What Are You Cooking?
This is usually the quickest way to narrow down your choice.
Burgers, Sausages & Family BBQ Food
Consider:
• Birch Charcoal
• Lumpwood Charcoal
These are practical options for straightforward direct grilling.
Steaks & High-Heat Grilling
Consider:
• Premium Oak Charcoal
• White Quebracho Charcoal
Dense hardwood charcoal is particularly relevant when strong direct heat is useful.
Brisket, Ribs & Pulled Pork
For longer sessions, consider:
• Marabu Charcoal
• Charcoal Briquettes
• Marabu Hexagonal Briquettes
Suitable smoking chunks can then be introduced during the cook.
Kamado BBQs
Premium hardwood options include:
• Marabu Charcoal
• White Quebracho Charcoal
• Oak & Hornbeam Charcoal
• Oak Charcoal
Always follow your particular kamado manufacturer's fuel recommendations.
Restaurants & Professional Charcoal Grills

• Larger-quantity charcoal options
Choose according to your grill, menu, required temperature and expected length of service.
Premium Hardwood Charcoal Somerset
Regular BBQ cooks can benefit from keeping different fuels for different sessions.
Premium Birch Charcoal
Birch Charcoal is a useful hardwood option for everyday BBQ cooking.
Consider it for:
• Burgers
• Sausages
• Chicken
• Kebabs
• Fish
• Vegetables
For a straightforward garden BBQ, Birch provides a practical starting point.
Premium Oak Charcoal
Oak Charcoal provides a denser hardwood option.
It is particularly relevant to steaks and other foods where strong direct heat is useful.
Keeping Oak alongside Birch or lumpwood gives you a simple way to cover both everyday grilling and hotter cooking.
Premium Oak & Hornbeam Charcoal
Oak & Hornbeam Charcoal provides another premium hardwood choice.
Consider it for hotter grilling, longer sessions and suitable kamado cooking.
Premium Apple Charcoal
Apple Charcoal gives keen outdoor cooks another hardwood option to explore.
It can form part of a wider selection alongside Birch, Oak, Marabu and other hardwood charcoal.
Marabu Charcoal
For cooking sessions that run for several hours, Marabu Charcoal becomes particularly relevant.
Consider it for:
• Brisket
• Pulled pork
• Ribs
• Longer smoker sessions
• Suitable kamado cooking
• Frequent charcoal cooking
It also provides another option for professional users.
White Quebracho Restaurant Charcoal
White Quebracho is a dense hardwood charcoal suited to demanding cooking.
It is particularly relevant for:
• Restaurants
• Steakhouses
• Professional charcoal grills
• Caterers
• Kamado BBQs
• High-temperature grilling
• Extended cooking sessions
For professional kitchens and serious home BBQ cooks, it provides a specialist alternative to everyday lumpwood.
Lumpwood Charcoal Delivered in Somerset
For a quick family BBQ, lumpwood charcoal may be all you need.
It consists of natural pieces of carbonised wood and lights relatively quickly, making it useful for direct grilling.
Consider lumpwood for:
• Burgers
• Sausages
• Chicken
• Kebabs
• Fish
• Vegetables
For longer sessions, move towards a fuel more suited to the additional cooking time.
BBQ Briquettes for Longer Cooks
Briquettes offer a more uniform fuel format and can be useful when arranging charcoal for an extended session.
Armstrong Country Store supplies:
• Charcoal Briquettes
• Marabu Hexagonal Briquettes
Keeping both lumpwood and briquettes available gives regular outdoor cooks flexibility between quick grilling and longer cooking.
Smoking Chips & Smoking Chunks Somerset
If you're smoking food, choose your heat source and smoking wood separately.
Armstrong Country Store's wider smoking range includes products using woods such as:
• Apple
• Oak
• Hickory
• Cherry
• Whiskey
Suitable smoking chips and chunks can be introduced alongside charcoal in compatible smokers and BBQs.
Smoking Chips or Chunks?
The main difference is their size and how quickly they release smoke.
Smoking chips are smaller and release smoke relatively quickly.
They can be useful during shorter smoking sessions.
Smoking chunks are larger and release smoke more gradually.
Consider chunks for:
• Brisket
• Pork shoulder
• Ribs
• Larger joints
• Longer low-and-slow sessions
If you regularly smoke food, suitable chunks are worth keeping alongside your charcoal.
Charcoal for Smokers & Low-and-Slow BBQ
A long smoker session needs more fuel planning than a quick BBQ.
For brisket, ribs, pulled pork and similar cooks, consider:
• Marabu Charcoal
• Charcoal Briquettes
• Marabu Hexagonal Briquettes
• Suitable dense hardwood charcoal
Suitable smoking chunks can then be introduced during the cook.
A simple approach is:
Charcoal provides the heat.
Smoking wood provides additional smoke.
This lets you control each element separately.
Kamado Charcoal Somerset
Kamado BBQs can be used for everything from long low-temperature cooking to hotter direct grilling.
Premium hardwood options include:
• Marabu Charcoal
• White Quebracho Charcoal
• Oak Charcoal
• Oak & Hornbeam Charcoal
Suitable smoking chunks can also be introduced during longer sessions.
Always follow the fuel and operating recommendations supplied by your particular kamado manufacturer.

