    mad max beyond eggdome,
    Yeah, just finished reading it myself. Pretty positive stuff. There are actually two articles. The other one is about a hotdog vendor in Wakefield who wood-grills his stuff on a BGE. [p]Interesting that stike never mentioned this guy before given that he lives in Wakefield. Believe me, the town is not that big.[p]Paul

    Essex County,
    we've mentioned him, he always comes up in the hotdog threads. hotdogs are just too pedestrian for you to read about, mr. "devon arm roast" guy.
    hehhe
    reading the articles now. full page. nice coverage.

    stike,
    They give the dealer in Middleton props. Maybe we should give them another shot. Two years ago, they didn't know what a platesetter was. Maybe there's hope now.

    Essex County,
    i bought a large for a friend (went halfsies, i'm not THAT generous) from Kirley. but my wife and his girlfriend went, i never saw the place. Kirley's has one of the best reputations of any massachusetts BGE dealer. [p]still, in massachusetts where gas is king, it doesn't take much to be the best BGE dealer![p]

    I don't know if anyone but Stike and I remember, but there was a guy on this board (last fall) who bought his first Egg from Fred.[p]Fred was maybe moving up to an XL, I don't remember but this guy found out Fred was getting a new Egg and was able to buy the old one from him for a good price.

    Essex County,[p]Fred's Franks is also listed as a vendor of lump on the Wicked Good website. Last year I was up there from D.C. and tried to find him - unfortunately I had no idea that his hours and days were limited and I had expected a full-time operation. There was no sign of him anywhere and only because I asked a jogger did I find out Fred's hours. Ended up getting the lump in Roslindale instead.

    stike,[p]Bought my large from Kirley. I thought they handled the sale great, prices were fair and good customer service (let me exchange the sides, which I bought 6 mos prior for a table. Also helped my wife, who knows nothing about the bge other than she likes the food I make on it, buy a mini as a suprise gift for me).[p]I would highly recommend Kirley for a local dealer.[p]Bean town

    stike,
    Bought my egg also from Kirley. I am actually very good friends with the owners Jeff and Eric. Top shelf guys and a great new showroom which has recently been done over. Very knowledgable individuals who do know their stuff.

    stike,[p]they both own and cook on them regularly. I've done business with them for a loooong time. Great guys. Sometimes a little rushed but know their stuff.[p]

    Sundow,
    this may be too far down the list for you to see...
    they should know that, as far as i can tell from the 'vibe' here on the forum, that they have the best reputation of any NH or MA dealer (at least as far as what's been shared on the forum by customers).[p]

    stike,
    My family has eaten many egg cooked meals at their homes. It was actually after eating food of their own eggs that I went and purchased one myself.
