Has anyone else used Chef’s Select Charcoal?????? I have been using it for close to 3 months and although I love it I am having a small issue with it running away from me. I start my fire just like I do with KB and it burns great for about 2.5 hours and then it wants to run away on me going from 230 to 275. It does this in my Tucker Cooker and my BWS Party. When I use a “snake” or fuse burn it helps but it still runs up to 250. The Chef’s Select is a mix of oak and hickory and it tends to pop like lump does.
The temp run up does not bother me on Boston butts and brisket but I do not want to cook my ribs that hot.
Has anyone used this charcoal or do you have any suggestions?
