    That’s your ceramic.

    Kidding aside, where did you buy it from, reputable source?

    Shit happens. I think too many think their charcoal is coming from a sterile medical grade facility of purity. Go look up how it’s made. It’s a dirty, industrial process. Hardwood is expensive and getting harder to come by and charcoal producers are having to go to alternate sources to get it.

    It’s part of the kiln used to make the charcoal. No biggy.

    Every brand does this stuff. High end expensive bags and the cheapest ones out there. JD doesn’t do it very often, and for its price point the infrequency of it happening makes it worth it for many people.

    It’s far from infallible but out of 15 bags I think I’ve only had one or two instances of garbage in them, where as with brands like Big Block or Royal Oak I’ve had trash in a majority of bags.

    Well yeah, it’s a fire brick /s

    I’ve tried pretty much all the brands and random garbage, bricks, chunks of burnt plastic, lots of shinges, garbage found in all of them. I’ve switched to Kingsford Natural Hardwood for its uniformity and quality control. It’s nice to buy from a company that has source materials coming from saw mills vs random South American burn pits or whatever.

    Happened to me a few bags ago. Happens.

    I’ve found the same thing. It’s fire brick and like another commenter said, it’s no big deal. Check out some of the nasty shit that comes out of the “affordable” brands.

    I have had a whole brick in mine before. KJ big lump. I sent them a picture and they sent a whole bag…didn’t ask for it.

    Always been a B&B fan myself never found anything in a bag personally.

    Kamado Joe Charcoal on third bag and no trash so far. Just got my Kamado this fall so haven’t gone through different brands yet.

    I’ve burned at least 20 bags of JD, never had any rocks. Cowboy will fill a small flower pot every bag… but so far good luck with JD. Same for KJ bigs, no rocks.
