Burned up the gasket on my mini doing pizzas last week. The store I work at has never managed to get the nomex for the mini and I didnt feel like trimming a large one, so I decided to try out a Rutland. I got the 5/16 and it is perfect. Just got it glued down. I'll probably give it a try wednesday. If it all works out well I'll be installing the 5/8 I got on my large is a couple weeks.

where does a person get nomex or rutland at, can you get it online?

The Nomex comes from Big Green Egg, you can get it from a dealer or order it online. The Rutland can be found at some hardware stores, fireplace stores, or online. I got my Rutland's from Amazon.com, with shipping the price was the same as retail at a local hardware store, but the owner of the local store was a jerk.

I think RRP sells rutland too. I just put on my rutland and had my first cook this weekend. Had a 10# brisket then did ribs at the same time. It was rock solid. Need to do a high heat cook to see if it works better then my last nomex gasket.

I believe I read in one of the previous threads on this subject that the Rutland gasket is not safe for food applications. Thoughts on this?

you might want to read this for yourself and then decide.

I installed the Rutland kit from RRP a few cooks ago and never looked back.
I have done some low and slows with no smoke leak, some high temp steaks with no charred gasket also a pizza and the gasket still looks great.
The instructions are perfect and easy to follow.
Highly recommend doing this gasket
