Was recommended the dirty dozen from a colleague. Only tried a few to date, both rubs and marinades have been excellent.
Haven't used them yet but supplier had a good reputation so im sure they'll be good.
ProQ 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.

Notes:
- Hard to get lit and up to burning chimney and I ended up using charcoal to light it.
- Cubes might not be the best design for air flow. Still took 20 m to get going with fan assist.
- Still look at that burn time, low drop off, and ash nothing left.
