"Not the best lump charcoal on the market, but it's a very good product. Note, I have used lump that burns longer, lights quicker, and smells better - but they're premium priced and only available in a few markets in Canada. This is my go-to charcoal and I burn a lot of it in a year - at least 80 bags. Once in a while I come across a rock or other foreign object but that can happen with just about any other brand. Cdn Tire rocks for stocking this year round! (But hard to find end of season sales!)"
