Ozark Oak lump in Tulsa area??

[simple]

Warehouse Market seems to have quit carrying it. They now have multiple flavors of Kingsford instead. Any chance somebody here might have a line on finding it in the Tulsa area?
Thanks!

I've bought it from Lowes before.

But, according to this site, it is no longger produced:

I also buy the B&B lump from Academy and it seems to work well.

thanks for the confirmation. The Chamber of Commerce where they were located says they contracted to Royal Oak and packaging under that label now.

I'm trying my first bag of it and not impressed. Hard to light, flavorless, and loads of ash floating around whenever I took the lid off the weber. At least I didn't have fireworks when I was lighting it andmd haven't found any metal/rocks in it like the Cowboy I tried.

Yeah, I don't like Royal Oak. It sparks like crazy. I only use it when I need to make an emergency run to Wal-Mart, which is what they sell and don't want to make a run into Tulsa to buy better stuff.
