I have been thinking about this. I'll be out shopping tomorrow morning an will see if I can pick up a shit ton (industry technical standard) of charcoal. I have an electric smoker and a wood/charcoal offset smoker. I've got enough wood chips to smoke the meat I have.

Saw a guy at Walmart the other day that had a grocery cart full of Charcoal.

Glad I got a 1/4 cord of Hickory this past summer for my smoker

Well charcoal has other uses besides cooking. Such as water purification.

Then there's the UV way for water.

Wouldn?t that have to be pure charcoal though? I thought most grilling charcoal is impregnated with chemicals to help it light more quickly and burn more efficiently.

Pure charcoal is sold as "lump charcoal" or "natural charcoal"

Some brickettes are compressed charcoal dust, some have chemicals all will have a binding agent.

Charcoal is also useful medicinally

Yes, well aware of charcoal?s uses. My concern is some moron trying to purify water with what is essentially lighter fluid and grilling charcoal.
