Hi,
Doing T-bones tonight with corn on the cob. Have never cooked corn on the cob so need to know how?????? plus time and temp.
A very warm 108°, a wonderful night to cook on Mr. Egg and watch the full moon come up.
Wishing all a great weekend.
Thanks,
New Bob

    New Bob, we're thinking of purchasing an Egg. How long have you had yours and do you absolutely love cooking on it?

    Tom,
    I bought Mr. Egg three months ago, I am not the worlds best and for me there is a learning curve. This is the best forum with the most helpful people you will ever find. I have done some so so cooks, (my fault, not Mr. Egg) I have also had a couple of Killer T-bones the other night and will be doing it again tonight. I like toys and gadgets, I love interacting with Mr. Egg and if I ever leave where I'm living he goes with me. I also purchased a mini egg, guess I am hooked.
    If you like great food and don't mind a mishap now and then,like to interact with your toys and have the support of a great group of people, "get yourself an egg"
    Best of luck to you no matter what you decide.

    New Bob,
    My apologies for the multiple posts, not sure how that happened. I am embarrased. (red faced) Yes, it will probably happen again. (frown)

    New Bob, Thanks for the info. We're going to head up to Tampa tomorrow and take a look at them one more time. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to actually see anything cooked on them, but reading this web site has made us quite interested. Right now I have a Webber, which is very difficult to control the temp. Sometimes the food comes off great, other times a bit done. If I do buy one, I think I'll go with the large, not really that much more $$$. Thanks again, Tom

    New Bob, I have never seen 108 on the thermometer..Must be sumptin. We had 104 one time!
    Just lay em on the asphalt in the husk and they will be ready in about 3 hours.
    Been some posts down the threads..but I peel back the husk's after soaking em good, and strip the silks, olive oil, or butter and salt and seal em back up again. Roast time is about half hour to 45 minutes at 350F. Roll em over if you want. Or wrap em in foil with no leaf.
    Easy cook.

    Tom,
    I bought the large because of the recommendations of this forum, I am single and could have gotten by with something smaller. I am very happy that I took the advise and purchased the large. I felt just like you that the price between the medium and large was not that much more and I like to have space no matter what it is. Please let us know if you need more information or help, you won't find a better place to support you through the learing curve.

    New Bob,
    Check earlier this week...6/2/01 for a thread on the corn.
    C-W's right on the mark again. But then we've all come to expect that.

    Shelby,
    Thanks for helping out. I didn't see your post till this morning but enjoyed reading them. I ended up soaking the corn in water then put some butter and pepper on them, wrapped in foil (not all the husk was on the corn) and cooked about 30 min./300°. It was really good and I can't wait to try it direct.
