Thaan Charcoal Thai Style (5)

Buena calidad, quema lenta combustión con poco humo

Very good quality. I bought it for work, the charcoal last longer than other ordinary charcoal.

Awesome stuff!! This charcoal is similar to binchotan. It burns HOT and lasts a long time. I live in a condo building and not supposed to have a grill on the balcony but with this charcoal being odorless*, smokeless**, and producing little ash***, I've been grilling like a madman! Again, because of the condo situation I have to be a bit rogue with how I light it as it takes a bit to get going. What I do is put the logs in the oven on the top rack on a foil covered broiler plate with the broiler on high for an hour. While the charcoal heats, I prep my grill items - marinade meats, prep veg, get salad put together. After the hour is up, I remove the plate with the coals and make a b-line for the balcony. I use tongs and place in my konro (yakitori grill****) then I take a pastry torch and hit em hard until they turn a little red. Once theyre going, theyre going! The heat spreads nicely and grilling can start within 10-15 minutes. Best thing about Thaan Charcoal is it is reusable!!! The first time I used, I dunked the coals in water when I was finished but that was kinda messy so from then on I just closed the vents on the grill and covered the top with a sheet pan and it snuffed out the coals nicely. Next time I want to grill I can take the old coals and put them in the broiler with some new ones. The older ones are usually smaller and many times will come out of the broiler nice and red already. This makes it a lot easier to get the coals going using my method as I can make a nice little teepee. I bought 2 boxes (12-14 logs/box...I forget exact amount) and I've grilled about a dozen times and only a few logs into the 2nd box because of the reusable factor. If you dont have the restrictions I have, starting the logs in a chimney starter will get em going quick and hot! Highly recommend this stuff. It imparts zero charcoal/fuel flavor on the food but allows for a nice bbq experience.* The coals are odorless but if you grill items that are high in fat content (burgers, steaks, etc) there will be an odor when the fat drips onto the coals.** The coals are smokeless but if you grill items that are high in fat content (burgers, steaks, etc) there will be smoke when the fat drips onto the coals. I cooked burgers on my little grill one night and smoked out the whole balcony and then some. Lesson learned. They came out great though :)*** The coals produce ash, obviously because they are coals. However, they do not really produce the red ash sparks that could be problematic.**** In case you're interested in the yakitori grill that I use, link is here:  Fire Sense Large Yakatori Charcoal GrillFire Sense Large Yakatori Charcoal Grill

Works great for yakitori. I stack the logs in a chimney and they don't take that long to light. Once lit, they are very hot and produce great, clean heat for grilling. Leftover logs can be dunked in water to reuse later.

Muy calientes y duran muchísimo (mas de 8 horas hasta que se apagaron completamente). Cuesta bastante encenderlos.
