Brethren,
I recently went through my entire horde of Rockwood lump charcoal the other day. I bought a few hundred dollars worth of their excellent 20 lb bags many many years ago and stored them in shelving in the shed and am now out. Back then, they were $20/bag and shipping was free for over $100 orders.
In order to prepare for a baseball party, I went over to our excellent local Ace hardware store, and they had a really stellar selection of lump (Fogo, Rockwood, Kamado Joe, etc) and briquettes (B&B), but my bill was over $100 for one bag of Rockwood and two small bags of oak B&B.
I know inflation is raging and has doubled the cost of most products over the past few years, so I am probably extremely late to the New Normal, but I was wondering where you get the best lump or briquette deals online or in person? Is $35/bag of 20lbs the new normal for quality lump? $20/bag for 10lb bags of B&B?
Many thanks all, I need to update my current understanding of the world...
