Charcoal Blend Review

This review comes from Gareth Morgan at Hogs Heaven BBQ's who very kindly trialled a bag of my latest batch that contains London Plane (Platanus hispanica). This is the tree with mottled flaky bark that is seen lining many of the streets in London.

Its an amazing tree as its pollution tolerant, responsible for absorbing pollution in our nations capital.
