Some Of Our Recent Reviews
Why Buy Charcoal from Slate Hill?
We get through more than 100,000 tonnes of charcoal a year in the UK, around 90% of this is imported from abroad. A lot of the BBQ charcoal in our shops comes from countries such as Paraguay, Nigeria and Indonesia where regulation is lacking and deforestation and pollution are major problems.
In Contrast, UK made BBQ lumpwood charcoal comes from sustainably managed woodlands, from trees that will grow again or be re-planted. British hardwoods produce lumpwood charcoal that is less dense and with a much higher carbon content (up to 95%) than the imported equivalent. This means it will light easily (without the need for lighter fluid or other chemicals) and produce a clean even heat to cook on more quickly, a great reason to buy charcoal produced here in the UK.
Here at Slate Hill we produce and ship the very best restaurant quality lumpwood charcoal UK wide.
