aFire 0105U 100-Percent Natural Coconut Charcoal Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What an interesting product. With the whole push in being green, here's another company trying to do their part. Who would have thought to recycle old coconut shells and turn them into charcoal? Now there are some differences between this tuff and the traditional stuff you get at the home depot. Here are some of the differences I've noticed. First thing, PRICE. Though you generally pay a little more for green products anyway. Second thing, burning and temperature. Starts easily, burns evenly. The box claims it burns hotter than lump charcoal. I disagree, it burns hotter than traditional charcoal, but not hotter than lump. There are small wholes in the center of each briquette so more air=more heat, which also equals a faster burn time. Third thing, taste. These briquettes will give your food a slightly exotic taste, especially if you're cooking low and slow. Don't worry your food won't change flavor. Your brisket will still taste like beef! I love to bbq in any season. I love enhancing the flavor of food with smoke. So I'll buy this product again and use it when I'm looking to jazz up some ribs or a beer can chicken.

Made from 100-percent coconut shells and copra (dried coconut meat), this 7-pound box of gourmet charcoal provides a unique yet superior alternative to traditional charcoal and other cooking fuels. In addition to being sustainable and environmentally friendly, the safe easy-to-use product also burns hotter, longer, and with less ash than any other charcoal. Its consistent high heat cooks evenly, sears meat, and locks in flavor and juices--without any coconut or petroleum flavoring. Because it's free from petroleum, sawdust, nitrates, and all other chemical additives, gourmet chefs and grilling enthusiasts can focus on the true flavor of meats, spices, and rubs. Even more, the coconut charcoal infuses meat with a light charcoal flavor and can be used with any type of wood charcoal for extended cooking time. The 7-pound box of premium coconut charcoal compares to a 14-pound bag of lumpwood charcoal and measures approximately 10 by 10 by 5 inches.
