coconut charcoal briquettes

/0 Comments/in /by

Even though lump charcoal has become one of the most popular choices amongst culinary coal burners, there is still a place for coconut charcoal briquettes. Not all charcoal briquettes are created equal. After compiling our research on all the different charcoal briquettes on the market today, we found some companies are taking an innovative approach to breathe new life into the briquette business.

I personally always keep a bag of briquettes around, and for a couple good reasons.

  • Briquettes (most) are more economical than lump charcoal
  • Briquettes come in a perfect uniform shape. Every briquette is the same size. This has its advantages.
  • Briquettes burn longer than lump charcoal
  • Briquettes do not produce as much heat as lump charcoal

Based on these characteristics above, we set out to find the charcoal briquettes that best represent these traits and compiled a list of our top picks.

This allows a couple advantages:

  1. Extra Long Burn Time – Great for long brisket or pork butt cooks in your Kettle or Kamado.
  2. Hotter Burn – Due to the very large size of the briquettes, you can get more heat out of them vs other briquettes. Size does matter. This has always been a bit of the downfall of briquettes. When you compare them to lump charcoal, you’ll notice the lumps can get very large, when most briquettes on the market are half the size of your palm. The larger the briquette, the more heat it will put out which is great for grilling. The larger size also allows longer burn times, so this is perfect for smoking in your Kamado or Kettle.Jealous Devin claims that their briquettes will produce more heat than most lump charcoals. After our testing, we can concur with their claim.

    The quality of this briquette charcoal makes me second guess even bothering with lump charcoal. It is that good.

  3. What We Like…

    • Excellent quality all-natural hardwood charcoal briquettes
    • XL Size = High Heat & Long Burns
    • Free of chemicals and additives
    • Burns longer and hotter than most competing products

    What Makes Us Angry…

    • Price
    • Ash production is slightly higher than some competitors.
    • One unique property of these briquettes is the design. Each briquette measures at about 3” X 1” X 2” and has a uniquely shaped structure with a pronounced ridge in the middle. This promotes airflow and keeps the briquettes burning uniformly for a long time. This also makes the briquettes easy to start: another advantage over most other kinds of charcoal briquettes.

      In our tests, these briquettes produced very little ash and left no undesirable tastes on the meat. The smoke is clean and creates a mild, natural smoky flavor. The minimum ash production also means no hindrance to airflow and easy cleanup.

      While this product is priced higher than market standards for other brands, the advantages justify the costs.

    • The package contains two 16.7-pound bags of briquettes, more than enough for the average cooking session.

      Kingsford is the number-one selling briquette charcoal brand in America, having delivered excellent quality over the years and maintaining a stellar reputation. The Original is one of the most used kind of briquettes and the results speak for themselves.

      While there are additives in these briquettes, they are also natural and organic. There are no chemical additives like lighter fluids. This means that your food can retain its actual taste and not be riddled with chemical fumes that taste and smell unpleasant.

      The briquettes are uniquely designed and have grooves on both surfaces. This can promote superior airflow and ensure more even, consistent burning over time. It can make it easier for you to maintain a consistent temperature with these briquettes. The grooves also make it easier to start than many other briquette charcoal products.

In Stock

Approximately 5/8″ in length

Deep reddish-brown

Kidney shaped

Dark Red Kidney Beans are dark reddish-brown with a mild flavor and a durable skin that allows them to hold their shape through cooking. Kidneys are some of the most often-used beans in kitchens, coming in as the basic standby for chili and baked beans.

These popular beans are members of the larger family of legumes, a genre of plant species used for their edible seeds and pods that boast a high nutrient density with low-maintenance production and storage. They contain high levels of protein, essential minerals and fiber while maintaining a low level of fats.

Believed to have originated in Peru, beans were spread through trade throughout South and Central America, later being introduced to Europe in the 15th century by Spanish explorers. Known as a quality, inexpensive source of protein and nutrition, they have become diet staples in many cultures and are now widely produced in Asia, Europe and North America.

