I use my Kamado Joe weekly if not 3-4 times a week. I have experimented with a number of different charcoals and the Fogo Super Premium is the BEST - hands down not even close game over!!!
Great product!!
Perfect size chunks for smoking. Can't wait for my Fogo Rub!!
The charcoal chunks are huge and once its starts it does seem to burn for a while . However, it take much much too long to start....I tried 30 minutes and finally went to an hour in advance of my cook start . Over an hour to get the fire going well wasn't expected and nor is it acceptable.
Sorry only rate it 2 stars
Need I say more? This product is the best!
I have used numerous brands for my Big Joe and nothing comes close to the premium Fogo lump. The chunks are huge and they burn forever. Great stuff!
Honestly, you have made me a customer for life. I’ve tried a bunch of other charcoal and starters, but FOGO’s is the top of the line. I tell everyone I can about it.
Best charcoal on the market. You got a customer for life. Converted many friends
its easy to light, gets hot quick, no odd flavors like other brands, huge chunks!
What more could a green egger need??!!
I only use Fogo in 4 BGEs. The free shipping and customer service is excellent.
So, I purchased the signature bundle, as I had a couple longer cooks planned, and the Super Premium is ideal for those. The Premium I use for the hotter, faster cooks, as the chunks are smaller than the Super Premium. This is a great ‘mix and match’ bundle if you cook a variety of styles.
FOGO gives you a great flavor and burns extremely well for long cooks like brisket.
First time using lump. I was hesitant at first switching from original kingsford, mostly because of the cost and consistency. Although there is a learning curve, the results were amazing. As far as the cost, I find it the same considering that you can shut the dampers and reuse it without a problem. Another huge plus is the ash build up. Hardly any, which is important when smoking. No more kicking off the ash every several hours
This is my favorite option for long slow cooks. It burns clean and the large pieces last a long time for low and slow cooking. Other brands I have used often have very small pieces or other debris in the bag. Since switching to FOGO I have not had issues with rocks or pieces of metal in the bag and this is now my favorite charcoal for my Big Green Egg.
I love the large chunks vs the crushed charcoal I typically find in other bags. The initial cost appears high for a 35 pound back. But if you look at what actually gets burned per pound bought, it’s very comparable for a superior product.
Love the super premium lump charcoal. This is my go to product of choice and it works great!
Great company, and great coal. Only one I use and I BBQ a LOT!
Great customer service and quick at shipping. The lump lights easily and has great food taste.
Long burning, solid charcoal. This stuff is great for caveman steaks as there is little ash.
This is the best.it burn's hot and almost no Ash and never and Sparks.
These are by far the best starters ive used. Help consistent start for smoking or in the chimney for grilling. Beats flying sparks with a mapp torch. A little pricey but you get what you pay for
