    Cheers Sgt, I was going to ask if it fits the xl but I see by your tag line you have one.
    Yep, the XL 2-tier is a 24" main grate and an 18" upper grate. 
    Anyone have any pics of meat and veggies on the two tier rack.
    I had some and thought I uploaded them but didn't.  There is a ton of room and it's useful as all can be.  Here is a pic of a pork shoulder just under 9 lbs sitting on a V-Rack with room under the top grate.

    This pic answered the question I had.  I was hoping you could use this rack with the platesetter for low and slows.

    I've been eyeing one of these, but my money evaporated somewhere.  I hope my wife starts anniversary shopping soon and picks one up for me.  Did you hear that Franco?  Get another production underway!

    I ordered mine earlier this week.  I'm so excited, I feel like a fat man staring at a an all you can eat prime rib buffet!

    This was my first time ordering from CGW and I must say it was an excellent experience.  They will definitely be getting more of my business.

    Emails with tracking numbers have begun, stay tuned and check your emails.

    Those of you that have ordered recently...within a day or 2 ago, this will be a true test of patience for you, as we are several weeks away...several meaning 3-7 wks.

    Those of you that will be receiving your racks early next wk, please post pics and feed back.  Thank you very much.

    Whoo Hoo! I had a present on my porch today when I woke up!! That's right my SWING RACK! I got an email today from Franco that it was delivered, so I ran down there and there she was! Then he called and walked me through the SIMPLE assembly and it's sitting on my egg as I type this! Can't wait to cook tonight, my head is just swimming with ideas of what to cook! Here's a pic of the open box that is the top rack, post, and the 2 Allen wrench tools with T handle, bottom rack is below paper. Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos

    That is just plain Wrong! :-w  Of course he may have called you just because you are a girl (auto shop experience being unknown to him) ;)  and needed help putting it together!  :D

    I'm sorry! I know it's hard to wait, I just happen to live in Indy which has a FedEx Hub. All boxes hipped on the ears coast go through Kentucky so nice I am so close it only takes about a day for me, if something is shipped from west coast it takes forever.

    I saw someone posting theirs on Instagram. If you haven't joined Instagram, you can search by hash tag #BigGreenEgg or even #BGE and fine several BGE user pics. Twitter as well. FYI

    Got home from work and got th email from Franco.  Looked at the tracking info and it said "delivered"!!   As I hurried to the front door I felt like a kid running down the stairs on Christmas morning.

     

    Have other plans this evening but can wait to break this thing in on Saturday.

     

     

    It looks great Franco.  Thanks for everything.

    I smell that you oiled it up already but do you have any advice on seasoning the grate before cooking on it?

    @dave1976 just using it seasons it. No need to preseason. They've already been oiled with a veggie oil.

    He said that to spray it with Pam or another spray or to brush with oil and let it heat up like that.

    Hmmmm...... So I'm sitting here out-of-pocket waiting for the shaft kit.  That's OK.  I love you CGW!  I could express that love in public if you had T-shirts.

    Maybe a shirt with an angled grate view that says "this is a rack" :)) (female shirt of course)
