[Sca-cooks] Charcoal

[Siegfried Heydrich]

    I generally find it at Wal-Mart, the brand is Real Flavor, and it's made
by the American Charcoal Co. My last bag was on sale, $5.87 for a 10 lb bag.
If you have access to lots of wood and want to do an interesting project,
making charcoal isn't that hard, just very time consuming. I wouldn't think
you'd want to make too much, but it would sure be an interesting art/sci
project or gift for your favorite blacksmith.
    Here's a link that goes into more detail -
