    Welcome-Here's a great link for lots of info-www.greeneggers.com   On the initial forum page look in the box on the left side and select the "quick references parts 1 and 2", and the search feature, such as it is, provides more info than here.

    I fussed around nearly 2 years before i bought my first Egg. Seemed like a "plunge." Turned out to be a really good, sensible decision. They are "eggcellent" appliances. Tho' a bit more work than the kitchen range, just about everything comes out better. Making stock would be a notable exception.

    So try out starting a fire, and selecting a temperature, and holding it. Its a good bet to make a first cook something fairly quick. Mine was a 1 pound chunk of pork loin. Followed by brats and chicken pieces before doing ribs.

    No it won't, planning on buying XL in March. I bought the Large first, to learn. Been cooking on a big drum smoker for six years

    Bought my 1st gas grill many years ago.  Salesman said food tasted just as good on gas as charcoal, (pure bunk).  After all these years I went out in August and bought a large BGE.  Got so "pumped" with really good tasting food, went out and bought another large for my lake house.
