What have you found in your charcoal bag?

wnkt · 09-12-2007, 08:04 PM

I have heard of finding interesting things in a bag of charcoal...but I havent had any myself til now. After my charcoal has burned to ash and gone cold I have found a couple dirt clods. Yesterday when I was dumping out the ashes I found this rock that looks like a goldfish cracker. Its kinda flat and a little bigger than a quarter.
When I first saw it I thought it was a arrow head but its not even close to sharp.

Have you guys found anything interesting in your charcoal?

Cowboy lump.

I actually found a piece of TURNED DOWN wood, like it was in a lathe.

I think it may have been a table leg. Coulda been a very interesting coincidence...but, I don't know.

Mine didn't come from the factory. Daughter used empty bag to pick up Dog $hit. What a suprise when I dumped it into the UDS. Did I burn it?
HELL NO DAUGHTER GOT TO PICK IT UP TWICE.

I've found insulation, melted rope, wire, glass and gobs of moon rocks. I saved them for years but finally tossed them out. This is the biggest moon rock I've ever found.

I thought Cowboy was mill scraps.

Like I said, coulda been my imagination. But after reading the horror stories about it online, it woiuld be understandable.

I once had a half burnt Coke can in a bag of Cowboy and an unburnt piece of flooring scrap (tongue and groove). Woops.
