★★★★★ Dtomo45 August 25, 2026
Was a great starter! Was a great starter kit for my gravity series! I did find another lump charcoal that I like more to use regularly that has a more smoky taste and flavor to it but overall it wasn’t bad using this

Premium Quality Lump Charcoal That Always Delivers. I’ve been using Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal for years and it continues to be one of my go to choices. I love the quality of the charcoal and the clean smoke it provides. The large, quality lumps give you great heat control and a long lasting burn.
It works just as well for low n’ slow smoking as it does for high heat grilling. Whether I’m cooking brisket, ribs, chicken or throwing steaks over hot lump charcoal, this charcoal consistently delivers.
The quality, clean burn and versatility make Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal a regular part of my BBQ fuel rotation. Highly recommend it for anyone who takes their grilling and smoking seriously.
★★★★★ Bromley April 12, 2026 · Atlanta, Georgia
Long lasting Fuel. Never run out on fuel for the summer. I enjoy using MasterBuilt lump charcoal, it last longer than normal coal and doesn’t have a taste to it. I can’t get enough of this lump charcoal from MasterBuilt.
★★★★★ bigdogmom April 12, 2026 · Lacey WA
Bring the heat! Very impressed with the Masterbuilt lump charcoal. Great for getting a very hot fire going for searing meat and then a steady, even heat for cooking. Meat is expensive. Don't penny pinch on the fuel--it does make a difference!
★★★★★ tomtheguitarguy November 5, 2025 · SoCal
Nice Big Lumps. Having used Royal, Cowboy and other lump charcoal, I really like the Masterbuilt Lump... Nice big pieces that burn long and even... Price is good as well!

Charcoal That Doesn’t Quit—Masterbuilt’s 2-Pack Po. 🔥 Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal Bundle – 2 Pack: Pure Firepower for Flavor Lovers
When it comes to authentic, bold barbecue flavor, nothing beats lump charcoal—and Masterbuilt’s 2 Pack Bundle delivers the goods. I’ve used it across multiple cooks, and it’s now my go-to fuel for grilling and smoking.
🌳 All-Natural Hardwood Goodness
This charcoal is made from 100% premium hardwood, which means no fillers, no chemicals—just clean-burning fuel that imparts rich, smoky flavor. Whether I’m firing up ribs, burgers, or brisket, the taste is noticeably better than briquettes.
⚡ Fast Lighting, Long Burn
It lights quickly and gets hot fast, which is perfect for spontaneous grilling sessions. Once lit, it maintains a steady burn for hours, making it ideal for low-and-slow smoking or high-heat searing. I’ve had consistent results every time.
🪵 Chunk Size That Makes Sense
The pieces are well-sized—not too small, not oversized—and they burn evenly. No excessive sparking or crumbling, which makes managing the fire easier and safer.
🧼 Clean Burn, Minimal Ash
One of the best parts? Minimal ash. Cleanup is a breeze, and the airflow in my Gravity Series grill stays unobstructed throughout the cook. That means better temperature control and less mess.
🏆 Final Verdict
The Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal Bundle is a must-have for anyone serious about flavor and performance. It’s clean, consistent, and delivers that signature wood-fired
★★★★★ Mikebbq November 5, 2025 · Oakley, CA
As advertised. Perfect to use on my Gravity grill! Not overly smoky, adds good flavor. Pops a little more than I’d like but it’s solid
★★★★★ Cooking with Travis November 5, 2025 · Simpsonville Ky
Charcoal is king. Great heat and good burn time. Good for smoking but exceptional for grilling and searing steaks to get that restaurant quality that you crave.
★★★★★ DBDB November 5, 2025 · Oregon City, OR
Great Fuel. The Masterbuilt Charcoal is a great fuel source. Always burns clean. Worth it!
★★★★★ nbohm September 22, 2025 · Indiana
Burns longer than other brands. Bought with the grill when I purchased the 1150 grill. I have used other brands and can say the Masterbuilt charcoal is a better quality than other cheaper brands.
★★★★★ Peterpilot September 18, 2025 · Wilmington, NC
Great fuel with great flavor. These lumps burn smooth and even and provide that perfect smoke flavor. The fire starter blocks make getting my gravity grill going super easy.
★★★★★ Mr. Steak September 17, 2025 · Oregon
The BEST charcoal. This stuff is the Best!! I was a little aprehensive3 because it wasn't the typical charcoal looking brackets but I am so HAPPY I tried it, easy starting and comes up to temp quickly and lasts a long time, also no weird smell or taste like the other brands, get some you'll be a happy camper.
★★★★★ Diceman67 September 17, 2025 · corpus christi, TX
Fred;s fuel. Over time I've used the Masterbuilt lumps and starters have no issues, they both have worked great. My only issues is like all others by the time you get the lumps you have alot of smaller pieces due to shipping. But that's with every other lump product out there.
★★★★★ Sauce September 17, 2025 · Charlotte, NC
Best Fuel. I also use wood splits a lot but hands down as a standalone or combo wit the wood this gets you the best burn without adding bad flavor.

