Hey Everyone

Im stressing out over here! I got my large egg about a month ago and cooked on it multiple times. Below is a list of items Ive cooked lately with the good and bad.

  1. Pork Tenderloin
    1. Home made rub
    2. cooked until internal temp was 145 deg
    3. Let the egg heat up for a good hour at 400 deg
    4. Ive cooked a better tenderloin on a electric stove
    5. Nice and moist.
    6. Not allot of flavor
    7. Unwanted smoke flavor ( bad smoke )
  2. Pork Butt ( picnic cut )
    1. Home made rub
    2. 7 pounds
    3. cooked until internal temp was 200
    4. Nice and moist
    5. Not allot of flavor
I use the big green egg charcoal and an electric rod to start my fire.

My next cook im going to try a different rub to see if thats the issue. I also dont understand why I need to have the egg cook out the charcoal for so long.

Please please help im starting to second guess this purchase.

Thanks ahead of time
