'''Portable [[DK Barrel]]s'''<ref>{{cite|date=2013|title=''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D'' digital instruction manual|publisher=Nintendo|language=en|page=12}}</ref> (referred to as simply '''DK Barrels''' in-game) are items introduced in {{a|DKCR3D|l}}. If [[Donkey Kong]] brings a Portable DK Barrel into a level, he can throw it from his inventory. This means Donkey Kong can use the effects of a DK Barrel at most points in a level.

DK Barrels are introduced in ''Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D''. They are an item exclusive to the game's New Mode. DK Barrels can be purchased from [[Cranky Kong's Shop]] for five [[Banana Coin]]s. If [[Donkey Kong]] brings a DK Barrel with him in a level, is not with [[Diddy Kong]], and is in a state where he can carry a [[barrel]], the player can tap the Touch Screen to have Donkey Kong throw out the DK Barrel. (DK Barrels cannot be held, only thrown.) This has all the effects a normal DK Barrel has: defeating enemies, breaking [[Burlap Hanging Sack]]s, calling out Diddy Kong, and healing both Kongs's health. (States where Donkey Kong cannot hold Barrels include while in [[Mine Cart]]s, while standing on Mine Carts, inside [[Rocket Barrel]]s, on Rocket Barrels, on [[Rambi]], in [[Barrel Cannon]]s, while shooting out of Barrel Cannons, while [[Cling]]ing, while [[Hand Slap|ground-pound]]ing, and while [[grab|hold]]ing any other object.)
 
In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns HD]]'', DK Barrels are available in Modern Mode.
 
===''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''===
While DK Barrels do not appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', [[Funky's Fly 'n' Buy]] sells Diddy Kong Barrels, Dixie Kong Barrels, and Cranky Kong Barrels for 15 Banana Coins each. Each of these items enables Donkey Kong to start a level with the barrel's character. If Donkey Kong already has a buddy, then the Barrel is inert until he does not have a buddy. After a short delay, signified by it growing and shrinking, it activates to give Donkey Kong the specified character.
