Ya"ll said they were good,and boy were they."But",the first couple were dry because i didn"t flip them fast enough. but after that i flipped about every 3min. for about 10min. and "shazam" we were in business.

Cooked at 400deg. on regular grid not raised, it kinda tired me out going back and forth flipping but they turned out better than I"ve had on any other grill. Wish i had of bought an egg earlier.

After all that flipping i think im going to be a set it and forget it man and smoke it.

    simply get a raised grid and you can cook longer and flip less. i cooked burgers tonight at 400, turned twice and they were juicy!

    Hamburgers on the Egg is reason enough to be an Egghead.

    I cooked what turned out to be the messiest, drippiest, sloppiest, greasiest, hamburger ever on Maggie Mini yesterday for lunch and it was fantastic. And Maggie seemed to have enjoyed the moment as well.

    Of course my cardiologist would take a look at it and say, “You’re gonna die.” But hey, I gotta live before I die… Besides, my Texas Drivers License Says I Won't Expire 'til May 2011 And Then I Have An Option To Extend For Four Years LOL.

    You realize, of course, that sooner or later the population of the world will require 'expiration dates' for each and every person. Kinda like what happened in the movie, "Soilent Green."

    I just think it's nice that our states give us the renewal option without too much fuss.
