I think that’s just the aussie brand name for briquettes.

Thanks for that, looks like it's designed for briquettes so might have to wait till I've got rid of this giant sack of huge bits of 'restaurant' lump charcoal that the local garden shop guy recommended to my wife. I have to smash them into smaller pieces with a hammer. I googled and found the 'minion method' which looks a bit more rough and ready and might work with that. Fwiw I have no aspirations to become an expert bbqer, just competent - we're 95% veggie for one thing!

Lump charcoal burns faster and hotter, so it’s better for quick direct grilling where you want some char.
