We are delighted to bring back Caradoc Charcoal, a long established British Charcoal Brand, under new ownership. Alistair and Ruth, the new Caradoc owners, are based in West Sussex and works with trees coppiced from local woodlands to make superb charcoal. The team at the new Caradoc have a long history of making exceptional charcoal and it is incredibly satisfying that they chose to keep the brand alive and invest heavily in further growing our punchy British charcoal industry.  Welcome back Caradoc - it’s great to have you back and cooking so good!

    Mixed Charcoal

    Caradoc Charcoal
    This superb mixed species, hardwood charcoal just gets on with the job with no fuss or fanfare. A proper workhorse charcoal that is hand made and hand sorted so only the medium and larger chunks make it into the bag - expect a wide mixture of sizes which allow air to flow freely through which is ideal for all types of cooks.. Lights easily (barely needs a starter), spreads beautifully, loves to get hot but equally brilliant with all types of barbecue from open beds to a Kamado for low and slow. Lasts an age with very little ash residue - could there be a better mixed species charcoal?

  • Chestnut Charcoal

    Chestnut Charcoal

    Caradoc Charcoal
    Chestnut, a relatively uncommon single species, is an excellent British charcoal. It has its own personality on the grill, and lights faster than very dense species like oak or birch, but does not burn as quickly as alder or ash. It produces a lively, even heat that's easy to manage to a good all-rounder and offers solid longevity without feeling sluggish to get going. It reacts well to air flow, making it particularly suitable for kamados and kettles. It burns with very little smoke once fully lit, leaving minimal ash so just another great English charcoal for you to enjoy!
