Activated Charcoal Water/air filters, detox, toothpaste 500-1500 m²/g No

Charcoal fuel (lump hardwood or briquettes) burns 700-1000°F for searing steaks, smoking brisket, or indirect roasting. Choose lump for flavor/purity, briquettes for consistency/long burns in grills, offsets, or kamados.

Activated charcoal undergoes steam/chemical activation creating microscopic pores for trapping impurities—used in medical overdoses, aquarium filters, or beauty products. Never cook with it; lacks combustion energy and poses health risks from processing chemicals. For pellets, use 100% hardwood BBQ pellets (hickory, oak, mesquite) matching charcoal flavor profiles without binders.
