It looks like child's play compared to Stikes but it's my feeble attempt at a pumpkin. My neighbor walked up to it and asked what we were cooking. I don't think she realized it was a pumpkin. We said, "Oh it's just a pumpkin". I don't think it registered. She moved onto talking about something else.

    Great job on the Mini!  Am I the only one wondering how long it would last if you fired it up?

    Big Green Pumpkin, the next knock-off. :)

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

    That is not a feeble attempt. It's very cool, I love it. I predict this pic will become a Halloween classic.
    Happily egging on my original large BGE since 1996... now the owner of 5 eggs. Call me crazy, everyone else does!

    That is awesome. Did you light it? You have to light it. I want to see some burgers cooking. 

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    Thanks for all the kind words. I had fun with it. If I had more time I could have done a little more with it. The paint was still sticky from the night before.

    @SmokeyPitt I'm tempted. Do you think I need to worry about the paint on the outside if cooking on it? Maybe I'll try to keep the temp down somehow. I still have the piece where I cut the bottom vent out. I can trim it down a little. If not, I can always try to cook on it and see how it works. I wouldn't necessarily need to eat it

    I would bet the paint would be fine.  you have a lot of moisture to cook off before the paint sees a lot of heat.

    We had to use a giftcard up before it expired last night for dinner. I'll give it a go tonight and see how it works
