Hello everyone, what a great site with lots of good information. I have had my XL BGE for about 2 months now and I am totally ate up with it. Dont know if I will ever cook with gas again. My family just loves the food that comes off the egg and there's nothing better than that. We attended the BGE Fest in Plano this past weekend and had a blast. Will probably cook in it next year. I love the Ozark Oak Charcoal and the Dizzy pig products. Looking forward to discussions on here.

    Glad to have you and hope we got to meet in Plano. As Griffin said we like pictures (most of us don't read).

    Set up March 16th to be in Salado for our little fest (160 miles south on 35). Bring you kilt if you got one....

    Thanks, I met a lot of folks there. I enjoyed talking with the Spring Chicken fella, going to try his Bourbon chicken recipe soon. It was delicious.

    Here is the only pic I have so far. Tri-tip I did a few weeks ago with some DP Raising the Steaks. More to come as I get more comfortable with this thing. I will have to look into the Salado event.

    Oh c'mon @ayayron - what is there to disagree about? That I am glad he joined up? That I  am glad that he went to a fest? That he is going to learn tons here? That he shouldn't post pictures here? Maybe he should take a cue from you and just sit back, never make a post and disagree with everybody and mark everybody down as a troll? Your life must be pretty pathetic if you have nothing better to do than attack people here who are trying to help people out and share their love of the Egg. I really hope you get banned soon. You've proven that you are worthless.

    @Plano_JJ - sorry to hijack your thread. Mos people (not @ayaron) are here to help out in any way they can or will cheer on your successes. Just don't feed the trolls. They have a way of coming back and stirring up grief.

    I have to thank my wife for that. I was going to get the Large but when she saw them, she said we need the XL. Love that woman!

    Welcome to the forum!  I'm about two weeks deep into forum participation, and from my short list of experiences, most everyone on here is eager to help out.  Don't hesitate to ask anything, someone will step up and help you out.  I love my Egg, but the fan base and the forum are really what makes the whole experience so enjoyable.

    Welcome, Plano II.  You will love it here.  Great folks, and lots of ideas.

    However, I already have a complaint for you.  Your picture is way too much in focus.  Our coke bottles don't focus that well.

    Welcome @Plano_II!  The tri-tip looks great!  

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.
