The swordfish did look spectacular.

The pig came from Wagner Meats and was $2.89/lb. I believe their pricing varies depending on size. http://www.wagnersmeats.com/ We rented the rig from ABC rentals. Had to go to Baltimore to get it. It was a POS and needed some adjustments for …

We're cooking at a friend's house who does not have an egg. He's been wanting to spit roast one for awhile so I'm helping out. Should be fun.

In Portuguese, that is called "Picanha". I cooked one myself this weekend. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picanha

Make sure you have enough room on the sides, between the egg and the table. Can't really tell from your picture but it looks mighty close. Folks here have posted pictures of tables that caught fire because the egg did not have enough room.

I have the flip 3 ring for my XL. Its good if you're cooking lots of ribs or direct with a lot of space between the grill and the lump. As for fitting more butts or briskets by stacking, this becomes trickier. The dome is tall enough to handle la…

Definitely possible. I did a 13# in 2 hours a few months ago. I had the same reaction as you but in the end, all the proper temps were hit and it was delicious.

Is that a steak on your cutting board or are you just happy to see me?

Will do RRP. I just tented the top to keep that from burning.

I've never calibrated the dome thermometer. I was thinking about it a while back and read the discussion on here about it. It's been accurate for my other cooks (butts and briskets) so I never did. The turkey turned out really juicy and everyone …

I got a thermopen. Breast reading 186 and thighs are 176. Juices are clear. It's only a 14 pounder in a XL egg. Maybe that has something to do with it. But you guys are right, it does seem fast.

Thanks for the explanation. To who ever emailed me directly, the emails went to my spam folder and I deleted them by accident. Please feel free to email again.

Thanks for the tips. Looks like the top band slipped some. I transfered the lump into my old charcoal grill and let it burn there.

The fire is holding at 600. What's the best way to cool it off without being able to close the lid?

My XL is named Sputnik. My wife is not pleased with this and accuses me of being a commie.

Good to know. Thanks.

I have an XL. I love it and often use it for just my wife and I. There are ways to conserve lump on both the L and XL if that's something you're concerned with. As Photo Egg put it, it is a grilling machine. Either one you get, you won't be disappoi…

Does the butt dripping on the brisket affect its taste?
-
Feasting on Waves was a good show too.

If you often grill for large groups, get the XL. I have one and love it. I grill on it for my friends on weekends but during the week its just my wife and I and it works great. There's no such thing as too big. Anyone who says so is just jealous. …

Thanks guys. Appreciate the help.

Rat Pack and Bossa Nova.

Similar to Arlington, there is also Bethesda, MD. It has a metro stop and plenty of restaurants/bars all within walking distance. 15 mins down Wisconsin Ave and you're in the city. Pricing is comparable to Arlington. http://maps.google.com/maps?u…

I fit the XL in my Acura sedan, which is basically an Accord. Though it had to be removed from the box and I used the trunk for the lid and the back seat for the main part on its side. Getting it out of the car most certainly will require two peo…

If Rockville, MD is not too far for you, there's a Latin market on Rockville Pike called Las Americas. I go there all the time. They have great hanger steak, various sausages, rib (pork and beef) etc. Only problem is if you don't speak Spanish, orde…
