I have a large in a nest and when I do a low and slow it is with the guru installed sandwiched between the screen and the slider. It takes some effort to install it that way, and no way it can fall out. The top vent is barely open. Unless the egg decides to spontaneously disintegrate, or someone tampers with it, or is damaged by a falling tree limb, or gets knocked over by a bear, or a one-in-a-billion meteor strike then it should be fine.

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

I've seen that happen in a table where the hole was too tight to allow for expansion. That was a questionable design choice not to support the bottom on the mini.Carolina Q said:FearlessTheEggNoob said:I have a large in a nest and when I do a low and slow it is with the guru installed sandwiched between the screen and the slider.

What was you using to support this mini? -
That stand used to come with the mini, but they have since changed the design.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

I'm in the better to be safe than sorry camp.My egg table is metal, it won't burn.My table sits on a concrete patio, it won't burn.Yet I make it a point to stay home during the entire cook and I've never cooked a meat so large I had to let it run during the night while I sleep.Call me paranoid if you must, but playing it safe with fire is the only way for me.Large BGE in a Sole' Gourmet Table

@SmokeyPitt Thanks, I did not know that. That must have been in my pre-egging days.

I haven't done any overnight cooks and now am paranoid about doing one!
