Sumi Bincho-tan works perfectly in our Konro grills but can also be used in place of regular charcoal in any BBQ grill. It is made from dense hardwoods, honouring the traditional, centuries old production methods . It is favoured by cooks around the world since it burns at a higher temperature and for longer periods of time than ordinary charcoal and doesnt produce any unpleasant odours, making it ideal for sealing in natural flavours.
