    I haven't had mine very long either, but I'm sure enjoying it.  This site costs me more $ than my gun forum!

    Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

    Congrats on the new family member, great looking steak and you also need a Smoke Wear Top and Thermo!

    I'm only hungry when I'm awake!

    Apartment dweller here. This would be PERFECT to take out in the parking spot my motorcycle is in and just do some cooking!! Have you done a rack of ribs on it yet? If so how'd they come out. Hoping next year to be out of the apartment world and I'll get a large, but until then, this might just be the ticket!

    I did a rack on the MM just because last week.  They turned out fine!  In fact I did one for my Sis n Law and 2 for us (on the LBGE)  I gave away the MM ribs account they looked the best.

    Good move on the Smokeware cap. They are a local company about 15 miles from me. I need to get out there sometime and visit them.

    Nice, let me know how your spider fits. Mine hits the basket and seems like it doesn’t work as well as the larger models. Sent a note to ceramic grill store about it but haven’t heard back

     I really like how the plate setter fits inside the woo (wouldn’t have known if I hadn’t read here). Just cooked my first saint Louis style ribs a little while ago...turbo.

    You are right about the spider. It also won’t fit on top of the grate with the woo in...that’s how I do pizzas on my other egg. Interesting...
