BGE forum fine print said NOTHING about the costs to join

Posts: 455
I have looked over the fine print of the forum rules twice now and I saw nothing about there being a cost associated with joining.
This arrived in the mail today. And the Thermopen with Zippered case and TimeStick will be here Tuesday.
I have only been here about a month. I have been building my table and bar for the outdoor kitchen and haven't even taken delivery of my XL and Med yet. So far my list of things to get is about as long as my leg and I am 6'2". Things like AR, Woo, Pizza stones, various CI stuff and so on.
All kidding aside, you folks are great and I have learned so much that I already have some confidence that my learning curve with the Eggs has been shortened. Thanks to all of you for posting and sharing. I hope that when I get my eggs and get into cooking that I will have some things worth sharing.

Welcome and have fun!

Thanks. And Oh Yeah, I forgot about the Kick Ash Baskets, too. As much fun as I am having now I can't wait to see what its like when I actually start cooking.

My only advice is to take it slow with the accessories. We all have some things laying around we wish we hadn't bought. Figure out your cooking style and go from there. Like @cazzy said the spending never stops. Between accessories, high quality meats, eggcessories, and complimentary grills, I've spent way more money than I should have.1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC

My advice at this point is any time you have the urge to buy something go to the store and get a beverage of your choosing and truly debate if you need it.

Thanks guys. You do realize that this is all tongue in cheek. I am having a blast preparing. I did read the thread about all the things you have bought and now know you didn't need. I learned a lot from that one. It has been a long time since I was this filled with anticipation about anything. I kinda like the feeling of excitement again.

The cost to join is nothing compared to what you will spend in the future to remain an 'Egger.

You can justify all this stuff. What I regret is getting interested in expensive coolers. That was a big mistake and I blame this forum for that. I have already pulled the trigger on a few and am on the wait list for @SGH new brand, because evidently I need those too.XL,L,SWinston-Salem, NC

No joke. You'll learn to stay clear of some peoples threads or you'll end up broke. These people on here know how to strike the "want it nerve" and send it into overdrive.
The Bear Claws will not go unused. Even if you never pull pork again, they'll get plenty of use. They work awesome for removing spatchcocks from the grid.Steven

Finding a place to store the stuff near the egg is another problem. I hate having to run around getting things from various places, but there's only so much outdoor storage one can have.Two Large Eggs, 6 gal Cajun Fryer, and a MiniMax in Charlotte, NC - My New Table

Welcome aboard and enjoy the journey. And @YukonRon has always preached about the cost to stay .I will echo the "go easy on the accessories" until you have had a chance to cook for a while. Frees up $$ to spend on high-end meats!Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
