🔥 What a weekend at Smoke on the Shores! 🔥

Huge shoutout to Jason and the entire crew for putting on an unforgettable 10th Anniversary event — over 180 teams bringing the heat, the flavor, and the fire all weekend long.

And our African Charcoal Company family SHOWED UP. 💪🔥

🏆 Calls for:
👉 MYKES BBQ
👉 PUDDLEDUCK
👉 KILLER B’s

That’s what happens when passion meets performance and the best fuel on the planet 🌍🔥

Beyond the trophies and scores, what stands out most is the community we’re building — a group of pitmasters, friends, and fire-starters who genuinely love what they do and support each other every step of the way.

Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. This is just the beginning.

🔥 2026 Season is Here! 🔥

The fire is lit and we couldn’t be more excited to officially announce the African Charcoal Company 2026 Competition Teams.

We’re incredibly proud to partner with an amazing group of pitmasters, competitors, and ambassadors who share our passion for great barbecue and our belief that African Charcoal is the best charcoal on the planet — and the best charcoal for the planet. 🌍🔥

From backyard battles to the biggest stages in barbecue, these teams represent craftsmanship, consistency, and the relentless pursuit of perfect flavor. Last season brought incredible success, including multiple category wins, Grand Championships, and a Top 10 finish at Memphis in May. And this year… we’re just getting started.

To our teams: thank you for trusting our fire. Your dedication, talent, and love for the craft inspire everything we do. We can’t wait to see the smoke roll, the trophies raised, and the incredible food that will come off your pits this season.

Let’s make 2026 one for the record books.

🔥 You bring the skill.
🔥 We’ll bring the fire.
