When one gets a BGE......

edited November -1 in EggHead Forum
...the art of cooking is raised to a new level. Not to mention the taste buds having a new experience.![p][p]I have lurked here for about a year. When the wife asked what I wanted for Christmas - BGE, large - please.[p][p]Got the BGE in November - she said I had to wait 'till Christmas to use it. Ignore mode.[p][p]And the wife - and the kids - are glad I did not wait. Such food - ribs, Pulled Pork, two turkeys (got brave and did the Thanksgiving Day bird on it - the neighbors, and family, gave rave reviews!)[p][p]This BGE is the poop - have tried for many years (and many ways) to cook the way I want to - long, low and slow.[p][p]I have found the answer in the BGE - and all the great advice and recipes on this forum. Thanks to all of you - and may your Holidays be the best![p][p]Pork .......RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![p]LVM

    LasVegasMac,
    ah, another convert!
    I see you have found the wonders of pork on Mr Egg.
    Sounds like you have visited with turkey too. Chicken?
    Tried pizza yet?
    How about fish?
    Steaks and other beef recipes will knock your socks off!
    There are deserts, smoked things like nuts and olives, chili and and and and...
    Mac, you're just at the beginning of a whole new world out there! Welcome to the other side of existing on this planet!

    LasVegasMac,
    I noticed the same thing...the level of expectation in food, both at home and when dining out, has gone to a new level.
    But, there's no need to lurk around here. Visit and cook often!

    vegas slim,
    Much thanks for the welcome words.[p][p]I have been doing nothing but following the advice here - great to have such a resource![p][p]Ah, yes, the dry heat. Walking out the patio door, it's about 5 steps to the BGE. Another 20 steps to fall in the pool![p][p]LVM
