Hmmm... lump vs wood. They're the same except the lump has the advantage of
bein reduced to charcoal. Lump gets goin sooner and is ready to be added to
the offset when needed. How much to add and when depends on your cookin
method.

Me, myself and I would take the lump over the wood. Rationale: easy to
store, saves the wood for the fireplace.
