Briquettes made 100% from pressed coconut shell — an eco alternative to hardwood charcoal. VERY long burn time (up to 8h per load), little ash, almost no smoke. Ideal for extended low-and-slow. Neutral flavour: doesn't aromatize the meat.
BlackSellig sells premium briquettes of pressed coconut shell produced at tropical origin. Coconut shell is an agricultural by-product — zero deforestation — and once carbonized produces an extremely dense fuel: temperatures comparable to hardwood and burn time better than any wood briquette. Smoke is virtually zero and ash very fine and compact. Perfect for urban terraces with neighbours and 8-hour low & slow sessions without reloading.
If you need 8 stable hours with no reload and live in a city — this briquette has no rival.
Pros
- Coconut shell — no deforestation, renewable resource
- Up to 8 stable hours per load in a kamado
- Virtually no smoke or sparks — urban-friendly
- Very fine compact ash, easy to clean
Cons
- Slow 20-25 minute light, chimney starter mandatory
- Neutral aroma — smoking chunks are essential if you want smoke
For you if…
For extended low & slow in a closed kamado, for urban terraces where smoke is a problem and for users valuing a traceable eco fuel.
Not for you if…
If you crave traditional ember flavour — coco is neutral; go for holm oak or marabú.
