10. You know your hooked on the BGE when. . . you are sitting at work eating some of the best pulled pork you have made to date and all you can think about is making more and how to make it even better. Fridays are for dreaming anyway.[p]Anybody else have anything to add to the top ten list?[p]Steve

    Pug, 9. When someone mentions "Green Eggs and Ham" you immediately start thinking about the type of smoking wood you want to use.

  • Pug,[p]You know you're hooked on the BGE when you live in Syracuse, NY and your meat bill is bigger than your heat bill !

    EJ,
    If you hit the refresh on browser more than once a minute to see what the new forum posts are.
    You check the forum post Before you check your work email.
    Someone mentions briquettes and lighter fluid; you cringe and explain about lump
    Your co-workers think that you belong to The Cult of the Green Egg.
    People thing that you perverted because you are always talking about rubbing your butt
    Cole Slaw excites you.
    You have ever had a conversation about the Physic of Smoking meat or better yet, the chemical composition of smoke.
    You look forward to cooking something for 24 hours straight.
    People start calling you by your forum handle more than your real name.
    You buy a mini to take to other people’s house for dinner, just so that you can cook your own.
    You bulk order spices and herbs that you have never heard of.
    You sort your lump. (Just kidding C~W, JJ and YB)
    Mustard on a Steak?!?
    You hide your Mini from your wife or husband.
    All you need is a medium to make a complete set.
    You really really really need another egg.[p]That is all that I can come up with for now.[p]Enjoy,
    RhumAndJerk[p]

    Pug,
    Your neighbors actually cry when they fire up old gassy.
    You have a bumper sticker that reads “Honk if you love the BGE”
    You have ever woken up at 3 AM to check the temperature of your butt.
    You have sent ribs back because they have been boiled.
    You get yelled at for tracking ash into the kitchen
    You know more about cuts of meat than the butcher
    You buy a digital camera just to take pictures of your BBQ
    Just exactly how is a BGE better than a girlfriend?
    You plan your vacations around Eggtoberfest.
    You have more smoking wood than you could ever use, just because your neighbor cut down a tree.[p]Still thinking,
    RhumAndJerk[p]

    When your pre-nuptial agreement contains the following clause:[p]"Item(s) meeting the following criteria, being both green and ceramic, shall under no circumstance be considered part of communal property. Said item(s)shall remain in perpetuity the property of the original purchser/owner for his/her sole enjoyment and/or use."

    RhumAndJerk,[p]- your BGE gets vaccumed more than your car
    - your wife asks why, and you just mumble "it's a BGE thing, you wouldn't understand"
    - a Large and a Mini just aren't enough, you feel the need to "adopt" a Small and or a Medium[p][p]TT

    Pug,
    THIS IS GREAT!!! I hope someone (who can type faster than six words an hour,like me) will compile these lofty words of WISDOM so they can be printed off and passed on to future generations of EGGnecks.Thanks:-) Bob

    Pug,[p] When it's pouring rain & you just stand there smiling cause you just started a 18hr brisket & your neighbor is outside putting the cover on his gas unit.LOL

    When getting up at 4am to look at the egg temp makes you happy but getting up at 6am for work makes you miserable[p]Earl
