My medium woo2 and wok ring are on the way

I ordered it at 10:30 and it was shipped at 14:30.  I wonder what took so long.  :D

    I'll be watching closley for reviews and opinions. If it goes the way I think it will, I'll be pulling the trigger soon myself.

    I have the Medium Woo2, but not the wok ring.  Use the Woo2 on almost every cook.  It really is nice to bring everything out of the egg as a unit.  I recommend it highly, but then again, I only use it 3 nights a week.  I have a cast iron griddle that I use on the bottom for reverse sears - works out perfect.

    By the way - the 4th night I'm usually using the Woo2 on the XL.  I have an AR for the XL also, but the Woo2 sees much more use. 

    Wish I could cook more, but usually there is only myself and the GFU, and I hate to waste food - we eat leftovers...

    I have the large woo2,spider and ci grill for spider .Love all of it . The platesetter sits inside the woo so when you are done with your cook you can easily pull grate and platesetter out with woo and egg will cool a lot faster . The spider and ci grill is great for searing . One of the best accessories I have bought for the egg beside paella pan purchased this past weekend.Look at the kickash charcoal basket,another winner,works great.

    I have the Woo ring, the wok ring, and the carbon steel wok. I use the woo ring every time on my medium. The wok ring and wok gets use once a week. They are all good pieces to have for a medium. My hetero life mate prefers stir fry on the egg now as compared to cooking in the house. I can get a much higher temp and don't have to worry about getting the house all smokey and smelling like stir fry anymore.

    @KSwoll - I'm sort of an old fashioned person, and this may be wayyyy OT, but what is a hetero life mate?  I'm not trying to pry, and consider myself accepting of multiple life styles.  I'm truly not hip to  modern terminology.  Is this a term that applies to sexual preference?  Or do you have multiple life mates, and this applies to one of them.  Please don't take offense - I'm just trying to understand and possibly develop a new modern descriptor for the GFU (girl friend unit).

    I am looking to get a cast iron plate or pan to set on the wok ring for searing purposes. sctdg What are you using for your CI grate?  I like the KA basket but they do not make one for a medium BGE.  FEDEX tracking shows my order will be here tomorrow,  Just in time for Sunday nights party!

    Only time I have heard the term is on Jay and Silent Bob.  And he is referring to his life long live-in best friend. Nothing sexual, just best buddies that are as close as husband and wife minus the intimacy.

    @Thatgrimguy -  Minus the intimacy???  Methinks that sucks...  I love Jay and Silent Bob.  Dogma is my favorite film, but that just points out my perverted sense of aesthetics.  Don't mean to hijack the thread...

    I think the hetero life-mate quote is on Dogma.. or maybe it's mallrats.. can't remember!

    lol, I was trying to be funny with everyone's terms of endearment for their significant other. The answer to your question is my wife is my hetero life mate. I did borrow this from from Jay and Silent Bob.

    OK - thanks.  It is funny - once you understand that it's not some PC hoohaw jargon.  Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back is where reference seems to come from.  I've never seen it.  I guess I need to see if any one of the thousand services I subscribe to has it. 

    I wonder if the GFU would hit me if I introduced her as my hetero life mate.  Gonna try it tomorrow.  If you hear about a bunch of folks stranded on an island because their pilot was incapacitated, you'll know what happened.  Hope you don't mind if I at least temporarily make it my own...
