@Big_Green_Craig I'm sorry you disagreed with my previous comment. What is it you disagree with? Is it that you don't think this forum is about helping people? Or is it that you think being a condecending douche is cool?1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC

It might be Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD), @Grillin_beers . See the link provided above. Not saying it is for sure, because I'm not a doctor, but I did stay at a holiday inn express last night.

I don't know Big Green Craig personally, but he brush he is being painted with here is not good. In today's society so many people want to be important, they want to feel like they matter, or are extra special. The truth is if you want to matter and want to be special then reach out and lend a hand. There are many of you on this forum who have been ever so kind in giving me advice and pointing me in the right direction. The truth is ladies and gentlemen The apostle Paul said it best in Philippians chapter 2 Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Well that's my pastoral rant for the day.XL BGE, KJ classic, Joe Jr, UDS x2 -

Berating, personal attacks and name calling. Yet, I'm still supposed to help?! WTF ever... -

@Dyal_SC I agree. I stayed in a holiday inn express a couple of months ago(I have a client in the middle of nowhere) does that count?1 large BGE, Spartanburg SC

All joking aside...French fries are not THAT easy to make. I mean, anyone can cut up a tater and throw it in the fryer...but just like many things there is a technique to making them good.
I think five guys has some of the best fries and they pretty much follow the Serious Eats method. Cut, soaked, pre-cooked, cooked.

Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -
Yep, soaking and two sessions in hot oil is important. Cutting a potato up and tossing in oil will not produce the best fries. Science again guys...They/Them

Big_Green_Craig said:I disagreed because I get berated through every post in this forum. I didn't even start this thread, yet I'm the topic. People hate me here and I'm supposed to help?! Right...
Berating, personal attacks and name calling. Yet, I'm still supposed to help?! WTF ever...
The personal attacks and name calling are uncalled for in my opinion, but that is the way it is not just here but on a lot of forums.
I know you can cook, and I have seen some great meals on your site that I couldn't come close to replicating.
I am not sure what you are going through personally and professionally relating to BGE. It may be as simple as you are feeling unappreciated by BGE because you have convinced a lot of people to buy their product or as complex as them refusing to work with you etc. I really have no idea, and it isn't any of my business.
I wish the best for you. Keep cooking and doing what you love. The rest will work itself it out.Louisville, GA - 2 Large BGE's -
NPD? Weak cheddar. I think he's got empathy....for all of you.
This thread makes me feel good about myself.
The jealousy and envy towards BGC reeks, and it takes alot to stimulate my olfactory receptors. You've got VI's son cazzy, who inherited the same ego stroking needs, and his minions(too many to list), who are unable to think independently.
If there were a throwdown between all of the assclown haters and BGC. BGC would stand tall when the dust settles.
Isn't this look-at-me attitude on fb, twitter, ig etc., a cultural issue? It's all about how many likes one can get. You can all crucify Craig, but I bet the majority of hipocrit haters do the same on their fb page.BrandonQuad Cities

What? You didn't like Craig's? You seem to be so far up his ass that you could taste it!
i don't have a problem with him, but damn! Yall In love? -

Nope.
No, not anywhere even close to his ass, but choose to think independently.
And no, he's not my type. I'm a bear, and prefer an otter.
Appreciate your concern.BrandonQuad Cities

Oh, I'm not concerned. I don't give not one single fvck.
I have independently decided that I find this Sh!t absolutely hilarious, more so when I'm drinking.

I apparently also like double negatives.
I do give not one single fvck.
Alternatively, I don't give one single fvck.
This is fun. -

I know you're just being a lil b!tch and stirring the pot, so don't think you're that slick. I just can't imagine anyone sucking someone off this hard, so that is the only thing that makes sense to me.Just a hack that makes some $hitty BBQ.... -

I too wish you no ill will. In fact I wish you the opposite. However I think it is important to realize that on this forum, for every "attack" there are 100 acts of generosity or kindness. You've managed to find your way into the 1%. That's not on other forum members - that's on you. You clearly are driven to set yourself apart and stand out. Good on you. I'm happy to just be included in this elite corps of outdoor gourmets. However, there are definitely some here who stand out even among this elite crowd without alienating a bunch of people. So, the short answer is "Yes. You are supposed to help." That's what people do here. Look at old posts for help. Ask for help. Receive help. Give help. That's what the elite do here as well. They just do it better or more often than most. If that had been your absolute number one priority from the start we wouldn't have this mess.XXL BGE, Karebecue, Klose BYC, Chargiller Akorn Kamado, Weber Smokey Mountain, Grand Turbo gasser, Weber Smoky Joe, and the wheelbarrow that my grandfather used to cook steaks from his cattle
