Burnt spices tastes acrid and bitter when it’s on food. This would be no different.

The seasoning may or may not work but the onions are COMPLETELY useless

That's a very broad statement. Have you ever had anything blackened?

I agree all those spices are going to be burned up when she lights the coals before the meats ever hit the grill, she's just wasting money. If the coals were seasoned at the same time the meat hits the grate, I could imagine it might lend some extra flavor, in the way wood chip smoke does.

Food that is blackened isn't burnt; it's simply coated in a special spice blend that takes on a very dark brown, almost black color when cooked in a skillet, on a grill or in an oven. Blackened food almost always means blackened meat, chicken or seafood, including fish and shellfish like shrimp

I used herb infused lighter fluid and light the coals with a burning twig if thyme

Yes, sometimes sarcasm doesn't translate well in typed communication.

This is dumb A.F. and if she really cares about the flavor the smoke imparts on her food she needs to ditch the lighter fluid and spend $15 on a chimney.

Kingsford is already ahead of the game.






This always seemed like the dumbest thing ever to me.

Yep. I don’t use charcoal anymore. Post oak for me for most of my cooks.

I guess you're getting the dv's because of the idea of seasoning the charcoal but I thought it was funny as hell.

Am I the only one who throws onion skins and corn cobs in the pit?

I'll tell you this, the worst flavored wood chips ever are the tobasco barrel chips.

When burning, the vinegar smell is the onky thing that comes out.