We also have CALYPSO BEANS with following specification:

Our Black Calypso beans have a mild, creamy texture with an almost potato-like flavor. Here they are served with fragrant Basmati rice and sweet hunks of pineapple, making for a filling and flavorful meal.

Prep time: 20 min

Cook time: 120 min

Total time: 140 min

INGREDIENTS

Makes 6 servings

  • 1 1/2 Cups Black Calypso Beans

  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

  • 1 Onion, chopped

  • 1 Celery Rib, chopped

  • 1 Jalapeño, stemmed, seeded and chopped

  • 1 1/4 Teaspoons Kosher Sea Salt Flakes

  • 6 Cloves Garlic, minced

  • 2 Red Bell Pepper, stemmed, seeded and chopped

  • 1 Teaspoon Ground Black Peppercorns Dustless

  • 3/4 Teaspoon Ground Cumin

  • 3 Semi Select Bay Leaves

  • 2 1/4 Cups Basmati Rice

  • 5 1/4 Cups Chicken Stock

  • 3 Cups Fresh Pineapple, chopped

  • 1/2 Cup Fresh Cilantro, chopped

  • DIRECTIONS

    1. Place beans in large bowl, and cover with water. Soak overnight.
    2. Drain beans. Place beans in large pot and add fresh water to cover beans by two inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, or until tender. Remove pot from heat and let cool. Drain beans and set aside.
    3. Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat, and cook onions, celery, jalapeño, salt, garlic, red bell peppers, black pepper, cumin and bay leaves until fragrant. Add rice and stir to combine. Add chicken stock to skillet. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.
    4. Add beans and pineapple, stir well, and cook until heated through. Serve garnished with cilantro.

    5. Black beans are a small, dark variety of common beans, especially prominent in Latin American cuisine.

      Black Beans Also Available

      There are several varieties of Black Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), the most common of which is the small, rounded bean also known as “black turtle bean” because of its shiny, shell-like appearance. With a meaty cooked texture and earthy, almost mushroom-like flavor, black beans hold their shape well when cooked, adding flavor and texture to recipes ranging from dips to soups to salads to burritos.

      Black beans are a diet staple in many cultures with a history that dates back 7,000 years in Central and South America, playing an important role in the cuisines of Mexico, Brazil, Cuba, Guatemala and the Dominican Republic. Brazil’s national dish, feijoada, is a rich, long-simmered stew made from black beans and a variety of fresh and smoked cuts of pork and beef. Frijoles negros (Spanish for “black beans”) is a simple stewed bean dish prepared widely throughout Cuba, Puerto Rico and Mexico and seasoned with onion, garlic, spices and sometimes leftover cuts of pork or bacon.

      Black beans boast a high nutrient density, containing protein, fiber, potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium and vitamin B6, while maintaining a low level of fats. In addition, black beans are a good source of three anthocyanin polyphenols – delphinidin, petunidin and malvidin – antioxidant-rich plant chemicals that reside in the deep black seed coat of the bean.

The horse mackerel’s color is one of its most striking physical characteristics. It typically has a silver appearance.

However, you’ll see variations around its body. The top of its body is usually a darker gray that can appear bluish-green, while the rest is a bit paler.

This fish’s fins are also quite unique. Its first dorsal fin is tall, with seven spines. The second dorsal fin is longer than the first, and the two fins are separated by a narrow gap.

One of the Atlantic horse mackerel’s identifying characteristics is a sideline that runs the length of its body from head to tail.

This line appears silver or even white and has a high curve near the head that ends at the eye, which is quite large compared to the fish’s body.

Lifespan & Reproduction

Since the Atlantic horse mackerel has such a wide migratory range, the lifespan can vary from place to place.

For example, the oldest mackerel ever found in the southern regions was 24, while the oldest found in the north was 40, indicating the environment could affect how long a mackerel can live.

