    keith,
    Apparently, it's only a 4 step program so far. Large, medium, small, mini. The 4th step is on the way, super large, or sumpin' like that.

    keith,
    Hi, my name's Doc and I'm an eggaholic. I egg many times a week and the last time I egged was only 10 hours ago. I have tried not egging to no avail. I have gone to restaurants and pubs to meet my need for grilled food but it just isn't the same. Their ribs have been cooked in an oven and briefly introduced to some sort of flame - but obviously not charcoal. Fried chicken ... I don't think so. Even my favorite pub where I used to go for a hamburger fix isn't meeting my needs anymore. The last time I was there the burger tasted of being cooked over gas. Oh, the humanity.[p]I find myself heading over to the local membership club for large packages of wings, ,breasts, salmon, ribs, pork loins, and (shame beyond shame) whole tenderloins. I keep spices and herbs secreted in my cabinets, (at least I am keeping them away from the children) and often formulate rubs and sauces for my habit.[p]Oh, it started innocently enough. A friend introduced me to the egg and I began to look at my gasser with a jaundiced eye. Sure enough, I was hooked and headed down the path to hard core egg addiction. I soon found myself making calls to people who could get me a "deal" on an egg and I soon found myself buying a large. That seemed to satifsy my grilling needs for a while but, no ... that wasn't enough. The "need" to cook more than one thing at the time at different temperatures seemed to be a good reason to buy another egg and I soon found myself the proud owner of a small ... you know, just for those times when I was cooking for just my wife and I or when we had friends over and I had to make more than just ribs. (Last night I did chicken breasts on the large and baked potatoes and a pot of baked beans on the small.)[p]I try to hide my addiction but cannot. When I come in from "going out to the deck to read", my wife notices the smoke smell on my clothes. My mom said something about my problem when she found me in her back yard cutting up some fallen pecan branches for "just a little flavor". Yes, I know all the catch words, phrases, and excuses.[p]Like others, I find myself talking about the egg and sharing the goods cooked on it. Oh, dear lord, I'm becoming a pusher! I urge others to cook on the egg.[p]I wish I was ashamed.

  • FatDog,[p]Try breaking a lid. But I doubt it will work - it's just an excuse to go ahead and install the Guru and rebuild the table during the outage.
