Big K Coconut Shell Charcoal Briquette Test

The same as the other charcoal tests that I have done for a bit of fun and to offer some insights into different charcoals. I fill the same starter chimney with charcoal, weigh it, light it, and then the flames hit near the top and go into the gateway Drum Smoker. The Flame Boss 200 maintains the set temperature at 230°F, and we can see how hard the fan has to work to do so. We can see the temperature fluctuations measured by the Flame Boss and compare them to the readings from the TermaQ, a calibrated thermometer.

Description

Big K’s Coconut Shell Briquette is a seriously high-performance briquette. With a cooking time of up to 2 hours and high heat output, this briquette is up to the task no matter what you’re cooking. It’s extremely quick and easy to light, too, so there’s less waiting around to get up to temperature.
Plus, this timber-free product is made entirely from sustainable sources. It’s manufactured by carbonising waste coconut shells, creating consistently sized briquettes that are ideal for every barbecue.
