    Charcoal

    deerstalkert as above post advised me on the willow for charcoal. Trust his advice and trust me when I say the results of using charcoal have been VERY good. Easy to find along wet areas and peels easy. You would not be disappointed.

    Charcoal

    That was a pretty loaded question I asked. After thinking about all the possibilities I guess I will just say that probably the best answer will be when I have venison on the table from my muzzleloader. Thanks

    Making Willow Charcoal

    I have seen that video. Good one. Like I said in original posting, I can't have an open flame in MT at this time. Was wondering how a grill with barbecue briquettes would work. Thanks

    Making Willow Charcoal

    Montana now has a no open flame allowed because of fire situation in the state. My willow is cut and in a 1 gal. paint can with hole in lid. Can I use charcoal barbecue briquettes rather than wood for the heat source? Charcoal too hot, not hot enough? Thanks in advance
