Cocobricket: An Eco-Friendly Alternative to Charcoal for Barbecues
01 Jul 2025In cooking activities using the barbecue method, charcoal has long been the main fuel because it can produce high heat and a distinctive, tempting aroma. However, behind its practicality, conventional charcoal has a number of negative impacts, especially on the environment due to deforestation and carbon emissions. As a more sustainable solution, now comes cocobricket , a fuel made from coconut shell waste that is environmentally friendly, efficient, and safe to use for grilling activities.
What is Cocobricket?
Cocobricket is a briquette made from powder or coconut shells that are compacted without harmful chemicals. The production process involves burning coconut shells into charcoal, then crushed and molded into solid briquette forms. The result is a natural fuel that has high heat performance and is durable.
Advantages of Cocobricket Compared to Conventional Charcoal
Environmentally friendly
Cocobricket comes from agricultural waste (coconut shells) which are usually not optimally utilized. By utilizing this waste, cocobricket helps reduce tree felling and carbon emissions.
Longer Heat Resistance
Cocobricket is able to store heat stably for more than 2 hours, longer than regular charcoal. This makes it ideal for long-term grilling of meat, fish, or vegetables.
Economical and Efficient
Due to its high durability, users need less cocobricket than charcoal to produce the same amount of heat. This makes it more economical in the long run.
Safe for Health
Cocobrickets do not contain any additional chemicals or synthetic glues, so there is no risk of contaminating food with harmful substances when used for cooking.
Cocobricket Application in Barbecue
Using cocobrickets is very easy and not much different from ordinary charcoal:
- Light it using a lighter or dry paper.
- Wait until the briquettes turn whitish gray, indicating that maximum heat has been reached.
- Place under the grill as usual and start the grilling process.
Cocobricket is suitable for various types of baking, such as:
- Barbecue meat and chicken
- Grilled fish
- Satay or seafood grill
- Vegetarian Grill
