Can you not find Royal Oak at wal-mart in your area? What about Kroger brand?Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

Ace has their own brand grill mates or something and i believe someone said thats made by RO . i could be wrongLarge Big Green Egg , XL Big Green Egg . BBQ Guru, Weber Kettle, Weber Q grill for road trips.

I posted earlier asking about a couple on amazon. They qualify for prime free shipping and have good reviews.

I agree with @SmokeyPitt ! I would try Kroger brand lump. I have always been satisfied With there lump, don't waste your time on publix lump!Peachtree City, Ga Large BGE

WG's customer service is excellent. Always has been for me. Lee is a very pleasant person to deal with. I know because I have done so a number of times. One guy on here tells you he had an unfortunate experience and all of a sudden "their customer service stinks"? Nonsense.Buy a bag or two of RO from Walmart. Surely that will last you until WG is back.No longer available? More nonsense. They are temporarily out of stock, not "no longer available". Their website says...Our WGC is temporarily sold out and will be receiving new shipments beginning around mid-June. We certainly understand that this is an inconvenience for you ... however, we thank you for your patience and for your support! The Store will re-open as soon as our WGC is available.Thank you! ...

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I'm really not in the business of consumer sale, nor selling individual bags......but if you out-of-staters want to put together group buys, I will ship pallets. It's how I got started--trust me you'll have plenty of takers. Put an ad on Craigslist, on the bulletin board at work, and talk with your local BBQ store, butcher shop, fruit stand, etc. They'll go quick. I went from a single pallet to a semi truck full in just a few years.
I can buy a truckload of any charcoal you want and distribute it, but our brand will be the most economical since there's no middle man.
There's 30 bags on a pallet, 20 lbs each. Shipping goes up quite a bit if you need residential delivery or liftgate service, so try to find someone with a business address. If you're only getting 1 or 2 pallets, two people can hand unload the bags in under 5 minutes. Anything over that, you're going to need a dock or forklift.
Send me an email through my website if you want a quote. Just give me your ZIP, # of pallets, and if it's a business or residential delivery.

I asked the same questions a few days ago.. here is the link
http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1152001/free-shipping-on-lump#latest
bottom line: Firecraft.com, Grillstuff.com and amazon.com are the big three discussed that offer free shipping with special memberships or min orders......
I am interested in the KJ lump from Ace -- Ace usually has a $15 off $100 coupon and you can order lump online and have it shipped to the store for free. Other than that - I am looking to making my own lump (I am interested in Bamboo...)
-
I thought I saw somewhere that bbqguys.com sells charcoal and the shipping is reasonable. I hope Amazon has decent charcoal since I have Prime - free shipping.
But I'm wary about having charcoal shipped. Easy for the shipper to toss it around and break the large pieces up. Any folks here who had a good experience having charcoal shipped?

I use Humphrey and have it shipped to a trucking depot where I pick it up. The depot loads it right on to my truck with the forklift. Shipping and quantity will determine your final cost. On my last order of 3 pallets, the cost came out to 13.19/bag including shipping. The bags were 20 lb bags. Shipping costs will vary depending on where you live.Mark Annville, PA

I bought 100 lbs of Ozark Oak 2 weeks ago at grillstuff.com. Once you pay $99 you get free shipping. So with free shipping and no tax for me it was a no brainer. I paid 10.95 per bag and got 10 bags. I considered Amazon, but it was more expensive overall. Looks like this or buying via pallet is the way to go. As for the quality of the lump. I opened my first bag last weekend and it was good. All large and medium pieces in the top half of the bag. That's all I've been through at this point.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Strongsville, OhioYes. I own a blue egg!

Long time lurker here, but rarely post. I had been using Ozark Oak and Wicked Good excusively. I can no longer find Wicked Good, and OO is becoming hard to get in Maryland. I contacted StLouis Charcoal aka Rockwood Charcoal, and have arranged a pallet for delivery. Cost comes out to $17 a bag. Not too bad, and I will post about it once I try it out on a few different cooks.

Like I said...I would still be buying WGWW if it was available. 'Nonsense' or not I can't make my Ace **** out bags of WGWW for me...they simply do not have it and will no longer have it (according to Lee at WGWW).Anderson, SC

Now I'm really thankful for HEB and their Central Market brand. Have you looked at Costco?

My plan is to go back to BGE/RO until I find something better. Was not dissatisifed with those before, just had found something much better.
On the search for my new Charcoal of choice. Need to get back to NakedWhiz site for some review of his research.
Watching here closely for ideas.

It's unfortunate that WW is no longer available at my neighborhood Ace affiliate. I bought 5 bags of RO and I'm not a fan at all.boatbum said:My plan is to go back to BGE/RO until I find something better. Was not dissatisifed with those before, just had found something much better.

Yep, 20-lbs bags, 30 on a pallet, and 700+ miles away @ $17/bag. Wouldn't be much more to SC, since it's about the same mileage. Now he saved about $100 by picking it up at the shipper's depot since there's a big surcharge for residential delivery (or worse, needing a liftgate).
I saw you asked for the website above..... http://www.stlcharcoal.com

I had my application open anyway, so I just punched in a general ZIP for Anderson, SC (biz address.) It would be a little cheaper.....$16.80/bag for one pallet of 20's. That would drop to $15.30/bag for two pallets since they can double stack them in the truck. -
I just bought a couple bags of RO, but I feel like I should just take them back. Thanks for the bbqguys.com link. Flat 6.95 shipping is great for a few bags to try. The others with free shipping of $100 is nice for the larger orders. Looks like I can try this much talked about Ozark Oak!Dunedin, FL
