    For me it's a life style. I love my eggs and make sure everyone knows it!! ;):) I guess that makes me a pusher. :laugh: :laugh:

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say no. At first it was a fascination with the egg and all of it's quirks and subtle nuances, but any more it's simply the way I prepare my food. I don't even use my stove or oven any more and only use the microwave to reheat things. I will cook indoors to make toast, but thats about it. I like cookin outdoors with a cool refreshing adult beverage, playin with the doggers and just enjoying being outdoors. Hobby- not so much. Way of life, Yep. :)

    Hobby?....fades to visions of... Nature Boy's first email, ChefWil's encouragement, numerous Egger's support.... Hobby?,...Yeah, a Hell of a Hobby.

  • After some thought...And reading responses...
    I guess I fall into a life-style sort of thing. Not sure I can say that cooking is a hobby, as it is more of a necessity...That I love :woohoo: ! Okay, I’ve done some catering too, but mostly it is my love of good food and not much else!
    I’ve been cooking for 54 - 55 years and it has become a major passion of mine!
    The Egg (even my O & M kitchen range, for that fact) has / have become an extension of my passion, for sure, but even "BE" (Before Egg) I can say I have always enjoyed cooking with fire!

    It's been forever, you must have been busy at work & play.

    Been wondering about you. Wondering how that dental work came out and some other questions about the procedure.

    Much more than a hobby, playing with fire and egging and sharing food is a passion with me.
    I'm designing and building my own outdoor cooking islands, that's my hobby.

    Had several Kamado ovens from Japan in early 70's. Missed them until I got a LBGE last August. Cook three or four days a week on egg and read forum daily looking for tips, ideas and recipes. My number 1 hobby.
