Hey all newbie here making his first post... I just bought a BGE last week and got a chance to use it this past weekend.  My current smoker was getting old, as was my grill, so instead of replacing them both I opted for the BGE.  If I had known how awesome these things were, I would have made the purchase a long time ago.

Went to the butcher and saw they had pork butts on sale... so naturally I bought two 9#'s.  I figured that should be plenty for my wife and I.  :)

Anyway, here are some pics (please excuse the crappo cell pics... I told my wife to grab my camera and she brought out her cell phone):

This is 5 hours into the cook


Here they are after resting


And one of my sandwich


This was by far the best pulled pork I've ever made... not even close.  I placed an order (thanks to all the helpful info on here) for a Thermapen & the Maverick ET-733 which should be here any day now.  Now I am trying to decide between the platesetter or a spider.

Thanks for all the help thus far.
