Chris in Pearland, TX Welcome to pottery cooking. BGE's main competitor, Kamado, has a large following at alt.food.barbecue. I have a grilldome...also a BGE competitor. lots of info in AFB and helpful hints . There are several sites which cater to ceramics.BGE has their own forum as does K and GD. http://www.bbq-porch.org/faq.asp http://www.nakedwhiz.com/bge.htm http://www.tm52.com/bge/ should also be helpful. You won't be sorry you bought a ceramic smoker,roaster , grill, pit. Be sure you use lump charcoal and not briquettes.Burn hotter and can last longer on low and slow. not nearly as much ash as briquettes. Keep on smokin' Jack

Big Green Egg
We purchased the Big Green Egg yesterday... any comments or opinions about it. Which size did you buy, and why? -- Larry My husband (who was in charge of this decision) opted for the largest one. The store owner (a Big Green Egg user himself) said the only complaint he'd ever had was from a customer who had purchased the medium size and wished he'd purchased the largest one.

Since I can't get my hands on a Kamodo, I'd at least like to try a BGE on for size. I worry about how heavy the lids are in trying to open them. Paula

Where are you? post a question on the Kamado forum, and I'll bet someone will invite you over for a sampling. BOB

Anyway it's: Chim-Chimneys, Inc. 830 W. Main Street League City, TX 77583 281-316-9077 It's across the street from Dairy Queen. They have a web site, but it appears to be in the process of being updated. More than likely you'll be dealing with Brad or Brenda who are the owners. Great people! www.Chimchimneys.com Chris in Pearland, TX
