Karolina Komodo Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hello to all and thanks to those who sacrificed to have the freedom we enjoy today. Quick question.....I am about to do a couple pork butts for memorial day tomorrow and realized I am out of cocochar but have coffee which I haven't tried before. Will this be ok in terms of flavor profile and not burning too hot? Maybe adjust air flow down from what I'm used to with coco? I do have some "all natural" charcoal from the local store as well but trust KK products most of course. Thanks! Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5698k Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 No problem. Coincidentally, I very recently decided to give up on all charcoals that aren't from Dennis, and I especially like the coco char. Since you've used it, you know what I mean. I used RO for a bit, but it got to the point that it offended my nose, and I was seeing too much evidence of it all over my patio. We don't have much lump selection locally here in Nola, and by the time I have anything shipped, I'm close enough to coco price as far as I'm concerned. Good cooking!Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisLinkletter Posted May 30, 2017 Report Share Posted May 30, 2017 Airflow settings determine how much charcoal will burn.. Charcoal always burns at the max volume for the given airflow, therefore all charcoal will create the same temp with the same settings.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
