Default Is Royal Oak Regional?

I use Royal oak lump in my Eggs all the time. I bought a bag at Walmart in Bullhead City and cooked a steak in my Egg this week,. I swear it tasted way better than it usually does. I wonder if possibly the wood to make the lump was a different type to start. If I would have thought I would have read bag and seen if it had an origin of the pakaging. An opinions on this?

I do know ther is a Royal Oak plant 20 minutes from my home. It is in Meta, Mo. There is also one in Salem, Missouri, which is a little over an hour from me. I'm sure there are others but I guess I have to say yes....it's a Missouri thing for the most part.

I don't know where they make the stuff, but I'm glad they do!
I love Royal Oak Lump.
I used to swear by the Kingsford coals, now I hardly use the stuff.
I love using my smoker 5 or 6 times before I get enough ash to clean out.
Sweet Baby!

You can usually find the country of origin on the bag somewhere. They have Argentinian, Brazilian, Paraguay, and USA........all with varying degrees of quality.

I haven't been thrilled with Royal Oak. Seems to burn too fast in the Spicewine. And it just feels too light to me. Maybe I'm not doing something right.
