Sausages turned great but I don’t love charcoal yet.
I rarely have problems with Kingsford. After 30 minutes in my chimney started, my coals are ready to COOK..!
And don't forget the wood chips..!
tbf, I cannot recall using Royal Oak and I do not know anyone who does.
As a digression, at the Beach several years back, I met a guy (from WVA, as I recall) who worked at a Kingsford manufacturing plant and he told me that it was tough to get the "K" on the briquets. Kingsford is good and #1 for many reasons. imo.
