    SmokinGirl2 got a BGE!!!

    I decided on the Large BGE. Since I live in SoCal, my backyard isn't very large and the XL is just too big. It's beautiful, don't get me wrong! But it requires more lump and more time to get up to temp. I think that if you use the large in conjunction with racks, you'll have plenty of space...

    SmokinGirl2 got a BGE!!!

    Because of a lack of time, my first "smoke" was only a spatchcock chicken. Sorry to disappoint:( Better things to follow! Anyhow, I did my chicken indirect with a drip pan (trying to compensate for not owning a raised grid) and it came out beautiful! Crispy, browned, juicy... and wayyyyyy too...

    Chicken Thighs on the BGE w/ Qview

    Did you add any additional wood to your charcoal pit? I just got a new Egg this week and did my first chicken that came out tasting "smoky", wayyyyyyy too smoky! And not a good smoky:( And what tem did you hold? 350ish?

    Spatchcock Chicken on my new BGE... not great:(

    So for my first BGE smoke, I made a spatchcock chicken. I don't have a raised grid so I did indirect cooking with a drip pan underneath to try and compensate. I had looked up suggestions on the way to cook it and one person had said NO CHUNKS OF WOOD! Well, I didn't follow his advice and put...

    Basic Pulled Pork Smoke

    Do you use the foil pan throughout the whole process and cover with foil at the appropriate time? Or do you smoke it on the grates first then put it in the pan and cover it?

    BGE vs WSM???

    Have you or rhinton82 purchased a Weber Performer lately??? There are some negative reviews out there comparing the new ones to the old ones. Complaints of cheap/thin metal, steel grates that aren't stainless, legs that bend/fall out when moved. Seems like the old ones may have been built...

    Squirrel got a new toy, Primo XL

    Hi there! So it's been almost a year since the big purchase. What's the latest opinion/news??? I'm debating between a BGE and a Primo. Suggestions? I like the oval design as it seems like it would hold ribs better. Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated! And what did you find the...

    BGE vs WSM???

    I'm in need of some serious opinions! BGE or WSM??? I like the ability to "grill" on the BGE (can you do that on the WSM?) but I like that the WSM has double racks so you can smoke multiple dishes (beans, meat, etc) simultaneously. I know the cost of the BGE is double that of the WSM but I'd...
