briquette
Compressed fuel chunk
A briquette is a compressed block of combustible material—charcoal dust, coal, or sawdust bound together—used as fuel.
Charcoal briquettes are standard for backyard grilling: I need to pick up some briquettes for the cookout.
The shape allows for even burning and easy stacking.
Also spelled briquet.
