Replacement going well so far thanks to video on FredsMusicandBBQ.com . Question: Should I trim the excess gasket hanging outside the egg? If so, when?
Thanks!
Note to self: DO NOT do this in 100 deg Ga weather

I would not bother. I think it would be hard to get a nice even cut and it is doing no harm.

Thanks, after fretting about a weak dollar bill pull on on side I decided to call it done and give it a try. One thing I noticed is that I need to open the vents much more to get my target low temp of 225. The probe is a bit higher (adj rig top vs. BGE grill) and I R&R'ed all ceramics to clean all ash out. Using the same lump, Royal Oak. I would expect higher temps at my normal vent settings after this. Perhaps I was getting much higher temps before because of my blown OEM felt gaskets and this is how it should work ?
