Customer photo review of Original Thai-Style Charcoal

I’m a stove princess with grill dreams, but I couldn’t commit to a huge grill unit. I’ve been seeing Thaan charcoal being used at Snow Peak events, and when Thaan announced they were coming out with a mini grill, I was sold. So easy to use, so fun, it smelled great cooking, and it was a piece of cake to tear down. It gives me tabletop KBBQ grill communal eating vibes with great quality charcoal.

Used Thaan’s charcoal for a pop up dinner my business did, and it had a great cook temp and flavor. Held their heat for quite a lot longer than the classic charcoal we’ve used. Looking forward to using it more.

love this stuff. i run a popup, Sidekicks, in charleston, south carolina and use it every time. it’s pop up revolving around charcoal grilling. this is the only stuff i’ll use.

Great clean burns every session and multiple uses. I love these and will continue to buy.

Fast Shipping!

Can’t say how good it is yet, Too Damn Cold 🥶 outside 🤭. Shipping was fast 💨 and arrived perfect 👌 🫡

I really enjoy using Thanh Charcoal for my outdoor cooking and have been using the product for over 5 years. My last cooking experience was to use this product for smash burgers. My best experience this past year was to prepare Thanksgiving Turkey for 20 people. It was outstanding. The Turkey was prepared perfectly.

Great charcoal !! I get great burn time especially with the Thaan Grill!!

It arrived, box was damaged and taped up by UPS. I have not had a chance to use it yet. The high hasn’t been above 14 above zero. The low is in the negatives at night. Need a couple of months before I put into use.

The product is amazing. However, it is why the charcoal isn’t really for us. We are a barbecue joint. The charcoal is not ideal for our gravity smoker. In terms of shape and smoke.

Solid burntime, definitely going to keep this brand around!

Couldnt imagine using any other charcoal!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!