Reproduction varies for the horse mackerel based on where a school is located. You’ll find that there are stocks of Atlantic horse mackerel spawning throughout most of the year in different areas. The common trends are as follows:

  • Western northeast Atlantic stock spawns in early spring
  • North Sea stock spawns in the summer
  • Mauritania schools spawn in early to mid-winter
  • Ireland schools spawn in the summer
  • Females reach spawning age anywhere from 2-4 years old. They’ll spawn in 5-7 batches of about 140,000 eggs each in each season, and each larva will measure approximately 5 millimeters.The young will grow with other local schools of fish before moving on when they reach maturity.

    Habitat

    Although this fish gets its name from its significant presence in the Atlantic Ocean, don’t let the name mislead you. You can actually find the Atlantic horse mackerel in many of the world’s oceans and seas.

  • The Atlantic horse mackerel calls the Atlantic and Indian Oceans and the Mediterranean and Black Seas home.So don’t be surprised if you encounter this fish from the coast of Norway all the way down and around the coast of South Africa.

    Where Do Atlantic Horse Mackerel Live?

    The Atlantic horse mackerel appears all up and down the Atlantic coast. Still, despite the differing locales, the habitats are relatively similar.

  • In the winter, you’ll find schools of horse mackerel in shallow waters in the summer or at depths of up to 100-200 meters or 330-656 feet.The juvenile mackerel tend to frequent deeper waters, while the older fish swim in shallower depths.However, despite the fish’s wide distribution, most Atlantic horse mackerel catches happen in the North Sea and near Ireland.

    Food & Diet

    All species of mackerel swim in schools, which is also how they hunt their chosen meals. The Atlantic horse mackerel hunts a wide variety of creatures, including other fish, crustaceans, and small ocean creatures.

    What Do Atlantic Horse Mackerel Eat?

    Since the horse mackerel are carnivorous fish, they tend to go after shrimp, squid, smaller fish, and other crustaceans. However, small crustaceans and bony fish seem to be their most sought-after prey.

This post is all about how to cook White Rice in the Instant Pot (or any other electric pressure cooker). You can use this simple trick to decrease the time it takes to make dinner or meal prep for the future. You’re going to love it! 

Scroll to the bottom of the page for a comprehensive guide on how to cook all kinds of rice in the Instant Pot!

In case you’re new here, let me welcome you to The Foreign Fork. I’m cooking one meal from every country in the world, which means that I eat a LOT of rice. And by a lot, I mean like…. A ton.

Cooking rice on the stove is one of my least favorite things to do. It takes forever! You have to soak it and then boil it and leave it to fluff… It takes so long, and sometimes I want my meal to be ready now.

I recently acquired a pressure cooker, and it has been a lifesaver so far in terms of making dinnertime easier. We have loved making creamy macaroni and cheese, chicken marsala, and this awesome pasta with palomino sauce in the Instant Pot! So then I had an idea… Why not cook my rice in my Instant Pot?

Why You Should Cook Your White Rice in the Instant Pot

step 1 to make rice in the instant pot: add oil
Step 1: Add Oil to Instant Pot
  1. Down to a Science: Like I mentioned above, cooking rice in the Instant Pot is a gamechanger. The ratios are right every time, and you never have to worry about leaving it too long and having it burn. It’s always on the right temperature/self regulating, etc. Plus, it’s so much faster than cooking your rice on the stove!

What Ingredients Do I Need?

  1. Long Grain White Rice: This recipe works specifically for Long Grain White Rice. If you want to make a different kind of rice, make sure to check the graph below. Or check out my recipe on how to make Brown Rice in the Instant Pot.
  2. Olive Oil: I use olive oil so that the rice does not stick on the bottom of the Instant Pot. You can use butter, a different kind of oil, or nothing if you so choose.
  3. Water: Any temperature of water will work. See below on tips for using broth.

