Features

  • Heat Beads are the finest quality compact barbecue briquettes from Australia where it is the No.1 fuel
  • Heat Beads burn in the same way as ordinary charcoal but due to their supreme efficiency, less fuel is needed. Heat Beads light easily to quickly give a sustained heat output, particularly useful for cooking roasts. Unlike some charcoal products, Heat Beads' performance is consistent
  • Perfect for use with the COBB. Vary the number of briquettes depending on what you are cooking. Typically: Steaks, Roasts etc 10-14 pieces. Bread 5-8 pieces. When smoking by using a smoking pot or soaked wood chips on the fuel you may want to use fewer pieces to give a longer smoke time, depending on the food probably 5-10 pieces
  • After cooking you may wish to extinguish the fuel by covering the inner bowl with kitchen foil. The briquettes may then be used to supplement your next COBB cookout
  • Heat Beads will give you over 3 hours of cooking when used on the Cobb with temperatures of approx 250 degrees centigrade for the first 2 hours reducing down to approx 200 degrees centigrade at 3 hours

Typical Composition

  • Fixed Carbon approx 70%
  • Ash approx 17%
  • Water approx 7%
  • Other approx 6%
  • Fines <1% at 20mm

Best charcoal for the Cobb
5
I have been using these for year in my Cobb, whilst appearing to be more expensive, their longevity in burning means they are the most cost efficient cooking charcoal available. One filling (if the briquettes are placed on edge you can get about 12 pieces in the basket) will go for about 3 hours, although heat drops off after about 2 hours. They are clean burning, and once they are burning all over and the surface has gone white with a coating of ash they do not taint the food like some charcoal does. I have a Potjie cooking pot, I light the Cobb, wait for the Heat Beads to ignite correctly, then brown off the meat and onions in the pot, then add a few more briquettes to the basket (to top up so you can get the full 2-3 hrs cook time) and then cook the Potjiekos with the lid on, result, perfect Potjiekos. Wouldn’t use anything else.
