Well the Old and the New LBGE, won't look like that very long.
Now the learning begins and I've learned so much (probably enough to #$%# things up and hell of lot more to go) just in the last few days from all you folks here.
Getting a bacon-wrapped filet ready for my bride and a nice New York for myself going shortly. Tomorrow is a rack of St. Louis ribs. I also bought a 8# butt along with the rest at this great meat market here in Fresno, CA.
More pics to come, can't wait to get it going.

Thanks for all the welcomes. These things rock, I was amazed at the ability to control temp and I didn't have a clue WTF I was doing. Here's dinner tonight and the flavor in the steaks was amazing just BGE charcoal and I was able to get it just rare enough for my bride.They told me at the shop not to crank it up to 700+ the first time out to make sure the gaskets are sealed so I kept it at 500 and the meat came out great. This was fun, wasn't quite sure at first getting it started, but what do I know. The learning is going to be a gas and an epicurean delight.Why TF didn't I get one of these 10 or more years ago.Can't wait for the ribs tomorrow.LBGE - I like the hot stuff.

Nice job and welcome! You can sear the bejesus out of steaks with a low fire if you pick up a little (like 10" grill grate) from Home Despot and lay it right on the burning lump. Also, you can do a "cave man" where you throw the steak right on the burning lump. No risk to the gaskets (I don't believe there is anyway if you give them an hour or so to cure).

Welcome. Your retirement just got a whole lot better. Looking forward to your future cooks.
Careful, this site is just as addicting as the egg.Steven

Welcome. I like your line up of cooks. I would include a spatchcock chicken in there too! Once you master temp control there will be no stopping you. Oh yeah, get a Thermapen and don't put the meat on until the smoke flows clear or smells good. Congrats. You will be blown away by how much better your food will be over the gasser. BTW, don't tell any one but I still use my gasser for hot dogs or a quick burger.XL BGE; Medium BGE; L BGE

Let me just say that "for my bride" sounds so much more respectful than SWMBO (an acronym I loathe). Much respect to you sir.I cook. I eat. I repeat. Thornville, Ohio -
