An observation from the GWN - GTA....
There has certainly been more marketing awareness of BGE products since the ownership - management changes. Personally, I still believe that word of mouth has lead to the success of this product.
With the exc…
Fast or Safe. Pick one.
I have a mapp torch which is great but you also get a great fireworks show.
Before the mapp torch I used cooking oil and paper towel. I found it to be fairly quick and very safe because I could close the dome until it go…
At Steve - got crazy busy in December this year, car died, bought new car, and ended up buying our tree from the local greenhouse. Things start getting better in March. (gotta a daughter in University now - it's work work work)
Cheers,

CANMAN1976 - I've lived in the Toronto my entire life and know it really well. Including the spots you mention - the Sheraton Centre and Phil's BBQ.
Ironically my wife and her girl friend are going to Bon Jovi at the ACC on Feb 17. I suspect that yo…
I originally had 1 large and 1 small and I was really happy with that. I thought it offered the most versatility. Then I got a large for my wife and I've found that we rarely use the small any more.
I love being able to have two eggs going at differ…
Gaskets are over rated.
Although if BGE thinks there should be one within the design, then they should make sure that eggs are delivered with a quality gasket.
Michael
Forgot about some of those...
I too have fire wires and one of those fancy vertical chicken stands - BOTH of which I've never used.

I agree with Buckwoody on the drumstick racks - I use them a lot and I love the way they crispup the drumstic…
I like the thermapen, gloves, map torch, plate setter, v-rack, pizza stone with copper pipe for spacers, CI grill (all for different things, but in that order). I have a dutch oven but haven;t used it yet.
I hate the 3 tier stacker - in order to f…
Also note that MAPP burns hotter so your lump is ready faster. (ie: you don't have to use as much as you would if you were using propane) I use 1 cannister per 6 months.
I like looking at the classic view of the original forum - being able to see all common posts grouped together in a logical format AND being able to see everyone that has responded.
I also like being able to see the camera icon - I'm glad to hear t…
Just checking things out.
This place feels foreign - does it come with a Bescherelle?
I find posts very random - whereas the classic view of the forum is much more structured.
A test pic - just for fun.
Michael
OK so I can't just copy a pic over.
It saves insert image and prompts you for a url - why can't I do a search from there. Do I have to copy the url from another source like photobucket?
I see now how to attach a pic - (below) I don't recall if that …
Once again another great set of pics Gary. I almost felt like I was there.
I am so happy to see so many people getting together for my birthday. I mean Pittsburgh Fest.
I am sorry now that I didn't attend. There were many familiar and friendly…
S&P - nothing fancy - but you could use what ever you wanted.
The best hand in bread dough we had was with Birkshire ham. If you ever
get a chance, I'd recommend that you try it.
Michael
For your second fresh ham, you may want to try ham in bread dough...
We use a light rye, but you could use whatever you'd like.
Wrap ham with the bread dough...
Place on egg - pizza stone.
Cook at 350 until done.
The ham stays m…
Thanks Molly...
I spent hours searching for Spanish music to play during Fiesta Tiki while the Mariachi band wasn't playing.
I kept coming across Pedro Capo - I was (am) very impressed with this guy. Lots of emotion, lots of enthusiasm, a good…
Anke, Karin and I did the cooks on the eggs, friends helped by bringing non egged cooks. Thank goodness for multiple eggs. It took a couple days but it was a blast.
Thanks for watching.
Michael
My eggs like being naked - commando. (Something about feeling free.) Ha ha!
The biggest challenge is projecting how much lump to use as I tend (in the shut down process) to burn more lump without gaskets.
Michael
It was great because it kept the fish together so you didn't have to worry about the skin sticking to the grill, etc. And it was much easier to pick everything off the grill in one piece.
I'd do it again.
