I enjoy sticking my nose over the open BGE top and getting a whiff. Of course, this is after the white crap has burned off. That is the best smell to me. HAHA wasn't trying to be creepy

    I can relate to this. One of the best smells in the world to me is when one of the big units is burning oak and pecan wood. Nothing quite like it.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    Sounds like a good way to trim the nose hairs!  And eyebrows. 

    But, it does smell good!

    Every time I see one of these... I just can't wait till March when Tyler builds my Shirley. This is like waiting to graduate High School. That last 6 months lasts forever.

    Nothing smells better than charcoal ready to cook on except maybe ......oh wait that was new cars and something else from the mind of Stephen King...