★★★★★ MrG12 September 17, 2025 · Dallas
Excellent Charcoal! This charcoal is perfect for MB grills and pits! Lights quick and gives a long and consistent burn! Good flavor profile as well. Works good when combined with wood chunks.
★★★★★ Dolemite52 September 17, 2025 · Tucson, Arizona
Too Much Powder! I purchased the Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal and was highly disappointed. For the price that I paid, I got literally a half of a bag full of powder. When I poured the bag out into my Charcoal bin for airtight sealing until use, I was shocked and angry. Then when I used it, I expected some smoked flavor. I was extremely disappointed with that as well. I recommend skipping this product and purchase another brand of lump charcoal.
★★★★★ JandS September 7, 2025 · MI
Great Combo pack. Bought a couple of these combo pack and love how easy the starters light. Theses are awesome

★★★★★ DaByrdman33 September 5, 2025 · Stafford, VA
Random Logs in the Bag. I used the Masterbuilt lump charcoal in my Gravity Series 600 and it worked great. The only drawback was the presence of extremely large pieces of charcoal in the bag. Some were over 4 inches long and as much as 1.5 inches in diameter.
★★★★★ ross2016 September 4, 2025 · West Lafayette, IN
Clean, Consistent, and Long-Lasting Charcoal. The Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal has quickly become my go-to fuel for grilling and smoking. The pieces are a good size, burn evenly, and produce a steady, reliable heat that makes temperature control much easier. Compared to standard briquettes, it lights faster, lasts longer, and gives food that authentic smoky flavor without excessive ash.
One thing I really like is how clean it burns—there’s less dust and waste left behind, which makes cleanup simpler and helps my grill or smoker stay in better condition. It pairs perfectly with Masterbuilt grills and smokers, but I’ve also used it in other charcoal cookers with great results.
Overall: High-quality lump charcoal that delivers excellent performance and flavor. If you want consistent heat and a cleaner burn, Masterbuilt’s lump charcoal is definitely worth keeping on hand.
★★★★★ LABear August 30, 2025 · pa
Love this charcoal. have used this for what seems like forever. It is the best around, lights quick, stays lit, gives off great heat

Quality lump. I was happy with the fuel. Burned well and didn't have any chunks of random stuff in it. Wish it was more readily available in my local stores.
★★★★★ Degarcia1 August 29, 2025 · Dallas, TX
Burns Clean. This fuel burns clean and true, giving me the best. Long cooks and high temperature cooks.
★★★★★ Dibo August 29, 2025 · Irwin, PA
Even Burn. I like how this lump charcoal burns. It's a nice even slow burn that cooks all my steaks, ribs, wings, pizza just right. It gives all my food a great taste.
★★★★★ Sam. June 24, 2025
Inconsistent - Either Decent or Un-lightable. I bought two bags on a deal. The MB grill works great, and the first bag worked pretty well (except for a little sparking). The second bag was the complete opposite. Half of the pieces won't light because they're massive (basically half a bag of quarter of a log size pieces, not even close to typical lump size, even for bigger lump). I've tried lighting with smaller pieces first over multiple cooks and still they don't light. I won't be buying another bag of this from MB.
★★★★★ Amateur Hour Fish June 17, 2025 · Pennsylvania
Great stuff!!! So far no complaints at all with either the charcoal or starters. Lights up no problems and burns great!
★★★★★ RandomVlogTime May 19, 2025 · Texas

★★★★★ Dirty Sox May 19, 2025 · Bowie, Md
Great taste, slow burn. Almost always use regular briquettes until I tried these, easier start up, cleaner burn. Try it, just wish I didn’t have to order it I usually grab the quick start package.

