Hey BD, Jeff's Backyard is the only reliable source of retail lump in S.A. They carry B&B in 10 & 20 lb. bags. Pricy but available. Send me an email. I'm working on a substantial lump score in the next couple of weeks. Tyler P.S. - You also might want to call up some restaurant supplies. My buddy in that business used to get me 40 lb. bags for $13. Unfortunately he passed away a few months ago. P.S.S. - There are a couple of woods yards out on 16 toward Helotes who will sell you a pickup load of ugly wood for $40. |

Academy used to carry a very fine product (Cherokee?) but I haven't tried there since I started using B&B. BBQs ForWhores usually has a couple of brands of lump but well,,,,,,,,,, Tyler |
