He had a bad run of it, especially just after getting the contract to supply Weber with Charcoal.
Don't know if he's still going or not.....but I wonder if he's gone into pellets instead. Might be more profitable in the long run.

You know Davo, I hope it is, He was a good fellow. And a great BBQ,er with that big Weber Ranch.
He was a great contributor.
I've found a site that sells home pellet making machines

Just looks like damn hard (and dudty) work to me!.....and you've got all those BTU's to round up and count!
I'd rather burn them than make them!

I agree with Chris, we looked at producing here & apart from the cost, it was too difficult.
maybe one day.
