Royal Oak Vs Cowboy lump. Photo comparison
Ok guys, here is a quick comparison of the two lumps, both look great, the Royal oak has larger pieces, as you can see the Cowboy lump's are more like branches. I noticed some bark inside the Royal oak, and two pieces were not completely carbonized.
    Royal Oak  Cowboy  You be the judge. Thanks for looking.

I'm a big RO fan, too. Besides the Kroger brand, RO is usually all I can find. I've seen Cowboy a few times, but it's usually about $4 more.

Looks a lot different from the old Cowboy. At least maybe it's usable now, because you can always seem to find cowboy if you can't find anything else.

I hope you put it back in the bag after the photo. Can't be wasting that good stuff.
I have never used anything but RO on my own cooks and you just reassured me that I was doing a good thing.

My local purveyor of BBQ stuff recently added Lazzeri lump to their stock of offerings. It seems to be cheaper than RO on a unit basis. Anybody use this stuff?

Cool to see. It would be interesting to have an even larger sample size of bags to compare and see if it continues to hold true. I do prefer RO to Cowboy.
