Lump charcoal (vs briquettes) is the kind to get started with, yes.

E.g., Cowboy Charcoal

Btw, "The Biochar Revolution" edited by Paul Taylor which just came
out recently is the hands-on book for practical biochar.

At the risk of sounding simplistic, I have a question on biochar: if
biochar is based on charcoal created in a smothered fire, does it
follow that you could take commercial charcoal (not the briquettes,
the "real" stuff), pulverize it, add it to your soil, and get a
similar effect?
