Hey all. I have been lurking for way too long and thought I'd introduce my self. I'm Chris from sterling Virginia. First off I have to tell you I don't have a green egg. I have a vision brand I got from Costco last year. However I want one and when money isn't funny I will hopefully be getting one. I've made a ton of stuff that I've learned from here such as briskest, rib eyes, prime rib, ABT's, wings, pizza, spatchcock chicken. You name it. So a big thanks to all. Tonight I will be grilling up some sausage my good friend gets me from New Jersey with some hatch chilis and Swiss cheese. I finally got a themapen and I have say I'm not sure how I've lived without it all these years.
I made reverse sear thick New York strips on Sunday per all you guys expertise. One thing I did different was after the steaks were around 110° I removed them, cranked up the temp and removed the plate setter(BGE)and grill rack and put my grate from my little weber smokey joe directly on the coals as it is small enough. About 45 seconds to one minute per side seemed to be the ticket. Any way I just thought I'd share. It seemed to work out really well. Sorry no pics as I had other stuff to tend to. Thanks again for all the great info. I will be posting from now on. (With pics). Take care. Chris

Welcome aboard brother Feeder. Enjoy that Vision my friend. Good cooking is good cooking no matter what you cook it on. I myself use other cookers besides the Egg. If you believe popular opinion, then I don't have a cooker of any kind at all. But that's another story. Again fire up that Vision and let's see some grub!!!

Turned out pretty good. The thing I like most about my cooker is hanging out watching it even though you don't have to. But having beverages while cooking is the best

Welcome my friend, It doesn't matter what you cook on, some of the most interesting cooks here are on Unit 1,2,3,4,etc. It is just like motorcycles I don't care what you ride as long as you enjoy it. Oh yea the pics that state "still learning" time to peel off the rookie stripe!Lenoir, N.C.
