    Oh cool - I work over in Norcross so not far at all. I believe @JRWhitee plays a little golf as well and probably some other local eggheads. Would be cool to get a group together some time and play, and cook!

    @fence0407 now you're talking. I bet we could scare up a good group. A Friday or Saturday morning tee time, fire up the egg(s) around 1:00ish and enjoy the bourbon and whatever we cook.

    Absolutely - I think that'd be a good time. I love to golf and all, but the winter weather isn't exactly my favorite to be out in.

  • Hi all,
    How do you cook the Burgers, I ask as I have only used my large BGE twice, I have the grill extensions and other kit from the Ceramic shop. So please enlighten me.
    Many thanks

    Welcome Michael! I normally cook burgers direct at 500 degrees. Closer the fire is better than having them up high in the dome above the felt line. You'll want to just season them with whatever dry rub or marinade you like - salt and pepper works just fine. Throw them on the grill for about 5-6 minutes a side. Pull them off and check that the internal temperature is what you want. They're pretty easy!

    How close to the fire you will be cooking will vary by egg type and how much charcoal you put in.  I do mine around 550* raised direct in my medium. The temp tends to climb while cooking from the grease and opening the lid to flip them.  First time out, I'd do 3 minutes a side and check them. If they aren't done an extra flip is fine. 5-6 minutes a side would result in well done burgers on my set-up.    Just don't squish them while cooking.

    When I add cheese, I add it about 2 minutes after the flip depending on the cheese.  If the cheese is hard to melt, I add it 1 minute after flipping.

  • Thanks,I have a large BGE and will give them a go.

    looks good - never heard of DUKES mayo before . . better than hellmanns?


    Dukes is primarily a Southern mayo, but I bought mine here in IL at Wally World. Where it differs is it uses no sugar and IMHO has more twang, but I like it!

    I use dukes.for and salad mayo..mac, potato etc. And helm and for sammichs.
    Grew up on Helmans. I.slather my turkey in dukes.and cook breast side.down.

    I would much rather be able to say I was glad I did than wished I had........
