Is anyone's Ace Hardware still getting Rockwood shipments? None of my local Ace have gotten any in since the beginning of June.  Meadowcreek Bbq sold out as well.

    Appreciate the heads up..  Nice to see that it comes in a box.  Shipping carriers can be brutal around here and I'd prefer local pickup.  If not locally available soon, this will be the route to go. Thanks again..

    I'm in South East Wisconsin. All my Ace's are wiped out of Rockwood and have been for like a month. Stlcharcoal told me they essentially bought up his inventory a month ago. There will be more at Ace soon....

    I agree but last time I was at ace I bought the last bag of RW and a bag of KJ. That night I fired up the kJ charcoal,  it took for ever to get going, then the temp spiked, and my wife said I smelled like gas.

    Ace in Colorado Springs ran out of Rockwood three weeks ago. They "think" that they might get a shipment next week.

    Say it ain't so @WeberWho.  His last log-in shows active earlier today.  BTW he enthusiastically participated in a virtual Friday night watering hole session some weeks back.

    I'm sorry, that was my lame nod/joke about the movie Back To The Future. It was a stretch for anyone to get or understand.

    After seeing these pallets of lump stacked 3 high, one on top of the other, are we still allowed to blame carriers for the bags full of dust?   B)

    Bottom ones go to restaurants in St Louis.  Anything shipped  LTL goes out of the other warehouse where it's 2 high max.  Nice try!!  :P
