Has anyone tried restaurant grade lumpwood? A friend recommended it for grilling, saying it lasts a long time.
Would you usually use briquettes for grilling? I though tit was more for longer, lower temp cooks?
I bought briquettes and the only ones i could get were ones that you light the bag.
Would i be better off just using the briquettes without the firelighter bag, to avoid any smells etc from the bag itself or would it make no difference?
The briquettes I used where the ones I used for my previous cook. When doing quick grilling I would normally use lumpwood, but it was just more convenient to use the briquettes because they where already on the grill. I charred the thighs over direct heat for around ten minutes, then indirectly for another five, with a slice of gouda on top of each. They're still ok for another (quick) cook, so will get three cooks out of one pile of briquettes.
I'll be ordering a 15kg bag of decent charcoal for £25 for the next cook.
That's hot enough for everything!

Already aware it needs to get to 95°C but an idea of oven temp and times would be a big help.
@Longtallronnie I found this video the most helpful. My first attempt at pulled pork was a disaster, but after following the guidelines in this one mg second attempt came out perfectly. It explains all the relevant temperatures you need to take note of.
Good luck mate. Hope it works for you too.
Oh well, using briquettes and minion method tomorrow. Gonna start around 10ish, aiming for a 5-6 hour cook so should hopefully allow some time for dicking about. If it’s ready earlier I’m guessing it’ll be fine if it’s wrapped and keep the bbq on a lower temp.
