Big Green Egg

With grilling season right around the corner I am in the market for a new grill. I'm replacing a cheap one I've had several years and it's long past due. I had heard of the big green egg but just started looking into it. I know they're quite a bit more expensive than most grills. All the reviews I've seen for it are exceptional. I like that you can use it as a smoker as well as a grill. So, I figured I'd ask the huddle if anyone has it and if it's worth it.

Have you used that yet? I almost bought the same exact one this weekend at Lowes. Was wondering if a 2 burner would get hot enough to sear a steak if I don't feel like doing it on a cast iron skillet first.

 

Fired it up Sunday night and only used 1 burner for 2 t-bones.... didn't take long for the left side burner to get right about 300.

 

2:30 sear one side, same on the other and again flip for 2 minutes each side.

I made the 2014 BGE thread....I am a fairly new user....

It's absoluelty worth it. There are so many things you can do on it like pizza, wings, steak, brisket, pork chops, butt, etc...too many to list.

I bought mine with a table off Craigslist and paid about half, just keep checking CL....there will be a good deal, but jump on it fast, as they don't last long on CL.. Don't get anything less than a large.

I also have a weber 330 genesis...I would say I am about 50/50 in usage between BGE/Webber.

Thanks for the info. I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with a large. Anything in particular you like better about your webber?

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      Apparently some in the mediasphere are blowing up LaMelo's accident in his Hummer. Scott Fowler who never wanted us to draft him did Scott Fowler things in an interview and unfortunately LaMelo took the bait. Much bigger concern are these awful games from both him and Brandon Miller. And while I am certainly a believer that Miller has plenty of time to get it figured out the reality is we've been saying the same thing about LaMelo's at times very hot and cold game for what seems like forever now as he is going on into his sixth year. Regardless of the short lived win streak which feels more like a mirage than anything honestly. The Hornets should still leave every available option on the table after the season.

      A pretty insane QB stat

      By frankw · Posted

      Well it's not exactly new information that you don't have to draft a QB in the top 5 to compete for a championship. But the poorly run organizations end up with the first three picks. Most of the QB's drafted there never stand a chance. And then you have teams like the Panthers led by the Tepper's that would rather make a big splash to serve their own egos and get talked about in the media for several weeks by trading all the way up than actually being intelligent and strategic and staying put. Worst outcome in that is if you miss you can try again without mortaging your future. But there is another layer in all this. The league is changing again. Even a guy like Darnold with all his physical tools every box checked in that area did very little in the Super Bowl. Seattle had a stout roster all around. Same thing with the Eagles when they blew out the Chiefs. Yet here we are stuck with the tiniest QB in the league.
