First Cook Done... Getting Ready for Second Cook Tonight

havertyj

I did our fifth grill this evening. Got temperature up to 600 - 650. Actually, it went hotter than that and scrambled to get it back down to be able to do steak. Turned out great!

I wrote it up on my blog page too with pictures. Still a newbie, but loving my Big Green Egg!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day. Have a  great rest of the week!

Thank you! Yes, it did not even occur to me that the temperature gauge could go past the highest mark. Lots of fire and fire coming out the the top of the Egg too.
