I think you buffalo dung guys on the prairie are just elitists. |

They're a helluva lot cheaper than a lotta metal boxes that won't last nearly as long. Check Kalamazoo,Wilmington,HastyBake,et al. and then come back and whinge about expenditure/quality of BGE. I use a diff brand of flowerpot but the idea IMO was to buy something that would be the last cooker I'd ever need. monroe(so far so good) |

What about the weight? Can you get it home in a small car?
Can you move it off the porch for hurricane season?

Limited thinking. What if my neighbor's chair is driven into the side of it by 80 mile/hour winds or worse? |

We have a 10 year old Kamado that we wouldn't trade for the world. We were going thru gas bbq's in about 2 or 3 years. Yes they, ceramic cookers, are expensive, but it has paid for itself many times over. We got the wheels on the Kamado, a # 5 size, and it takes 2 men to get it up and down the stairs, 3 or 4, from the top deck to the bottom, but it wheels nicely. The kids are jokingly fighting over it when we're gone. They say the first one with a pick up truck and friends to help schlep it, gets it!! If it broke irreparably we would replace it immediately with a new one. Nan in DE |
