She threatened to get me an intervention. I told her that sounded a lot more expensive than another egg....

Very true. How did that go over? My SWMBO told me 1 egg, no more. I told her that anything is negotiable... she said so is sleeping in the bed or not.minniemoh said:She threatened to get me an intervention. I told her that sounded a lot more expensive than another egg....

The second one is the hardest to get the approval. It gets easier after that. (Maybe she just gave up, not sure)

I want the small, but my SWMBO says no and we have plenty of medical bills right now and more coming. maybe next spring if things are better. I can see where the mini or small would make more since for three people and would save on lump a little. Advantage is the mini is very easy to take with you.XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo.

HuskerMaMa said something quite similar. And now she is excited to see the arrival of our MAX that we have and still are patiently waiting for.

Right after I got my second egg, I made her dinner one evening when she worked late. She appreciated it so much that she said "If you keep cooking like this for me, you can have as many eggs as you want." Therefore, I have continued to do so and she has given me a hard time a little bit but has overall, been very understanding. I'm a lucky guy!Yesterday when I was leaving to pick it up, she expressed the "NO MORE!" message.
When I got it home, she fell in love with it so I didn't have to sleep on the couch. She said "It's just so CUTE!" with a big smile on her face. I think everything is going to be OK.L x2, M, S, Mini and a Blackstone 36. She says I have enough now....eggAddict from MN! -
I have a large and a small.... The wife bought them both for me. I must be doing something right.

The second egg (mini) she got me for Christmas last year, the third egg (large demo from Salado) took a little more persuading; maybe a good deal on a minimaxXL, 2 Large, Mini -- Shenandoah, TX Now BulletGrillHouse

She's pretty spoiled so she doesn't appreciate as much as most wood. Heck, she's just glad she doesn't have to cook. Well actually, since we're temporarily split because of our impending move, she's getting ticked off when I send her pics of food porn. So maybe now she does.

Enjoy that mini my friend.

So these smaller Eggs (I have a large), do they get to temp quicker than the larger ones? I can probably convince SWMBO to get a second smaller one for burgers and steakd and such...

@SeahawksEGGHead - the mini gets there very quickly. My medium gets their faster than my larges and the small gets there somewhere in-between (I think due to the smaller lower vent). I usually use the paraffin starter cubes cut in half to light the eggs. Not sure if this helps.L x2, M, S, Mini and a Blackstone 36. She says I have enough now....eggAddict from MN!

@minniemoh Nice score! You've got quite the Egg family there!
