    @Firemanyz, I have placed a call to my usual dealer to get their best offer. I am going between them and Clark's since it is on my way home from work.

    Now that I have the small large combo, a lot of times I wish I had a xl just for bigger meat and stuff.

    Oh and I don't understand why the drama over the return. You told the truth they refunded you. It's part of the company's warranty.

    I got a lot of slack once for taking an insurance check on a bike I totaled and instead of going to a shop I used the check to make the most out of it and did the work myself. Insurance company knew and didn't care. But some people got hot saying I commuted fraud.

    A fire ring failure isn't very serious, a dome failure could cause a serious fire???  I am proud that Costco stands up concerning customer service.  I have never had a problem with Costco!

    I mainly have egg envy when it comes to ribs.  I get jealous when I see people that just throw three full slabs faced own on the XL grid with room to spare :).  


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

    Then the XL owner looks at the egger with a L and S cooking at two different temps simultaneously. :D

    Then the XL owner sees the L and S guy taking his S camping and tailgating. :D

    Works both ways.  ;)

    @Eggcelsior,

    You have to think an egg ahead of the one you're buying now.  ;)

    Damn straight. When I bought the large, I was already scheming about how to get a small. When I bought the small, a plot was already being hatched for getting a mini!

    @Eggcelsior: I'm going to hijack your thread for a moment. What about using refractory cement? Like the stuff Rutland makes for fireplaces - its rated to 2000°F or something like that. Oh but wait, you returned your egg. Never mind.

    I'll keep that in mind the next time I bust my dome.  ;)
