I sometimes use lump too. Our local firewood house sells mesquite in 40lb bags for $10.
But for someone like myself who produces mediocre bbq it makes no difference to me what I burn as fuel. They all come out ok....:)))
Charcoal to me is convenient and reliable so I use it a lot.

but it's the look on your face as check for larger chunks, shall we say, that scares children and upsets other customers..

I forget to check there. I worked for Lowe's for a number of years and Home Depot was a curse word around my house.. I only recently started going to the HD.
