Anyone familiar with this lump?

Saw this for 9.99 for two #18 bags.  Never heard of it, but figured for the price I would try it.

    Distribute the weight across multiple pavers.  Limit the chance of a few pavers settling.

    It’s good stuff for the Weber. Not lump. Darn good price though.

    Secondary benefit is it moves my egg up to proper cooking level ;)

    Just making sure you use lighter fluid with the briquets. Works best when poured down the DFMT.

    Uniform pieces, hardly and chips, very little dust. Almost no VOCs, smoke is clear in minutes. Above average ash. 
    Lots of heat for grilling/searing, works best with the dome off, for the price you can’t go wrong.

    It is at least better than Royal Oak Briquettes. Less of the real smelly smoke, catches faster, burns cleaner, easier to light.
    Bag is easier to open as well.

     Fun fact, those needles on Golden Barrel cacti are very flammable.

    They make it with lighter fluid already infused into the lump. Makes it so much easier to light. I’ve used in in my eggs ever since Wes Johnson told me about it.
