Egg Regret

Well, my wife made the comment that the one thing she regrets is ever bringing the egg into the our house (she got it for me for Valentine's Day). Apparently, it's become an obsession, and I've spent too much time on my phone reading through this forum.....

She didn't complain though after Saturday's Herbs De Provence beer can chicken, so I guess that's a good thing.

    Just keep cooking for her and she'll come around. I think my wife knew I would be fully enamored with it due to all my other hobbies. All or nothing is the only way I roll.

    Heck, she even explained to our guests that I'm getting a 2nd egg at the Salado Fest so I can do indirect and direct simultaneously. I :D

    It's possible to get full WAF, just keep feeding her delicious food!! :)
    Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ....

    Just don't put in bed with you all.  That tends to pi$$ the wives off.

    It's the only time I'll take a shop vac to my egg and she still gets mad! I just don't get it.

    My wife is not happy when she can't eat because I have not taken a picture of it first.

    nyzzi, just tell her it's lucky that you are not a serious case of obsession.  You could be sitting in your driveway sorting charcoal into piles, taking pictures, etc. etc. etc.

    Unfortunately for me I've spent the past two weeks researching charcoal thanks to your reviews, calling up every store I know of around the area asking which brand they carry and how much it is, and even having my wife check too. Was looking for some bins to store my sorted charcoal, so maybe I should hold off a bit. I'll just be sure not to take any pictures of them (while she's looking).
