Mista, get a couple bags and try it yourself. That's the only way to go. At the fundraiser, Walmart donated a bunch of their charcoal. We couldn't get the smoker up to temp. BB2 finally shoveled it all out and put in some Kingsford - bingo, temps went up to where they were supposed to be.

Personal experience with it is the only way to go.
