Frozen chicken nuggets on the BGE?

Our family's oven died 2 weeks ago, so my wife has been experimenting
on our Weber Summit gas grill on quick meals for the kids (chicken
nuggets, fish sticks, corn, even pasta). I of course, have been experimenting with our large BGE which she let me have a month ago on our anniversary. She is a little wary of the egg (I told her about flashback), but not of the food that comes off of it.
Tonight while I was waiting for the egg to warm up for pork chops at
300, she mentioned that she was going to "cook" my 6 year old's Tyson
frozen chicken nuggets in the microwave. I had tried a wax cube under
the charcoal grate (yes, through the bottom vent) to light the Wicked Good lump and had it started in 10 minutes! Monday night it took 2 cubes and 1 Green Egg square 45 minutes to get that same lump started!
She didn't want to cook the nuggets in the rain on the Weber so I suggested the egg. She said 400 degrees for 10 minutes and good luck.
I put the frozen nuggets directly on the grid and turned them afte 5 minutes, took them out in 10 @ onto Charles' plate, and went on to the
pork chops.
At dinner I asked Charles how his nuggets were and he announced that they were better than off the Weber or out of the oven! My wife was
surprised and had to try one. She announced that that darned egg makes everything taste better! Even boring chicken nuggets.
And there you have it. Need I say more.[p]Grillnut

grillnut at Norcross Ace Hardware,
Just curious.......I was wondering how your BGE activity is at your new dealership. Selling any eggs, supplies, etc.?

grillnut at Norcross Ace Hardware,[p]See, THAT is why you don't tell your wife about flashback! Mine has no idea. ;~) But she also doesn't use my egg. [p]I'm not really surprised at the outcome of the nuggets, having seen several breaded chicken recipes on here. Glad your kid loved the nuggets!
