I used to go through about three $25.00 propane tanks a year before I switched over to charcoal. I find charcoal to be a bit more expensive.:icon_smile_tongue: I've gone through 4 bags just in the last month alone! At $10.00 a bag, that get's a bit spendy.
My PBC is a big part of that. She eats about 1/4 bag with every cook. I don't regret getting rid of my gassers and switching to charcoal; my bbq has improved by an order of magnitude. I look at it as an investment in my relationships with friends and family through outstanding meals and cold brews enjoyed with friends while "tending the fire". Even so, it's a dang expensive hobby.
I expect I'll spend $300 on charcoal over the next year, and that's before I start shelling out $ for meat! :shocked:
I'm curious. How many 20lb bags do you guys estimate you go through a year?
