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 regulates the set temperature 2of 30F, and we can see how hard the fan has to work to do this. We can see the temperature fluctuations measured by the Flame Boss, and we compare this to the readings from the TermaQ, a calibrated thermometer.
Description
Dura is our longest burning lumpwood charcoal, with a cooking time of over 3 hours. If you need to depend on consistent heat for a long cook, Dura is ideal for both home and restaurant barbecuers. Whether you’re roasting a whole chicken for a party at home or you need to make sure your restaurant grill is up to temperature for the full service, Dura is long-lasting and dependable, making it the perfect choice.
ACH15 and ACH12 are the same charcoal but in different size bags.
