It is a really nice leather case. However mine came in with a split on the belt hole that keeps it wrapped together. It is a nice gift to give someone but I would buy one or use my fogo points on it again.
I only ordered it because I thought knives came with it but I didn’t read the full description first! Picture got me on this one.
Quite simply these are the best briquettes I’ve ever used. They burn clean, hot, and long. It is now frustrating to try to use any other brand.
The absolute best large lump charcoal I’ve ever used. I went ahead and bought the Medium lump ( Black Bag) while waiting.
Great product as well, just use twice as much be the premium.
I figure this bad boy cuts ~10 minutes off my lighting routine. Allows you to absolutely bury a lit starter without it going out. Tempted to buy a second one. Wish it was a teensy bit easier to open/close — e.g., on a hinge.
What I prefer for long cooks. Very low spark, huge chunks, great flavor. The best. When is it going to be back in stock!?
When will premium be available?
Thanks for having two bags of Lump charcoal to choose from. I have a White bag with larger pieces and the Black bag works perfect for smaller cooks.
Thanks FOGO for thinking of us the consumer.
We’ve been using FOGO lump coal for years, there’s no comparison to the taste that results. The ability to control the temperature is predictable and consistent. Wouldn’t use any other charcoal to grill.
Coal is good but I like the bigger chunks. Had to order these because they were sold out of the big bags.
I became aware of these starters several years ago when I started watching the weekly FOGO videos hosted by Capt. Ron. I ONLY use these starters now. They make it extremely easy to light my XL BGE.
Legend has it that Saint Nicholas puts this coal in your stocking when you misbehave.
Used Bourbon Barrel wood chunks on recent cook. The chunks performed so much better that the wood I had used a few weeks ago For BB ribs. This smoke was sweeter and lasted longer.
I usually buy 2 of these bags at a time. Best charcoal ever!
I regularly buy from Fogo online. Shipping is quick and the prices aren't inflated. I typically buy the large super premium gold bags for smoking. This time I bought the BBC bag which is perfect for my kettle. I always have fuel left over on my cooks and have experienced consistent quality with FOGO.
Good uniform size didn't have any broken ones doesn't smoke up my porch like some other brands once lit burns clean and hot but doesn't give food much flavor to my taste
Love ❤️ this flavor not to strong just right .
I have been using this rub on beef and pork and it is delicious when combined with FOGO Charcoal.
I've been using Fogo Charcoal for years and that's why I'm proud to fly the #TeamFogo flag in my backyard and on the competition trail. From Gateway Drums, Hasty Bake Grills and Jambo offsets, I can use one charcoal for all of them. Lights fast, burns great, easy to control.
I love your product. Burns great. I use black and gold in my large BGE and your Briquettes in my BGE Minimax.
I use both the gold (premium large chunk) and black bags of Fogo charcoal and I’m quite pleased with both. Typically I’ll use use black bag for everyday normal cooks, but the larger chunks ‘May’ last longer. When I shut down and smother the air, I’m able to salvage some coal and use it a second time. This stuff is worth the price.
