Half the people on here don’t cook on BGE’s or even Komados. Stick around and have some fun with us. 

Many don’t even cook at all!!

my point in saying that @bjeans is that I am sure  you would still be welcome here, no matter what you cooked on. 

BUT... there’s no such thing as “smaller egg, fewer sparks”. It just takes *A* spark.

Do what you feel is enjoyable, otherwise there is no point. Don’t let the rest of us clowns talk you into anything else. It’s your money, time, house, etc.

I say get a Blackstone.  This is actually an Egg&Blackstone forum, with honorable mention for Rocco Box and Insta-Pot ..... or folks like me.  I eat out everyday and use the microwave exclusively at home.

Go with your gut. You’ll never be comfortable if you don’t. I have both of mine on wooden decks and my lake house is surrounded by trees. I freaked one night when a shower of ashes came blowing out thru the bottom screen due to using the end of a bag of RO. This was right after seeing all the pics and stories on here about the fires users had.

For sure stick around and have some fun with us..

Okay, I will look into a Blackstone - or something, gee. Squirrels ate the wires - not hose - in our last Weber gas grill. I thought about a very small pellet grill for a minute. 

Meanwhile, I have an electric Farberware Open Hearth Broiler and rotisserie that I bought on unused on ebay a while back, just like my parents’ when I was a kid. I only used it a couple times to make Peruvian spiced rotisserie chicken, which was fall-off-the-bone tender with crispy skin, though of course doesn’t compare to the that great egg flavor. I also tried it skinless and the outer part of the meat crisped up nicely. Oh - it has a kabob attachment too.

Maybe I’ll put it outside on the Challenger for steaks and make pretend. 

Again, thanks everyone for the help, options, pricing info, friendliness. 

BTW, tried to post a couple days ago but kept getting a weird message. The egg and all its stuff was picked up this morning by a couple who drove a few hours to get everything. As excited as the husband was, it made it easier to give it up. Apparently his relatives are all Traeger grill people, but he wanted the journey as much as the destination. I hope he joins in here.

I sold two larges recently for $600 each. 

Thank you - Eggs only? 

Each had a nest, daisy wheel, upgraded Rutland gasket, and cap. One had a platesetter with it, the other a woo and a pizza stone. One had been used a dozen times, the other had a brand new firebox, fire ring, and charcoal grate. I cleaned them up so they looked brand new. So often I see people list dirty grills. A solid cleaning goes a really long way.

Great commercial - we might visit one (Traeger). 

Made burgers on the Farberware Open Hearth Broiler last night. Fun, fast, easy. But. Well, you know.

Our egg went home with its adopted owners. It looked excited to go for a ride (their photo). I was pretty obsessive about scraping the grids, and ran them and the Woo, extender, etc. through the dishwasher. And it had a cover, so stayed clean. Bye egg!
