Here it is. Seems to be a little on the heavy side but still portable.

Awesome brother!! Enjoy it my friend.
Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
You will love it...

Congrats. Yeah its not like the mini as far as portability but it does hold alot more.
-
Haven't had a chance to cook on it but did try to see what all fits. So far a 8lb pork butt. My 12" cast iron skillet that I make deep dish pizzas in. Tried the Dutch oven but it's to tall. Also the termometer is the same size as all the other eggs so it protrudes a good bit into the egg that's the only issue I've seen so far. That's an easy fix, I can just remove it and use my maverick probe on the grid.

I had a large nest sitting around so I tried and it fits well in it. I have a medium which isn't assembled that I'll try too. Looks like it will to with the measurements I took.
-
It looks cute in that nest. Kind of like it wants to grow up and be a large some day.LBGE (still waitin' for my free T-Shirt), DIgiQ DX2 (In Blue, cause it's the fastest), Heavy Duty Kick Ash Basket, Mc Farland, WI.

@DoofusOfTheDay you can easily do a 8 lb shoulder. I did a 7 pounder when I got mine and the fire box was still almost full the next day.

Can't do that anymore. I sent one Mini to Afganastan with Distributer's blessing (they gave it to me if I would get it to the war zone). A friend up north couldn't get one so I bought one and sent it (he paid for it) to him. The Distributer was not happy as something accross other distributors lines. So can't do that again. But I go to Seaside, FL every year and would be glad to buy one and you meet me on 1-10 give it to you. Bet you will have them in your area by June. They are giving me two to give away in March at the Salado Fest.Salado 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).

@mickey I was referring to your mini and carten since you bought a new MM. I want a mini not a mini max.

Sighted a MM at my dealer's today-wish the SBGE had the MM firebox design as that would be quite the cooking machine. I think @badinfluence (he the owner of all makes and models of BGE's) described the target market quite well a couple of weeks ago: anyone who wants to go hot&fast (restaurants or tail gate parties etc) will see the immediate value. FWIW-Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.