• BBQ businesses
• Professional kitchens

Consider:
• Grill type
• Menu
• Required temperature
• Number of covers
• Length of service
• Frequency of charcoal use
• Seasonal demand
• Storage space
• Normal weekly consumption
Once you've established which charcoal works with your equipment, ordering around realistic consumption makes stock easier to manage.

BBQ Charcoal for Bridgwater & Central Somerset

BBQ Charcoal for Wells, Glastonbury & Street

Charcoal for the Somerset Coast
Somerset's coastal areas have a substantial tourism and holiday accommodation market.
Hotels, pubs, restaurants, campsites, caravan parks and self-catering properties can all create seasonal demand for BBQ fuel.
If you're a frequent user, consider:
• Normal weekly consumption

• Grill type
• Menu

Selected charcoal products are available in larger quantities for customers who use fuel regularly.

For regular users, keeping an appropriate supply stored somewhere dry makes future cooking easier to organise.
Charcoal for Holiday Cottages & Self-Catering Accommodation
Somerset has a substantial holiday accommodation market.
Where suitable BBQ facilities are provided, Birch or lumpwood can be practical choices for straightforward guest cooking.
Property owners should provide clear instructions about where BBQ equipment may be used.
Visitors bringing their own BBQ, smoker or kamado should check the property's rules before use.
Never use charcoal-burning equipment indoors or in another enclosed space.
BBQ Charcoal for Campsites & Caravan Holidays
Somerset has numerous campsites, caravan parks and outdoor accommodation businesses.
Before lighting a charcoal BBQ, check the site's current rules.
Where charcoal cooking is permitted:
• Use suitable outdoor equipment

• Follow site fire-safety requirements
• Allow used charcoal to cool fully
• Dispose of ash correctly
Never use a charcoal BBQ inside a tent, caravan, motorhome or awning.
Charcoal for Festivals & Outdoor Events
Somerset has a strong outdoor events and festival market.
For caterers and mobile food businesses using charcoal at events, fuel planning should be treated as part of service preparation.
Consider:
• Expected customer numbers
• Menu
• Grill capacity
• Service duration
• Normal charcoal consumption
• Transport
• Dry storage
• Backup fuel
If you've already found a charcoal that works with your equipment, an event isn't the ideal time to change fuel unnecessarily.
Charcoal for Weddings & Outdoor Catering
Somerset's country houses, barns, hotels and rural venues create a substantial weddings and events market.
If you're cooking over charcoal for a wedding or private event, calculate fuel requirements before service begins.
Consider:
• Guest numbers
• Menu
• Cooking equipment
• Service length
• Expected charcoal consumption
• Backup fuel
Make sure you have enough of the charcoal you already know works with your grill.
