What is Cull?
Cull is what we do not put into your full-price box. It is the shards, pieces, chunks, slivers, and odd-sizes that are always in a bag of fatwood. We don’t think you should have to pay full price for them. It is also those straight sticks of fatwood that do not contain the pitch/resin content as our grade “A” sticks. We have gotten to the point where we can simply pick up a stick and tell you if it is “A” or cull. You will also find some high-resin content sticks in your cull if we feel they are too thin to give a good fire start. Due to deeper culling than previously the fatwood cull is a lot more regular, and will surprise you. This box is also 14x14x14 (like the 50 lb.) and is full. I start my fires with the cull wood, and it works just fine but, as I said, it does take a few more sticks. We have, however, removed the pine needles, sawdust, chunks of debris and chicken feathers that are also found in these bags.
