Hello,

I saw bags of barbecue roasted wood on the big box ( http://www.cdm-torrefaction.com/ ).

Does anyone have econological details as to the use of this product in relation to that of charcoal?

Thank you in advance.

Hello, about your roasted wood, I can't answer you, however, when I barbecue, I simply use the branches from the size of my trees from last fall, which have dried in the garage all winter ! it's economical, cheap and it works, plus I don't tell you about the good smell of the branches of the blackcurrant tree (I don't know if it's called that, but you can see what I'm talking about).

Hello,
Blackcurrant or blackcurrant, it's all good!

With our friends, we for our part tested balls obtained from charcoal from coconut shells, incredible, it burns slowly for almost three hours !!
Very regular fire with a fairly high temperature, ideal.
With half a bag, we cooked for 8 people without reloading.
The packaging announces "fair trade" which was not to displease us.

I also like the smell of fir, the kind of advantage that charcoal does not offer!

cheers !

(bibiphoque, if you have an address for your fuel, I'm interested)

We ratiboisé an old berberis (barberry) last fall. When we burned it, the smell was delicious, captivating like a perfume, almost sweet. I would not recommend it for smoking food (too special) but just for fun.

Hello,
Didn't you end up with yellow hands?
(It seems to me that it is a dye plant)

Indeed, its wood is yellow and can be used as a dye. But as the thorns are very numerous, we did not handle it with the hands but with a lopper as pliers.

There you go, guys!
