Anybody spot an ad for Rancher Charcoal at Home Depot for 2.99 yet? I havent seen any but I remember that it was rumored the sale may repeat for 4th of July.
I did not like my experience with Rancher Charcoal. Burns okay, but you get alot of white ash which coats everything badley. Also 75% of the briquettes crumble after only one burn in my Weber Kettle.
I usually work with Kingsford and can get 75% of the briquettes to make a second burn. I much prefer Kingsford, is a greatly superior product.
I've checked around the Tulsa area, and most of the Home Depots are out of Rancher. They tell me that it was a one-time shipment arranged by the buyer at the head office.
Today I talked to a Mr Krause at the Original Charcoal Company, and he verified that the Home Depot thing was a one-time shot. Evidently Kingsford makes lots of concessions for HD.
Anyone up for a barrage of e-mail to HD asking them to carry Original Rancher?
The only problem is getting them to sell it again at 2.99. How we going to influence that?
