Another XXL Story

Was just in the local BGE dealer, a Pinch A Penny. He has an XXL on order, to arrive in a couple weeks. Going for $4K.
Says their orders are not to sell set up at the curb, that they have to take it apart and reassemble at the buyer's location.

4,000 !!!!! Man alive. Maybe it will come down in the future if it doesn't sell good.
Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
for $4g I would get a Kamodo Kamado. Not as big but the baddest $4k grill on the planetOr I would get 3XL's or 4 larges if you really felt you needed that kind of space.I saw in one of their promo pics that an adult human can fit in a XXL. I haven't cooked human in quite some time but it's nice to know you can.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX

Yep, for that kind of money I think I'd add a nice offset stick burner. $2K would be more what I would think.They/Them

Adult humans are too tough... Kinda stringy. Sous vide might be better.

This makes me think of CHUD. Classic movie if you can remember it. Was the first movie my parents rented when we got a VCR.

) just curious...does the Mothership not want to sell the XXL? With that price tag they aren't going to move many. Not to mention eggcessories will be eggtremely limited.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL -
I have to say I think two XLs would have more utility for the cost. Seems to me that only a restaurant or caterer could make use of this.

$4K is crazy. I can't imagine why anyone would get that vs 2 XLsWhich came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

We've been mattress shopping all day. 4k for a grill doesn't seem so outrageous anymore. :-t $-) :((Slumming it in Aiken, SC.

I tried a sleep-number - IMO like sleeping on a bad air mattress.
-
Sorry doc. Didn't mean to hijack the thread.
I had my mind made up on the sleep number till I laid on it. Felt like an air mattress. Now it's between the temperpedic and sealy's comparable foam mattress. Same price basically same warranty.Slumming it in Aiken, SC. -
I saw in one of their promo pics that an adult human can fit in a XXL. I haven't cooked human in quite some time but it's nice to know you can.
It's a bit expensive. Currently $100/lb at Walmart (blue light special)."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike -
If you don't need the $4k....trade it for an Egg you don't need instead?
3 XL's for less money. I'll sell them, but delivery and set-up will cost you.

A buddy of mine got to cook on one at the Athens EggFest. It takes one 20 lb bag of lump to fill it. He cooked 10 lbs of wings on the grate at one time and there was plenty of room left over.Dave - Austin, TX

Honestly I just can't see why anyone would buy it. 2 XLs has more capacity.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
