Lump on sale at Costco

BC Griller · 07-12-2008, 02:41 PM

$3.97 for 20# of The Original Charcoal Company lump here in West Michigan. I've used it for a couple of cooks and been pleased. Just completed my very first brisket (9 1/2 hours in a primo jr. I'll have pics shortly if it turned out. Forget I mentioned anything if it doesn't.)

That is a great price!! I haven't used that brand but have heard good things.

That's the same company that makes Rancher...I hope it hits our Costco soon...

I'll have check costco here. That's a deal.

mbshop · 07-12-2008, 06:06 PM

my costco probably won't get it. they can't even get normal stuff that i see at other costco's. at least they got tri tips.

Got a SKU# for it? Thanks.

No Picks of the brisket yet? Did it happen?

Thanks for the tip on the Lump. Does Costco have the deal where if you are not a member you can pay a % to buy there?

How do you like the Primo Jr? I am thinking on either the JR or XL like the oval Idea.

I checked our Costco, and they don't have it, can't find it any any of the national stores, and it's not on line.

I know the product manager there pretty well, and she thought maybe it was a regional trial thing?? are any of the rest of you seeing this in your local stores??

It happened. There are pics for proof, and thanks for asking. I'll start a new thread with the pics and the full story shortly.

I think they do, but it has been so long since I've joined I can't remember. (this may also be a senior moment but how could I tell?)

As I look at some of the amazing set ups some on this site have, I am reminded equipment envy is something we never grow out of. Having said that, I REALLY enjoy my Jr. The majority of my cooks are for 3 or less people and there's plenty of room with the oval shape. You'll see shortly that it fits a full brisket easily as well. Having said that, if we entertained more I would go with the XL.

I used this Costco lump for the brisket. 9 1/2 hours and the Jr easily could have gone another 4 I think. The lump burned pretty clean and certainly not too fast.
