    Our company makes parts, but that doesn't hold the same appeal ;)

    Funny you should mention that. I tried to find job postings for them one time. I never did see anything. I feel like anytime something comes up you would have 500 egg fanatics sending in resumes. If they ever need a director of marketing I'll be all over it!

    @Grillin_beers, I have searched as well, just out of curiosity, but couldn't find anything either.  If they were in the market for a quotation engineer I would be all over that....

    @tarheelmatt I'm sure that all of my money would go right back to them so it's really a win win for them. I'm not so sure I want to move to Atlanta though.

    Yeah, I agree about the moving part.  I was offered a job as a project manager in Hanover, Maryland and just couldn't do it.  I love where I live and would be hard pressed to move somewhere.

    Without coming off sounding racist, I think if you wanted to work at BGE, you should be living in Mexico, and specializing in ceramic work. All the good office jobs are taken!!

    @onedbguru‌, I would definitely hate that. I do carry from time to time. I've had my CCW about 10 years now.

    Haha.. Yeah, that's what the sales account managers say. I'll stay in NC when a home office job comes available.

    A pickup truck passed me on the freeway here in Madison last week that hag BGE logos on the side and tailgate. It went by pretty fast and I thought it had Kansas plates. I was hoping it was heading towards one of our local dealers as I was heading there. Had to make a stop elsewhere first and when I got to the dealer the truck wasn't there. Anyone have any ideas what this truck would have been?

    I've seen a BGE rep rollin' a goofy lookin' minivan type vehicle with BGE vinyl all over it.  Not a pickup though.

    The distributor in my neck of the woods is GHS.  They have the Freightliner vans that are wrapped in Big Green Egg swag.

    What BGE needs is more quality dealers.  

    We have found this to be quite rewarding.

    I would love to open up a high end BBQ store @SMITTYtheSMOKER‌. Maybe one day. I think I could kill it setting up a shop downtown and cooking on the egg outside to bring in people. How cool would it be to not have to order rubs and sauces on the Internet.

    @bcsnave‌ - UW Provisions in Middleton became a dealer this fall. How great is that when the BGE dealer also sells meat!