Good coal. This Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal is fantastic! It lights up easily and burns really hot and clean, which is perfect for getting a great sear on steaks or for long, slow cooks. I've noticed a wonderful smoky flavor in my food when I use it. It produces less ash than other charcoals I've tried, making cleanup a breeze. If you want high quality charcoal for your grilling, I definitely recommend giving this Masterbuilt brand a try!
★★★★★ Daddy April 28, 2025 · Texas
lump and starters. I like Masterbuilt lump charcoal for its consistency bag to bag and its lighter smoke for fowl, pork and beef. Smoked flavor but no smoky like a camp fire...
FIre starters light easily and get the charcoal going quickly.
★★★★★ mbrevard April 24, 2025 · North Carolina
Great Flavor. I have used the Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal numerous times. It burns clean and adds great flavor.
★★★★★ GrillDr. April 24, 2025 · Fort Worth, TX
Burns hot! Works great. I mostly use it for shorter cooks like steaks, burgers, and chicken. But I tend to smother it out and get multiple uses out of one chimney so it does last at least more than one cook. Does spark like crazy when you’re lightning it in your chimney, careful in small areas
★★★★★ Punisher45 April 23, 2025 · Las Cruces NM
Lumps are Great. Briquets, or lump charcoal? Little briquets pile up easy for lighting, but lump charcoal has a nice twist of burn speed, and unique heat in larger pieces. I use both, but lump works really nice for longer fires and donation of flavors.
★★★★★ Philli64 April 23, 2025 · West Lafayette, IN
Clean Burn, Great Flavor. Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal has quickly become my go-to fuel for grilling and smoking. It lights up easily, burns hot, and gives off a clean, natural smoke that really enhances the flavor of whatever I’m cooking. I love that it’s made from hardwood with no fillers or chemicals — just pure charcoal. It produces very little ash, which makes cleanup a breeze, and the chunks are a good size, not a bag full of dust like some other brands. Whether I’m searing steaks or doing a long smoke, this charcoal performs every time. Definitely a high-quality option for charcoal lovers.
★★★★★ SCreech April 23, 2025 · Greenville, SC
Great lump and starters. While I’m still waiting on my Gravity XT weeks after ordering, I have burned some of the lump and see the firestarters in my pizza oven. Great consistency and easy to get rolling. Excited to see how it will work in the XT.
★★★★★ Bill22 April 23, 2025 · Iowa
Great combo. I got this to try to use less store bought charcoal for longer cooks and the fire starter also works excellent.

★★★★★ GrillDr. January 20, 2025 · Fort Worth, Texas
Burns Hot and Fast. I like the lump charcoal it burns hot and lights up quickly. It does tend to spark quite a bit so careful if you’re too close to your chimney. Some pieces were too big so I had trouble lighting them, I had to try and break them up which was kinda a hassle. Some of the starters also wouldn’t light so I’m not sure if I got a bad batch but the ones that did work were great
★★★★★ lgriffin357 January 19, 2025 · Kosciusko, MS
Great fuel with the Masterbiilt Gravity Series Gri. I purchased this fuel when I purchased my grill. This is the only fuel that I would recommend or use with my Masterbuilt Gravity Series Grill. This is great stuff.
★★★★★ GeeZee January 19, 2025 · Cotati, CA
Lump is just as good as charcoal. Purchased this lump fuel and wanted to try it as I use to only use charcoal and gas. The lump fuel is great, I buy more lump fuel than I do charcoal now.

