This stuff is awesome.  Opened a bag for the first time and couldn't get over the size of the pieces.  One of the ones I dumped in the egg was 10" long and 4 or 5" thick. Really dense wood as well.  Mixed it in with some cheaper stuff I have for a turbo butt.  Initial impression is that it is better than BGE coal and is the same price.

    KJ lump is second only to rock wood in my opinion. 

    I read the other day they will be releasing another type soon that is referred to as big block.

    Red Bags are great, the other colors are so-so, at least as of last year.
    They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

    2nd only to Rockwood.

    I like it. Takes longer to get ready than Rockwood and produces a bit more ash. The deal at Costco can't be beat if you run across a roadshow.
