Black Ranch Red Quebracho Argentina Briquettes Pillow Shape 3 kg
Black Ranch briquettes, is a high-quality, high-calorie briquette. It is plant-based and produced in the province of Santiago del Estero from the wood of the quebracho (holm oak) tree. This hardwood has a very dense structure, so that the vegetable charcoal has a very high fire value, which is reflected in the duration of the burning and the high temperatures. Argentinian hardwood from the Quebracho tree.
It comes from Spanish: "Quiebra Hacha": "Breaks the ax." Burns for hours longer than 'normal' charcoal and can therefore be used several times. Very heavy hardwood; 1.2 kg which gives the briquettes a particularly high burning value. This translates into a very long burning time and a high temperature!
Charcoal is offered in various types. A good charcoal contains a rough selection of obsolete pieces. As a result, the charcoal burns constantly and sufficient oxygen can get between the pieces, so that all pieces can ignite.
A good charcoal is not mixed, but consists of one type of wood. This is also important to keep the temperature constant. If you have a kamado such as a Big Green Egg or a Bastard, then charcoal is the perfect fuel. Charcoal is able to burn with very little oxygen and at the same time is able to become horribly hot.
Briquettes require a minimal amount of oxygen and often go out prematurely when used in a kamado.
