Been kicking around the idea of a second egg for some time now.....still haven't decided between a mini or a small.
I cook mostly for two, and have a large now.....so it seems like a mini would be ideal.

Large Mini is a great combo. Mini does most of the work for us during the week, the large is great for bigger weekend cooks. Hmmm...which one should I fire up tonight? Only cooking for one since Mrs G is back on the road again. Having choices is great.

Yeah....you guys are helping push me toward the mini.

Just thought of another reason to own a Mini. For those of you living where it gets cold you can put your Mini in the fireplace and use it all winter.....Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now).

Don't know that the HighQue grate would work for anything very fine. The grids are far apart.*******Owner of a large and a beloved mini in Philadelphia

It would have to be very small, and then just use a screen.

That photo is a picture of Mickey's 8 year old large Egg. His wife asked him why he always wraps his cooks up in a Luby's Cafeteria bag before bringing them in the house from the Egg. He said it keeps it fresher that way.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

That's amazing. I've got a small on hold at my dealer but this was a very interesting thread on the mini! I just feel like it'd be too small. Never seen one in person thoR2Egg2Q said:_______________________________________________XLBGE -

If I had the mini last night it would have saved me two burnt fingers. Had the large full roasting peppers and tomatoes over the platesetter. When they were done, pulled them and was pulling PS out too to sear chicken and damn welders gloves failed on me. Got a nice blister on my middle finger. Could have seared the chicken on mini while roasting veggies on large.Columbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013

First Egg was a Small, then a Large and later won a Mini. The Mini was used so much more than the other two I ended up selling the Small.Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

A rack of St Louis spares cut in half & cooked on two tiers.
Looks like there is a woo then a custom second tier above the stock raised (on woo) grate.Columbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013 -
