Must be an inside joke...

OK, I've read the threads, see it mentioned in countless other threads, and I don't get it...
I don't want this to turn into another "Mangrates" thread, but what the heck is everyone talking about? I understand what the PRODUCT is, but there seems to be some inside joke that I am missing...

This is about the story (not the product so much).This is where a lot of us have way to much time on our hands and nothing cooking on any of the Eggs at the moment.
Just 90% fun and 5% product and 74% goofy.
That is my "mangrate" on it anyway :-?

I think your 'product' percentage is a little too high.

ptmurphy sorry but all is lost. This is going to be a mangrate thread :-tSalado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Plus a couple Pit Boss Pellet Smokers.

I believe this is the discussion that started it all:It started out innocent enough...someone just asked if anyone used them, but then it spiraled into a full-fledged infomercial about mangrates.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

So I'm thinking I would have more luck cracking the secrets of the Freemasons than getting a real answer on this? :-)

What SmokeyPitt said. I was about to post that link as well.Please enjoy. Mangrate commands!

Real answer:A guy started a thread stating how WONDERFUL his Mangrate was. He was so emphatic about it, that we started accusing him of working for the company, which he still denies. Then, some yaloo member made a sarcastic remark about how wonderful his mangrate was and used an unbelievable claim. Well, that got it started, so everyone started saying how great their (mythical) mangrate was. It went downhill from there.We are very immature on this forum.__________________________________________Dripping Springs, Texas.Just west of Austintatious

@ptmurphy, it seems you have received some helpful and not so helpful thoughts. Let me try to assist as well. I have served in the US Army for over 12 years. I can say there is technology being used by the military that is rarely seen in the civilian sector. Every once in a while, however, an amazing product is released for civilian use. The Mangrates is one of those products. Although once called the M571G Tactical HOORAH, they have declassified it for public use. I am glad to see this product on the market today but I will warn you now, it will make you wanna go slap yo daddy when those burgers come off the BGE!!! I hope this helps.
If its not memorable, its not worth doing.

At my age, I have to rely on a little blue pill to get my mangrate to work at all.
