ok i finally found some lump down here. dont know why it is so scarce?? anyhoo do i use it any different than regular briquetts?? i have never even ever seen any untill i bought it yesterday. thanks in advance.
lump makes sparks; watch the flip flop mod. hotter and quicker & less ash than kingsford also.
the lump i got actually has no brand name on it. it just says "the original lump" it is in spanish on one side and english on the other. i think it is made in nc.
As of late I gave been mixing them with great results. I was having a bit of trouble with temps in one of the cookers so I figured with lump burning a bit hotter and easier to start it would keep the coals in order on long cooks, so far it's worked very well.anyone ever mix them??
bob,i got it at an engles in griffin ga. how would it work in my uds?? would i use about 1/2 as much as briquettes?? if i used the same amount, would it get a lot hotter? sorry for all the rookie questions but maybe i can learn from yalls mistakes and not burn up some good meat!!:-D
I used lump for the first time yesterday...the smell was very pleasant, it light up easily and had my temps holding around 250 all day, the only issue that arose was when I had a temp spike (lid off mod) and I left the vents closed for too long and the fire went out, the butt was at 180 so I just tossed in on the oven to finish it off. Oh and after 8 hours or so it did not even look like I had use up any of the lump! I was very impressed. Its like anything else, I now need to practice using lump and I have a feeling it will be my fuel of choice. The was in a UDS and using Kroger Brand Lump.