Lump is the way. Love the lump charcoal for gravity series. Can't go wrong
★★★★★ Heavy smoker January 18, 2025 · Kalispell, MT
High quality charcoal. Masterbuilt lump charcoal is very high-quality, clean, burning and feeds well in the Masterbuilt gravity series smokers. The price is very competitive with great savings available on website with specials and discounts for multiple bag purchases with free shipping. The chunks are more uniform than some of the other brands which are just a lot of very small chunks that are often too small to use. Grill temperatures are very stable using Masterbuilt brand chunk charcoal.
★★★★★ tomtheguitarguy January 18, 2025 · SoCal

Great charcoal, 10 out of 10. This is one of the better briquettes I’ve used, maintains heat well, doesn’t burn up too fast, very pleased so far
★★★★★ Jayjay September 4, 2024 · Boston, MA
Great value, but really, quality is also great. I recently got the Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal Bundle, and I’ve got to say, it’s made a noticeable difference in my grilling game. The quality of this charcoal is fantastic—big, solid pieces that light up quickly and burn evenly. What I appreciate most is the pure, natural hardwood flavor it adds to whatever I’m grilling or smoking. I will be very honest; I think I get, in average, bigger pieces in Masterbuilt Lump Charcoal than Fogo premium.
Another plus is how long it burns. I’ve found that a single load lasts longer than the other brands I’ve tried, which means fewer refills and more time actually enjoying the cookout with friends and family. I also noticed less ash, which makes cleanup a breeze.
I bought the bundle because it’s a great value, and I’m glad I did. It’s more than enough to keep my smoker going for several weekends of grilling.
★★★★★ Sir mark September 3, 2024 · Utah
Great. I love the coals and fire starter,at first it didn't start but second time did.
★★★★★ SIBLY September 3, 2024 · Albuquerque, NM
A winning product deserves a winning product. I purchased a two pack of the Masterbuilt lump charcoal for my son-in-law as a gift for Father’s Day as I convinced him to purchase a Masterbuilt gravity series 1050 smoker for his own home. The smoker and lump charcoal are a perfect match. He was so anxious to try it out so we purchased a 6-pound rump roast to try it out. It was a match made in smoker heaven! He is also considering purchasing the rotisserie accessory.

Absolutely perfect!!! I even cut these in half, and they still work like a charm. I won't buy anything else. Period!

Best charcoal for Masterbuilt gravity feed smokers. This is the most consistent, uniform size , clean burning, fast easy lighting, even burning, best feeding charcoal I've used for my Masterbuilt 800. Theres slways a bundle deal available which makes it the most affordable charcoal available. It imparts the best flavors on any meat I cook.

Great charcoal! This is my new go to charcoal. It burns clean and lasts long. And the fire starters always get it going every time.
★★★★★ Derrty Sancho February 11, 2024 · Austin Texas
Best Charcoal. I love using this Charcoal. ITT last so much longer than buy from the grocery store. Some of the store charcoal has chemicals and gives a taste that I have to hide with a piece of cherry or mesquite when you to smoke for long. But when I use this charcoal the flavor from it alone is perfect.
★★★★★ Jmangini19 February 11, 2024 · Columbus, OH
Better than the competitor hands down. I don’t know what they do to make it better but it seems to be designed to work with the gravity series. Other not to mention brands don’t last as long and don’t have as long a shelf life inside the chamber. Try these for yourself and you won’t go back to your old brand.
★★★★★ Tommytoot February 10, 2024 · Los Angeles
Great Charcoal and starters! The starters are very easy to use and are designed for the coal chamber so honestly I’ll be “stuck” using these! The charcoal is very good quality and imparted a fairly neutral flavor to the meat , which is good because it burns clean and hot!

Great Charcoal. The charcoal burned good. One bag of charcoal lasted a 9 1/2 hour smoke and there was still a good amount of charcoal left.
★★★★★ BA7768 February 9, 2024
It's Ok. The charcoal is good and does the job. I'm not sure what kind of wood it is thought since they don't specify what kind of hardwood they use. It didn't smell like oak or hickory when it was burning; those are my preferred lump. But, it did the job. I wouldn't say it burned anymore or less efficient than any other lump I've used. I would have given it a higher rating if I knew what kind of hardwood they used vs. the generic description.
★★★★★ Army Chief February 9, 2024 · Piedmont, Sd
Lasts a long time. Can do a long cook and not have to worry about running out.
★★★★★ Smoker J January 16, 2024 · California
Almost require if you're new to the series. I highly recommend getting this if you start out. I'm well past the initial first bags of charcoal and bought another eight from Home Depot. Still on the first box of lighters. Very helpful to learn the new grill.
