First Real Test = Amazed

Greetings. I've had my LBGE for since mid May and did my first L&S. I'm amazed at how efficient the BGE is. I filled the firebox 3/4 with RO and got it started Saturday night at 9 pm. I put the brisket on at 10 pm for 12 hours, ribs on an hour after for 5 hours, and then cranked the heat up to roast corn and asparagus after the ribs were done. I cooked for 18-19 hours without adding more lump....craziness I tell you, craziness.

Good stuff and congrats on the cook. The BGE is a very efficient smoking machine.

Great results for sure... Now if you had been running on Rockwood you would have been good for at least triple that time..

Efficiency is a virtue !!!  I love my Big Green Eggs !!!!

That was one of the selling points for the BGE for me. But, 3 years later, I'm using more lump than ever. Mainly, because I'm using the egg several times a week instead of once a week.

@pescadorzih I find myself in the same place, should have stocked up on Royal Oak when they had the sale last time!
