    @badinfluence‌ & @FanOfFanboys‌ $3,730 is Egg only. $4,695 Includes Egg, PS, nest and delivery to home (roll up to garage or porch so long as it is a flat surface) per this dealer. Again for the $$$ me, myself & I would not buy it for the reasons I already listed. However, I hope whom ever does take that plunge enjoys their new XXLBGE (which I'm sure they will).

    I don't want to cause friction here but for that kind of money I would step up to my Dream Komodo Kamado

    Better check again on a kimono kama do more like 6800.00 for one about the size of a large.

    Agreed. The "big bad" Komodo kamado (the name they gave it) is 32" compared to the xxl bge at 29". I would sell all five of my eggs for that one, but sadly I think I would still need about 3k to get it.

    Just out of curiosity... are there many aftermarket goodies for the XXL's?
    I'm thinking of things like the AR's or woos.
    My guess it they may be slow to follow based on the rate of sales.
    Cool looking egg though!!

    Well its here at my dealers but won't get delivered till next Monday now as they can't deliver it today and I leave tomorrow do work till Sunday. But did get to see it all stacked up on the pallets...lol. Guess it's a limited edition one as it is one of the first 1000 made. Didn't know that.

    @Ladeback69‌ not anymore. I lived in KC for 9 years and now Ames IA. On our multiple visits each year, I usually pick up Ozark Oak in Olathe or Rockwood at KC BBQ source...so I've been to that store several times. Great people. Can't wait to stop by next time.
