Buying Guide: Choosing FOGO Charcoal

Lump Charcoal for Grilling
FOGO lump charcoal is made from Inga wood. The 8.8 lb bag is hand-selected into consistent medium lumps for everyday grilling, while the 17.6 lb bag uses XL lumps for low and slow BBQ. Both offer a clean and sweet flavor.

Briquets and Fire Starters
FOGO coconut shell briquets offer long, steady heat with low smoke, less ash and a light smoky flavor. FOGO fire starters are made from aspen wood and vegetable wax with no paraffin, and their airflow design helps them light charcoal quickly. Choose the fire starter count that matches how often you grill.

Chimney Starter and Gift Bag
The Blazaball chimney starter has a protective barrier that keeps airflow moving so your FOGO starters stay lit. The Santa's Bag gift bag is a holiday option for grilling fans and includes a red ribbon to close it. Check the bag count and weight on the package before you order.
