comp brand, Stubbs, Sam's Choice which I can't find anymore. I've never tried lump but I am working up to it, I tried it for grilling and like it, heck I've been using Cowboy brand and just finely picked up a couple of bags of Royal Oak and even used some Natures Own or something like that I got at Harris Teeter. Charcoal brands are limited around where I live which is hard to believe considering where I live unless I want to drive further than I want to get a couple of bags because I really can't afford to buy it by the pallet the way some do. So my recommendation is, use what is available and affordable and what works best for you and don't pay attention to the folk who will criticize your cook because you don't use what they use. I've ran into so many like that in other forums lately
 
If you are in the chicago burbs as I am you can find 40# bags of hardwood lump coal at Country Firewood in Bridgeport. Theya re on Archer Ave. I buy my stuff from them.
 
Don is right !!!. Use whats available and affordable and still a good brand. Like Kingsford blue ( $0.25/lb). I used other stuff not so affordable
like Wicked Good and see NO difference at all....
Lets see $1.75/lb or $0.25/lb the choice is yours =)
