    2-3 for sure and some weeks it more like 5 or 6. I'm pretty much a grill/smoker junky.

    6 my wife recently made the comment "you know, we have a stove and on oven and they both work". I ignored her.
    Same here but I told her that she can use the stove and I know it will stay clean because it will not get used much  =)). But that did not go over to good.

    My wife has cooked dinner twice since we got our egg in January. I have done the rest, and only once on the stove. Everything else has been egged. I have only done dinner on the egg. After school let's out for summer, I'll do breakfast. (Teacher here. A big perk of the job, although I am a big supporter of year round schooling).

    Wife wants supper by 5:00 pm on week nites so seldom get to cook during week as I'm usually not home from work til 5:30 or 6:00. Weekends 2 to 4 cooks.

    2 to 3 times, but I often use them 2 at a time so does that double my number?

    2-3 times per week, mostly on weekends due to work schedule. Would use it every night if possible.

    I average 6 days / week.  The only evening meals not on the egg are if we go out.

    I don't think I could give a specific number. I go through phases where I use it more or less. Sometimes as many as 4 or 5, sometimes 2 or 3.

    Last week, I was really sick (like stayed home 3 days sick) and then we had company in town last weekend so we were running all over the place doing things, so sadly must say I haven't even fired up my egg since I did that pork butt April 19-20th. But I will be firing it up tonight and I'm trying to think up something to do this weekend for Cinco de Drinko.

    Got the in-laws coming in this weekend, and we will be running around, so looks like no egging for me this weekend.

    I cook on mine about 4 times per week in average. Sometimes I use it instead of the oven to heat up a lasagna or other things I'd normally put in the oven. It gives me something to do after work.

    About 3-4. Would be more but 2 of my neighbors within 500' of my house bought eggs so I eat off theirs several nights a week. Wednesdays are grill night and we have neighbors over so I am off to get a salt block from Sur La Table and a couple tri tips from Costco to cut up into strips and sear on the block.

    2-3 times a week. Hopefully as the weather warms up, it will be more. Try to use the egg on my days off, doing ribs and longer cooks, and then easier stuff during the week.
