- This is a video review of Kamado Joe Big Block Charcoal. The lumps are very large. The bag says Worlds Largest, not sure if that is true but it says it on the label.
When you go to the Kamado Joe web site they list the wood used as a blend of of hardwood - Guayacan, Guayaibi, Mistal, and White Quebracho.
I have reviewed Quebracho before, so make sure you check out the B&B and Jealous Devil reviews as well for comparison.
Tools I used:

Thanks for watching! - Jak na to + styl
Okay Thanks. Was wondering why I didn't get the notice, checked the bell, and now I will get all.
I appreciate this video. Personally I like Fogo super premium. I have a Kamado Joe Big Joe III, so when using that I don't use a chimney, because the Big Joe has a fire basket, so I fill the basket, then light, so maybe that would make a difference. Anyway thanks for doing this.
I am just glad it helps.
Oh and FOGO is my next video
Really dig your videos Sir! Royal Oak has been my go-to but just today I visited Academy Sports and they finally had some B&B in the brown bag. I recallled your B&B / Royal Oak comparison......I couldn't grab that last brown bag fast enough!! Keep Flying Smoke and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Thank you so much! It means so much to us
Good video! This lump is my favorite to use in my Weber Summit Charcoal, I think for Kamado grills the large lumps work really well, especially for low and slow, long cooks. I really like how it doesn't pop and spit sparks like other brands do, it's really clean!
That Weber is a nice fancy grill. I don’t have one but friends do and they live it
Yea I have to get some and do some cooks with it. The Fogo burns good in my Kamado Joe, and of all the ones I tried I like Fogo best. But I also want to try Jelous Devil.
Love the videos, they are helping me get through winter. If you're looking for video suggestions Id suggest doing a charcoal test on the kingsford 100% hardwood briquettes.
That made my day! I will look for them
Thermoworks is awesome! I love everything I have ever purchased from them
I do too
can I use it in my smoker? I smoke for 4 to 5 hours. Will it maintain even temp for that amount of time?
As you may know I am a a Jealous Devil man....but always good to see the other side...Thanks
Jealous devil is pure Quebracho, this is a blend
Another great review! How about a review of Jealous Devil briquettes in the future?
I’m trying… I have a couple of things to do first.
Very good video....I’ve been using Fogo super premium and want to try B & B lump and have finally found a place near me that carries it. My question to you is, how is the B & B lump charcoal?
I have a bag of FOGO for my next one
They say B&B is pretty good. I will pick up a bag and do some cooks with it and see. I love to cook with Fogo super permium, in fact, doing a couple yardbirds on the jotisserie as I type this.
I’ve had good luck with it
Have you used the B&B Mesquite lump yet? I have been using it for years and it gets the hottest of any lump I have ever used. Would love to see you review it.
I’ll pick up a bag! Thank you very much for watching and letting me know what y’all want to see.
@@FLYINGSMOKE I just picked up a couple bags of Kingsford Hardwood and this stuff is hot. Would like to see a comparison of this charcoal.
I’ll look for it
Great video as usual. Thank you. I remember when you did the Kingsford briquette review, it went over 700 degrees. I thought lump burns hotter, but usually the lump in your videos isn’t as hot as the Kingsford. Why is that?
Sometimes it depends on the grill the ambient temp or most times it has to do with how much charcoal you use
@@FLYINGSMOKE If I wanted the highest possible temp for searing, would it be better to use more charcoal or less? Less would mean better airflow so I thought a thinner layer of charcoal placed close to the food would be hottest. Is that right?
Yes. You can put more coals on one end to help too
@@FLYINGSMOKE thanks!
Airflow is why the one doesn’t light the same as the other , one acts as the intake the other is the outtake
Please do a review on Original Natural Charcoal you won’t be disappointed I’m telling you it’s my go to!!! It’s a blend of apple cherry and oak hardwoods
What stores have it?
Online internet order at Walmart.com just search Original Natural Charcoal on there website it’s a red bag they have lump hardwood and briquettes can do review on both products if you wanted to you won’t be disappointed trust me I’ve been using it for 2 years now it’s the best don’t even need to add smoking wood adds enough flavor or smoke by itself love the videos man and keep it up 👍
I’ll look into them
How do you control heat variations during competitions?
Now THAT is why I started doing these videos. By amount, and how the coals are placed. But as you can see each charcoal burns different
Also using the vents and knowing what they do to effectively move around heat helps too
@@FLYINGSMOKE maybe make a video explaining the vents. Sounds novice but for some reason my coals always burn out before I finish my cook. I use a Weber chimney and kettle grill. Usually keep bottom vents open and top half way. I try to use indirect
What coals? And do you use the indirect device that’s made for weber?
@@FLYINGSMOKE Kingsford and no I don’t use the dividers I just pour and stack them on one side and have the vents of the top above the side without the coals
I wish these videos were once a week or somthing more often, i understand people are busy tho
I have one done (FOGO) but work has been busy!
@@FLYINGSMOKE looking forward to it
Hello can you do a video of how you cook a steak please I been watching your charcoal videos and you always say you cook for competition. Can you do a cook video please
I hear ya. Can you be more specific? There are tons of things to know.
I will have to (omit) some things as only my wife knows my exact process. But I can get you. Started
Bro, where did you go?
In the industry I earn a living, we have been working at a pace that makes videos tough to make. That and the weather.
I have one more done and am editing and more on the way. Very sorry for not putting out more content
@@FLYINGSMOKE yea I get it, just checking in. I need to do more videos too...
Let’s just say I help make sure the vaccine and other stuff keeps moving on time.
No beef?!
Wendy’s?
@@FLYINGSMOKEI bought a bag of char logs. Wow, once going, those things want to BURN. I use a Weber kettle, and basically can't snuff them out. These things pull air in through closed vents, and burn to ash. Next bag, B&B briquettes
When I cook at home any charcoal will “do” but in competition I ONLY use B&B
Super ball
Enough is enough already!!! Good bye
Thanks for watching. Have a Merry Christmas
Enough of what?
@@justplanefred charcoal reviews. Should throw something on the grill while the fire is hot. You can still give temperature readings.
@@tonybean5162 I would think the meat would suck some of the temp out and different pieces of meat may take more or less temp away, but hey what do I know?
