Lumpwood charcoal for restaurants and serious home cooks

Lumpwood is wood that has been carbonised whole, with nothing added. Ours comes in three species, each single-species per bag, so you know exactly what's in the fire:

  • Silver Birch: fast to light (10–15 minutes in a chimney), up to 700°C, the everyday cook.
  • Oak: denser, up to 800°C, built for harder sears and longer cooks.
  • Spanish Holm Oak: dense holm oak from Badajoz, 4–6 hours on a single load, used in Josper, asado and robata kitchens.

For long cooks, light lumpwood together with HazelHex briquettes: the briquettes hold steady heat, and the lumpwood adds sear and wood flavour. Buying for a kitchen? See Hospitality or wholesale pallets.

Which lumpwood should I buy?

Birch for quick cooks and kettles, oak for steak and longer sessions, holm oak for restaurant grills and the longest burn.

How long does lumpwood burn?

Birch 3–4 hours and oak 4 hours in an open grill, on a single load. Both run up to 8 hours in a closed kamado on low airflow.

Is it restaurant grade?

It's the same charcoal we supply to UK restaurant kitchens. Read what "restaurant grade" actually means.
