Gaskets and other pb
I've had my green egg for about 10 yrs and love it, but lately.....
I left the egg closed with top and bottom vents open to burn out old charcoal.
When i came outside my green egg cyprus table was burning next to the closed egg????????
The gaskets had melted together so I had to pour self light charcol down the top , start a fire and finall open the egg
I got a table made with a concrete top and had a stove gasket put on the bottom but it came off after several times cooking.
I went to the local green egg store today bought the green egg gasket that they said was "remove the backing and put it on"
when i read the instructions it says use" 3m super 77" where the heck do you get 3m supper 77 and why doesn't come with the gasket?
Oh did I mention, the hairline crack in the egg base, don't think that will become a problem????
I did go out an commit heresy, bought a weber gas grill as a back up. My daughters birthday i Fri and I have to cook steaks, wonder how
they will do on a gas grill ,I,forgot how to use one.
Thanks for any help finding glue- 3m super 77

You should be able to find 3m 77 (or whatever it is called) in crafts stores like Michaels.

They sell the 3m 77 at my local Ace Hardware. Just ask at your local hardware store."Pork so tender you can pull it with a spoon." ~Spoon

Thanks,
I don't want to have to use a weber gas grill, but it is a real nice one.
(bought to have something for veggies while I used the egg for meats)

You can still use the egg without a gasket and with a crack, but if you have to have a gasser Weber makes a nice one!"Pork so tender you can pull it with a spoon." ~Spoon

I used simple contact cement. You can get it in a couple ounce tube to gallon size. Spray on adhesive is not realyl needed for such a small area.
