I like paying less than half the normal price for stuff I use year round. 1/2 a ton? You are crazy! Lol

Gotta ask, you cats that love the blue bag... have you tried cooking with lump & prefer the blue bag?

I went with a 20# bag of Grove lump for this last cook $10. One ring lasted 14 hours on the WSM.....

I have used lump, but its been a while. Will pick up some more and try again someday. The KBB is predictable for grilling for me, and cheap. I like it for what I do, though it is really ashy on long cooks and tends to clog up the WSM which sucks. Anymore, I typically do butts n briskets on the Performers for smoke and finish in a big roaster. Ribs or anything else all on Performers. Just me.

I picked up 400 pounds yesterday, not for smoking but for grilling.. The restaurant lump I buy has some really large chunks in it.. Great for my Longhorn but sux with my Weber.. Plus I'm in the hunt for a Stok Tower grill or Drum.. Been burning through CL with no luck. I did find one for 50 bones down where I hunt but it was an Ad from April..

Right on. Blue bag is ok for grilling, although i like the heat lump kicks out. I just have an issue with the filler kingsford uses. All that ash...

Whatever works its all good... Unless its matchlight...

I use the Blue bag in my kettle which I haven't tried any long cooks yet. So far I've only done steaks, tri tip, etc. I have yet to try a butt or ribs or anything that requires a long cook. Any time I need a long cook I seem to use my UDS and I burn lump in that. I need to try a longer cook in my kettle and see how it performs.

I use blue bag pretty much exclusively. I have nothing to compare it to except the kingsford comp. I can get and easy six plus hours out of mikey's basket which isn't a lot of fuel.
I tried lump once and liked it. Thing is I had trouble with temps as it was new to me. I get so few chances to smoke anything that I have to go with what I know. That is with my kettles. Putting the drum together in two weeks . I will most likely give lump a try again then.
