    Am down to 9 bags of BGE left over from a 14 bag two for one sale.  3/4's bag of Nature's Own and one bag of Royal Oak Stargrill.  Just a mere rookie I suppose.

    I'm still in the process of determining which lump is my favorite, but I expect I'll start hoarding once I figure that out, and especially laying in a stash for winter.

    I would think it isn't a problem until you start having multiple stashes (10 bags in the garage, 6 in the shed, 5 on the covered porch, 8 in the attic, 3 in your trunk, 7 in the basement, etc). Or until your wife finds all the sheets and towels in a laundry basket because you wanted to stash more in the linen closet.

    No... She finds the towels in my ftc cooler. I personally like to dry off with one after it has been in the cooler a few hours.

    I thought my dealer was gonna start carrying Ozark Oak. Well I was wrong. Damn it! Henapple, when you gonna be close? Am I gonna have to wait till we get an unofficial fest together? I guess it's Royal Oak for now.

    I' be curious about getting some shipped to zip 98072. :)


    Unfortunately, at 1-2 bags at a time out to the coast lines, it usually ends up around $35/bag via FedEx Ground.  In the Central US, it's about $25/bag after shipping.

    Once you go to a pallet or multiple pallets, that can drop the per bag price considerably depending on the routes, delivery location, etc.  Dock or depot delivery is easy if you have the access, because curbside/liftgate service adds money.

    Send me an email if you want to talk more about it.

    So just when I figure out I like WG, they quit selling through Ace. AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!!!! Wrote to WG and they basically said I could drive an hour to Conroe, 3 hrs to San Antonio or 4 hrs to Austin to get some. WTF?? Does WG not like selling charcoal anymore?? Puts a serious damper in my hoarding plans. End rant.

    Finding WGWW-check the WG web site.  They list distributors in various locations.  There may be one that is close enough if you make a large buy.  Found one near me that also handles Ozark Oak-double bonus.  FWIW-

    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Just made my first restocking trip to Wally-world of the spring - where I purchased 8 additional bags of RO. Not all stores carry it, so it took me a while to find which stores do carry it.
