Kamado Joe Big Block Lump Charcoal

This lump charcoal is crafted from a blend of premium, 100% natural hardwoods including guayaibi, white quebracho, aistal, guayacan, and mistol. These dense woods are selected specifically for their ability to burn hot and provide a clean, authentic wood-fired flavor.
