The Professional Chef’s Choice
If you want to master the flame, you need to fuel it with the best. Our 12kg Quebracho Restaurant Grade Charcoal is the industry standard for professional kitchens, pitmasters, and dedicated backyard braaiers across the UK. It is packed in the iconic 12kg blue bag. It is a premium product of South America, featuring a specialized blend of White Quebracho and other high-density hardwoods.
Bigger Lumps, Better Performance
Conventional supermarket BBQ charcoal is often comprised of small, dusty chips that choke your grill’s airflow and burn out before your meat is cooked. Our restaurant-grade charcoal is meticulously screened to guarantee extra-large pieces ranging from 40mm to 150mm. These larger lumps provide optimal oxygen flow. This results in a fire that burns significantly hotter and sustains its temperature for an incredibly long time.
Safe, Clean, and Smoke Control Authorised
Safety and cleanliness are paramount when cooking over live fire. This Quebracho blend is renowned for its stability. It rarely spits or sparks, allowing you to cook with confidence. It burns so cleanly and efficiently that it is officially authorised as a suitable fuel for use in UK smoke control areas. Whether you are firing up a domestic Weber, a heavy-duty South African braai, a tandoor, or a professional Josper oven, this charcoal delivers a unique, natural flavour profile every single time.
What is White Quebracho charcoal?
Quebracho (derived from the Spanish quiebra hacha, meaning “axe breaker”) is an incredibly dense hardwood native to South America. When carbonized into charcoal, its extreme density allows it to generate intense heat and burn for much longer than standard lumpwood or briquettes.
Can I use restaurant grade charcoal on a normal domestic BBQ?
Absolutely. While it is the preferred fuel for commercial kitchens, domestic barbecue enthusiasts highly prize it. The larger 40mm–150mm pieces are perfect for maintaining steady temperatures during long, slow cooks or for achieving the blistering heat needed to sear thick steaks.
How do I light extra-large charcoal lumps?
Because the pieces are larger and denser, they require good airflow to catch. We recommend using a chimney starter paired with natural wood wool firelighters. Avoid using chemical lighter fluids, as these will taint the natural wood-fired flavour of your food.
Is this charcoal safe for smoke control areas?
Yes. Our 12kg Quebracho Restaurant Grade Charcoal is an authorised fuel, meaning it has been tested and approved for legal use within designated UK smoke control areas due to its clean, low-smoke combustion.
