@hans61 LOL....I was just thinking of that thread after reading this one and couldn't remember if it was from this forum or another forum I was at before getting the BGE. That is so classic!!Just bought an Egg? Here is what you get to look forward to now:
Plate Setter, FlameBoss 200, Spider, PSWOO-CI, Additional Rig Shelf for dome cooking, Thermapen, iGrill2, Cast Iron, Blackstone, Cooking Accessories for the Blackstone, Cover for the Egg and the Blackstone, shopping for Rub like a fine wine or IPA, and a new fascination with lump and what brand is the best-all to be debated every Friday Night. Next desires-Joetisceriie, Adjustable Rig, Grillmates, table and more eggs

It is not possible to boil water in a BGE. The maximum theoretical temperature one may achieve on a BGE is 211F at sea level. This is below the boiling point of water.

Forget it. I'm going to try the reverse boil method. Read it on another forum.------------------------------

What would our world be without sarcasm opportunities! The good news, is that the question usually gets answered PRIOR to the sarcasm kicking in.Just bought an Egg? Here is what you get to look forward to now:

Try a drip pan with a layer of salt. That should keep it from running out the vent, but might raise the boiling point a bit. Use more lump.buzd504 said:I tried to boil water in my BGE, but water kept leaking out of the bottom vent.
