Marabu is a unique type of charcoal. Sourced from Cuba, this wood is considered an invasive plant locally, making it a sustainable fuel choice. Compared to other BestCharcoal varieties, Marabu has a smaller size and different structure. Despite its size, it burns longer than most charcoal types. While it takes a few minutes to light, it rewards you with a stable temperature and extended burn time. It gives off a subtle smoky aroma that many find pleasantly aromatic. In short, Marabu is one of the best charcoal options for low & slow sessions on your Kamado or kettle BBQ.
