What is Binchotan charcoal and how is it different from regular lump charcoal?
Binchotan is a type of ultra-dense hardwood charcoal that produces far infrared heat, which helps seal in juices and enhance texture in grilled foods. Unlike standard lump charcoal, it burns without smoke or visible flame and can reach temperatures above 1,200°F.
Is this charcoal reusable?
Yes! Jealous Devil Onyx Binchotan can be extinguished with water, dried, and reused multiple times without losing structure or heat performance. This makes it an excellent value over time.
Does it produce any smoke or odor?
No. One of the hallmarks of Binchotan charcoal is its ability to burn cleanly without smoke, odor, or flames—ideal for precision cooking and flavor purity.
How do I light Onyx Binchotan charcoal?
Because of its density, Onyx requires a high-heat starter or chimney and patience to ignite properly. Review the Lighting Instructions before use to ensure you have the right tools and technique. This charcoal is best suited for experienced grillers.
What types of cooking is this best suited for?
Onyx Binchotan is perfect for high-heat grilling, Japanese yakitori, delicate proteins like seafood, and any application where clean, controlled heat is essential. It's also great for chefs who want to preserve flavor integrity without added smoke.
Can I use this charcoal in a regular charcoal grill or smoker?
Yes, but it performs best in ceramic kamado grills, Japanese konro grills, or other enclosed cooking systems that can handle high heat and benefit from precision control. It's not intended for quick backyard grilling with lighter fluid.

With over 35 years of smoking experience, we started DDR BBQ Supply with a simple goal: to help others cook better barbecue. We've spent decades learning what works and what doesn't, and we apply that knowledge to every product we carry. From high-performance grills and smokers to carefully selected rubs, sauces, and tools, everything we offer is something we believe in and use ourselves. We don’t believe in cutting corners or selling gear we wouldn’t rely on during our own backyard cooks and when we compete in BBQ competitions.
