Wegmans store brand lump. I'm impressed!

chriscw81 · Feb 5, 2013

I know it's been talked about before but I picked up some today and I'm really impressed. It's a 10 pound bag for 6.29. I've heard it was made by royal oak too. The bag had no dust in it and it's the first time I've seen any lump look like this. I dug through the bag and I didn't see any rocks, nails, frogs, lizards, or anything other than lump. It didn't have any real large pieces but I prefer not to have to break up giant pieces anyway. I've only used cowboy (and its been horrible) and wicked good(which I like) so I don't have much to compare against but me likey. I'm gonna burn it for the first time this weekend and I'll try to remember to post an update on how it went. In the meantime, here are a few pics:

This is true. Before I found this stuff I had only seen WG and cowboy in my area.

FYI, I understand that Kroger Lump is also made by Royal Oak. I bought some, and was impressed with it, too.

That certainly seems a fair price!

Grabbed two bags this Summer and wish I had grabbed more. I too have been using Cowboy - bags of tree trunks and dust for the most part. Next time I'm in the area I'll pick up more wegmans. Pretty good stuff and a good price too!

I liked it too. Burned very hot. My only complaint was that it was sparky as all hell in the chimney.

You can't go wrong with anything Wegmans brand. I'm lucky enough to shop at one every week. I don't know how you folks without them survive. lol

That started about a month ago and is one of their 6 month guaranteed prices. I cooked one up about 3 weeks ago, good stuff.

Anyone ever try this? I"ve been thinkin of it- probably will when I'm by a store.

We shop at Wegmans on a regular basis. I love their stores. Everything is good quality and fairly priced. I have seen their lump before but was leary on buying any. I'm pretty picky about my lump. Keep us posted, if it's good I'll definitely stock up.

For those in Northern VA and Maryland, give Humphrey Lump a try. A brethren, BBQ Equipment Store sells it. Burns clean, hot, and long. No trash in it and consistently sized.

the prices probably differ regionally, we've had that price for close to a year.

My father in law used to use Cowboy, and it sparked too much for him on his Green Egg. He switched to Wegman's as well, and swears by it.

I'll be driving through VA next week. I'll have to stop in. I'm sure the family won't mind some more halfmoons also. :roll:
