Maxxx elevates the BBQ briquet to a bigger, better fuel. Maxxx briquets contain no fillers, chemicals, or toxic mystery ingredients that produce bitter smoke and mountains of ash. So what is in them. The same incredibly dense hardwood we use to make our lump charcoal - plus a pinch of plant-derived starch (that is it - Yes, really). We compress it into the biggest pillow briquette on the market for the longest burn time on the market. Features: 100% natural ingredients: pure quebracho hardwood and a pinch of vegetable starch NO chemicals or toxic ingredients - borax, nitrates etc. - 2x the size of typical briquets for maximum performance Taste-enhancing aroma and flavor - incredibly long, hot burn Extremely low ash production - won't spark, snap or pop
