Oh, awesome! I was going to do a brisket yesterday (isn't Labor Day the unofficial "cook meat outside day"?), but the smoke and fire danger situation has outdoor grilling banned right now.
The hardware store I was at only had "Frontier" brand lump coal and the ridiculously expensive Green Egg lump charcoal.
I've started doing a little research and there is a huge variance in prices for the different brands. Do you have a favorite?
