Doesn't appear to be one. Most sites mentioning it point to www.biggreenegg.com |

No contest that I heard of, BGE supplies the cooker and charcoal and the cooks bring the food, plates, and whatever else they need. The food is shared by everyone. It was a lot of fun. You can go to BGE's website and a lot of photos are posted in the forum section. -RP |

The BGE website is www.biggreenegg.com. There is a beta version of their new site at www.biggreenegg.net. On the beta site you can find information about the Eggtoberfest. If you read the forum, there are a lot of posts from attendees with photos, etc. TNW |

Book marked it for future, is this thing open to the public? Yes. Plus there are other Eggfests around the country, too if it is more convenient. Waldorf, MD in May, Oklahoma in September, Florida in (I think) March, Texax sometime. If you check the BGE forum occasionally, you will find the banners and posts about them. ------------ www.nakedwhiz.com www.lump-charcoal.com |

I stopped by on Saturday at the new location as it's two miles away - to pick up some charcoal - and all I saw was smoke kicking out the back. ![]() Smelled like a good time anyway... -W On Mon, 17 Oct 2005 09:02:38 -0700, Randy wrote: I went to the Eggtoberfest in Atlanta last weekend, what a blast! 130+ cookers going all day kicking out great food.
