Can't say enough good things about the boys at the Charcoal Store.

They got Lump Briquets, fresh wood and a whole slew of another goodies.
$6.50 for 20 pounds of briquets of Oak and Hickory, and $20 for a 40 LB of Lump.


Its good enough for the President and the Prime Minister of Japan, its good enough for me!

This is a great place with nice people running it. The briquets are like OCC Rancher perfect for our orriginal Stumps GF223. All Natural with little ash. I am going down today to get a few bags. We are having a team cook this weekend in my backyard. Four pounds of briquets should last about sixteen hours in the Stumps.
Thanks

Newlyweds flavorama #5 is available Gordins Butcher Shoppe in Olive Branch. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sou...-89.830399&spn=0.226801,0.445976&z=12&iwloc=A

5 for $20 or $5 each. Makes a great base, cheap and made right here in town.

I think I have seen them at some other grocery locations as well. Shnucks always seems to have a wide selection. Bass Pro Shop also has some one off rubs, like plow boys.
 
Guerry you were sitting on a gold mine and didn't let anybody know. LOL Need a trip to Memphis soon not all that far from here.

Rodger, you should've emailed or called. We could grab lunch or so if you are going to be in Memphis? I'd love for you to come by and check out my trailer.

I wish I had more time James. I'll get off somewhere around 5 tomorrow and have a 4 hour drive home. Not much time to visit this trip up, but I should be back soon and have more free time. I saw the pics and love all the stainless in the new trailer.:thumb:
