What customers say
Enthusiasts highly rate Fogo Super Premium Hardwood Lump Charcoal for its exceptional quality and consistent performance. Reviewers frequently highlight the large, uniform lumps that provide a remarkably long and hot burn with minimal ash. This charcoal offers a clean burn, reducing sparks and simplifying cleanup. A key benefit is the subtle, pure wood flavor it imparts to food, preferred over briquettes for its unadulterated taste. Fogo reliably maintains steady temperatures for both high heat searing and extended low and slow smoking. While premium priced, customers overwhelmingly agree the superior efficiency and excellent culinary results fully justify the investment for a truly elevated grilling experience.
Know before you buy
FOGO Super Premium is made from natural hardwood without the binders or fillers found in briquettes. This results in a cleaner burn, higher heat output, and a more authentic wood-smoke flavor for your food.
This specific blend features a mix of medium and small lump sizes. This variety is ideal for quick ignition and maintaining steady temperatures, though you may find some variation in piece size within each bag.
Yes, it is highly versatile. The hardwood composition allows it to reach the high temperatures needed for searing steaks, while also providing a long, consistent burn that is perfect for smoking brisket or ribs.
Because it is natural hardwood, you can use standard ignition methods like a chimney starter, fire starters, or an electric looper. Avoid using lighter fluid, as the chemicals can be absorbed by the charcoal and negatively impact the flavor of your food.
This product comes as a pack of two bags, with each bag weighing 17.6 pounds, for a total of 35.2 pounds of charcoal.
