ABSTRACT:
A process for forming an improved briquette for use with gas-fired grills and the like. A briquette is formed from a mixture consisting essentially of sand and the following percentages of materials based on the weight of the sand: about 1% water; 5%-15% ball clay, bentonite, or other suitable alternatives; 0.25%-2% iron oxide for coloring; 3%-8% sodium aluminate; and 5%-12% sodium silicate, preferably grade #40. Individual briquettes formed from this mixture retain heat in gas grills for aiding the cooking process. The briquettes are placed in the grill and heated prior to cooking. Thereafter, the briquettes maintain cooking temperatures even after the gas is turned lower and for a time period after the gas flame is removed.