Expert Tips

    • Please note, this recipe will work in any pressure cooker. I also have a Zavor LUX Pressure Cooker, and it works in that brand as well.
    • Try using broth to cook your rice as well. The rice comes out the same texture, but it has some extra depth of flavor! Use the same liquid amounts as in the instructions.
    • Add some flavoring to your rice after it’s done cooking! Check out my Spice Cabinet to pick some good pairings

Common Mistakes when Cooking Long Grain White Rice

Below are the most common problems that people run into when cooking white rice and how to fix them:

  • Burnt rice or rice that is too hard: You didn’t add enough water. If you’re using a pressure cooker (and this method) it could also mean that you cooked your rice on HIGH instead of LOW
  • Watery rice: Your rice is undercooked. If you put the lid back on and cook for an additional minute or two, this could correct the problem.
  • Mushy rice: You added too much water to your pressure cooker! Try reducing it slightly next time.

Recipe FAQs

What Is the Ratio of Rice to Water?

When cooking long grain white rice in the Instant Pot, I use a ratio of 1:1.5. This means that for every 1 cup of rice, I add 1.5 cups of water. In fact, those are the exact measurements I normally use. If you want to double the recipe, it would be 2 cups of rice to 3 cups of water, etc.

Can I Double or Triple this Recipe?

Of course! The good thing is, doubling an Instant Pot recipe is easy. If you double the rice, make sure that you double the amount of water and vice versa.

If you increase the amount of rice/water in your Instant Pot, make sure not to cross the No-Fill line. This could create an overflow or a disaster!

However, if you increase the amount of rice in the Instant Pot, you shouldn’t need to increase your cooking time at all. No matter what, cook your rice for the same amount of time.

The pressure building function may take a little longer to process with more rice/water in the pressure cooker. However, the specific cook time will stay the same.

How Long Should I Cook my White Rice in the Instant Pot? 

There are a lot of different opinions on how long you should cook your rice. Some people say 5 minutes on high with a natural release…. I’ve found that my favorite way to cook White Rice in my Instant Pot is to cook the rice for 10 minutes on low with a quick release.

If you use the Zavor LUX pressure cooker, this is the automatic setting that your pressure cooker will default to for long grain white rice.

If you use the Instant Pot brand, you may have to manually set your pressure cooker to this.

How Long will Long Grain White Rice Last in the Fridge?

If you are storing your Long Grain White Rice in an airtight container, it should last for up to 7 days. If you put the container in the freezer, you can freeze your rice for months!

It’s easy to thaw the rice and have it for a dinner later on if you’d like. You can even prep your white rice in the Instant Pot in bulk, and then separate it into frozen meal preps for an easier time later on.

Can I Use the RICE Button on my Instant Pot?

Yes! In fact, I do that all the time. Using the RICE function on your Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker is a very easy way to cook rice, especially long grain white rice.

The problem is that if you use types of rice outside of white or brown, the RICE function can’t always handle it.

When you begin cooking more uncommon types of rice– like wild rice, arborio, or sushi rice, for example– the pressure cooker doesn’t have specific functions to handle each kind.

Instead, you can also use the normal pressure settings to cook any type of rice. This method is more comprehensive, and includes cooking methods for all types of rice!

The graph below details each type of rice and how to cook it using the manual functions instead of the pre-designated RICE function.

What is the Cooking Time for Other Kinds of Rice?

Type of Rice Pressure Setting Grain : Water Ratio Cook Time
Long Grain
White Rice		 Low Pressure 1:1.5 10 minutes
Short Grain White Rice Low Pressure 1:1.5 8-9 minutes
Brown Rice High Pressure 1:1.25 20 minutes
Basmati Low Pressure 1:1.5 7 minutes
Arborio High Pressure 1:3 7 minutes
Jasmine Low Pressure 1:1 8 minutes
Sushi Rice Low Pressure 1:1.5 9 minutes
Wild Rice High Pressure 1:3 25-30 minutes

I made you a graph! Here are the most common types of rice to cook in a pressure cooker, the pressure setting you should use, grain to water ratio, and cook time.

For each of these, perform a Quick Release when the rice has finished cooking. I also have some articles on how to make Brown Rice in the Instant Pot and Wild Rice in the Instant Pot.
