Any year round grill kings/Qer's? (gas grill, undercooked, freezing, garden)

Where do you buy your charcoal year round?

I find it hard to locate in the winter months, unless it's online.

We grill year-round in all weather-conditions, but we have a Weber gas grill. During the winter I've seen charcoal at a local garden and feed shop, though. Where are you located? If you give a general location people might be able to recommend local stores or chains in your area.

Good point,

I'm in Columbus,Ohio.

I still will order online but I just wanted more options.

Thanks.

I have an awesome dual gas/charcoal grill. One side gas, one side charcoal.

I just started grilling again this week, now it's gotten above freezing during the day.

However, I seem to find that in colder times, that I usually end up charring the outside and leaving the inside a bit more raw. Last night I had to throw the buffalo medallions back on the grill as they were way undercooked on the inside.

Living in Texas, I can't imagine having trouble finding fuel for the grill.. Everyplace carries charcoal year round and it's pricey along with starter fluid. We have an abundance of Mesquite and Oak trees in Texas. We usually have a supply of logs (firewood) around. Propane tank refills are available most big stores also. For those that prefer gas grills...

I use the Weber year-round (even when it rains) and have no problem finding charcoal, but I mainly use oak from my acreage in Riverside County. Just a little bit of (expensive) charcoal to help get the oak going.

I use "cowboy" charcoal (not briquettes) and both Ace hardware and Trader Joes's has them year round.

Home Depot usually has it if no one else does. I try and stick with hardwood charcoal, I read somewhere that briquettes are made out of compressed coal dust. No thanks.

We buy it at Walmart year round here. Or any grocery store.

I bet you know when the cheapest time of the yr to buy it is, so buy enough for a yr. You could also just stock up on the last sale day before winter, guess'n labor day?
