How much do I need?
That depends on what you’re cooking and if you’re using one or both sides of the grill. Typically, 6-9 pieces of charcoal is a good place to start. Pro Tip: Extinguish coals when finished and use them next time along with 4-6 new pieces of charcoal.
Can I use this in my charcoal kettle or other grill?
Absolutely, NOMAD Fire has incredible burning characteristics and can be used in any charcoal grill/ smoker, offset smoker or fire pit.
Do I have to use this charcoal for my NOMAD?
No, you can use any charcoal or wood meant for cooking. We do not recommend match light charcoal or anything with harmful chemicals.
What makes this charcoal so special?
Most commercially produced charcoals contain filler and additives, like silica sand and sawdust. NOMAD Fire consists of fruitwoods, cassava powder and water. That’s it.
Not only is it 100% All-Natural, its extreme density, high heat, and long burn times make it a perfect option for hibachi-style grilling and smoking on the go.
