    Great pickup.  We'll need to see pics of just how many racks of ribs it will hold.

    Damn, I'm sad to hear about Offenbachers. I'll need to swing by Rockville or Columbia.

    Thanks for the follow-up, @CMH88 .  @Firemanyz was interested in the table - was that still there and being sold as a set with the XL?

    That thing is so massive!!!  Look how small the hole looks!  

    And this is NOT quoting a conversation between my wife and I. 
    Just bought an Egg?  Here is what you get to look forward to now:

    Plate Setter, FlameBoss 200, Spider, PSWOO-CI, Additional Rig Shelf for dome cooking, Thermapen, iGrill2, Cast Iron, Blackstone, Cooking Accessories for the Blackstone, Cover for the Egg and the Blackstone, shopping for Rub like a fine wine or IPA, and a new fascination with lump and what brand is the best-all to be debated every Friday Night.  Next desires-Joetisceriie, Adjustable Rig, Grillmates, table and more eggs

    @CMH88 was that the price for the table and XL egg?  If so I may need to call them and give them my credit card info.

    No, they must have sold the table by itself. It was just sitting on the ground without a nest. Hell if it did i probably would have bought it myself.

    Just a hunch, but it will take a bunch of lump whether it's center cut or not. Have 28 cooks on my first box of center cut, and still some in the box.

    It can easily hold a full bag of Fogo - which is what I use.  I wonder if they offer a bulk order discount?  Need to check into that.

    Been breaking it in over the last two days with ribs yesterday and a pork shoulder today (family beginning to trickle in tonight since we're hosting tomorrow so pulled pork sounded fitting).  Got a 27 pound turkey that will go on later tonight... and I have no concerns about the bird fitting.

    A little after the turkey goes on... going to fire up the LBGE and start making a bacon and cheddar cheese tart for a 'healthy' breakfast option (http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1195935/potato-bacon-cheese-tart-had-to-make-it#latest).

    That's it. I am not going to buy another Egg until I can afford to add the XL to my L. I have such XL envy its giving me cotton mouth.

    @DoubleEgger   It's an XXL.  You don't buy one of those just to have one girl jump out.  That is definitely a two girl egg.

    Hope you try some FOGO (no affiliation other than using it and finding they have the largest lump out there)....

    Thing is a beast, can't even imagine the heat it would give off if you loaded it up and let it burn wide open.
