"Now, I’m not going to lie, I was a little sceptical to begin with as for me it seemed expensive as an initial outlay for the business. Having said that, we spent a good few hours with a lovely group of people understanding and being shown how it all works and I came away from this experience wanting one the next day! It is the most incredible bit of kit and it has changed my whole mindset of BBQing."

"With charcoal orders coming in thick and fast we are reloading both Exeter charcoal retorts ready for the next double batch of Hampshire lumpwood charcoalRemember by buying local you are supporting your local economy and woodlands."
