I'm finally getting a big green egg.  Put this together last week to hold it.  Now I am debating gettingn a cover.  Do you guys bother covering your table/egg?

    I keep a "cover" on my table. It's just a big tarp from Home Depot.  I don't know how important it actually is.

    The egg doesn't need a cover to protect it. A cover will keep dust and pollen off it, which may be a concern depending on where you live.  A cover will provide some protection to the table and the items stored on the table.

    In cooking, often we implement steps for which we have no explanations other than ‘that’s what everybody else does’ or ‘that’s what I have been told.’  Dare to think for yourself.

    Welcome aboard and enjoy the journey.  Nice job with your table.  I don't have a table, but make sure you have a good air gap under your BGE (even if using pavers) when you install it.  That base gets quite hot as you can imagine.

    Thanks for the heads up.  I am planning on picking up a table nest with it.

    Nice job and congrats on getting the Egg.  I have been working on my tables and area and the eggs are being delivered tomorrow.  Can't wait.
