The utilization of porous carbon frameworks as hosts for sulfur loading is an important theme in current Li‐S battery research. Unfortunately, the high loading of insulating sulfur often leads to low specific capacities, poor rate properties, and rapid capacity loss. To address this challenge, a facile templating route to fabricate a novel host material, hierarchical porous carbon rods constructed by vertically oriented porous graphene‐like nanosheets (HPCR) is presented. With a high specific surface area, ultralarge pore volume, hierarchical porous structures, and ideal ion transfer pathways, HPCR is a promising candidate for high sulfur loading. When used as the active material for a sulfur cathode, the HPCR‐S composite with 78.9 wt% sulfur exhibits excellent rate performance (646 mAh g−1sulfurat 5 C) and cycling stability (700 mAh g−1sulfurafter 300 cycles at 1 C). Even with a sulfur content of 88.8 wt%, the HPCR‐S composite, without any additional protective polymer coating, still delivers a good rate performance (545 mAh g−1sulfurat 3 C) and cycling stability (632 mAh g−1sulfurafter 200 cycles at 1 C). More importantly, the high sulfur loading (88.8 wt%) ensures that the HPCR‐S composite has a high energy density (880 mAh cm−3cathodeafter 200 cycles at 1 C).
