What makes Max XL Briquettes different from regular briquettes?
Each Max XL briquette is nearly double the size of traditional briquettes, which results in longer burn times, fewer refuels, and more consistent temperatures throughout your cook.
Can I use these in a gravity-fed smoker?
Yes. Their uniform size, extended burn time, and low ash production make them ideal for gravity-fed smokers.
Are there additives or chemicals in this charcoal?
No. These briquettes are made from 100% pure hardwood charcoal with zero fillers, chemicals, or binders.
Do they work for high-heat searing?
Yes. The dense construction allows them to reach and maintain high temperatures, making them excellent for searing steaks and reverse-seared meats.
How should I store Max XL Briquettes?
Store in a cool, dry location away from moisture to preserve ignition reliability and overall performance.

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.
