regarding the large and medium egg. I ended up with a demo large egg (looked perfect to me), starter package, stand, and tax included for $600. Not bad I guess. But anyway, after looking at the two in person, I'm glad I went with the large, and thus didn't mind paying the extra $175 or so. The medium looked great too, but I felt in due time I'd need the extra space, especially when smoking food for a long period of time. One last question---I've never cooked a pizza on the egg before. Do most of you cook on a stone or simply just grill it like you would anything else?
Thanks and its great to finally have a BGE of my own. I'm sure I'll be talking to many of y'all soon.

Some people use stones and some use the airbake pans on the grid. I prefer a stone. To each his own I guess.

I think this is the way most people do it, but there are lots of methods... And the learning curve is fun!! -
I use the Airbake pan, works well and you don't need a peel. -RP

Good choice and the price sounds good also consider all that you got with it.
I'm only one, started with the large but now also have a medl. sm.& mini. The large is still my favorite.

There are more ways to do things than there are posters on this forum! Most work well and all work well for the poster!
I like to use a plate setter legs down with a pizza stone elevated on the little green feet that came to go under your grill. This gives about an inch of air between setter and stone. I have better luck with 350 temps than 500 temps.
There was a good thread on pizzas in the last couple days.
