Not that it's not better, it sure does burn a LOT hotter and usually start better in a chimney, but it's not perfect either.

It's not perfect no. But it imparts zero flavor when smoking, something you can't say about briquettes.

Briquettes are great for grilling. Using them in a smoker is just...eeeewwww....
