Most awesome CL score!

Scored 30 boxes (450+pounds) of this Phillipine-made coconut lump for $90 bucks tonight. Put half of it in my son's woodshed, and half in mine. Thats less than .20/pound. 

Hope I like it...should work well on pork and fish.

@Gogogordy‌ I've never tried it. Can't be any worse than RO >:)

I got a small load a few years back from a close out in Atlanta.   I found that it was hard to lit and burned hot, SO Used it for longer cooks not hot steaks etc.  Left some white residue on the inside of the dome if used by itself so ended up mixing with regular charcoal and worked fine.  Wish I had found it. Enjoy!

Sweet! I'm not sure, but I may have seen that brand on TNW. That's a great deal.

Yeah, everyone has and is entitled to their opinion. TNW isn't the definitive, just another one. For $90 bucks I'll form my own. Worse comes to worse I can mix it with wood based lump and also use it for Dutch-Oven cooking.

For .20/lb, that sir is WINNING.....even if it does burn funky....I'd deal with it and enjoy!

Not definitive? I've never seen another charcoal rating site let alone something as thorough as his.

I like the scooter site, BTW. I REALLY want a ruckus.

Whoa partner. You missed the point of my post by a long shot.

Most folks would like to have some idea of what they were buying before stocking up on 450lbs of it, but you're obviously not one of them

Oh and BTW, those things are great for Weber go anywhere charcoal grills since the shape allows you to pack a lot of fuel in to the grill.

I thought I had a score on cowboy lump from home depot for $1 per bag, how bad could it be right.

Its bad....I'm giving away my last 8 bags on cl this week. Stuff took 45 min+ to burn clean. Point is a deals not always a deal but I'm sure you will be OK.

Seeing the pic of the van nearly full of charcoal, all I could think of is "We're gonna need a bigger boat..."

Actually I am. To a point. I did research here, there and everywhere. In fact I posted up about right on this forum, and as per usual got a variety of...opinions. And opinions on the matter are jus' like sphincters....everybody has one. Some like it, some dont....(just like EVERYTHING else ) but TNW isn't what I consider gospel on the subject. So, I decided to try it for myself. $90 isnt such a big buy-in especially given the amount.

Would that be a Ruckus, or a Big Ruckus? (Both awesome scooters albeit different. Like lump!)

Damn buddy, looks like you got singled out and sucker punched for no good reason.

I can't find a big ruckus anywhere, but I'd prefer it. I might just get a regular one and mod it.

Good score on the lump.
