FAQ's
Compare to
Briquettes
goodwood® mesquite charcoal bags consist of 100% natural, renewable resources, combining ease-of-lighting with the best hardwood charcoal available for cooking. Executive chefs prefer mesquite charcoal because it is hotter, cleaner and longer-burning, with a subtle sweet flavor that enhances the taste of vegetables and meats. It is also more responsive to changes in oxygen levels, making it easier to regulate its temperature.
