Wife got me a new Small EGG for Christmas. There is no thermometer or even a hole for one anyware. Is this normal for a small ?

I don't own a small but I can't imagine that it wouldn't have a thermometer. How would you regulate it? I believe if it was me I would shoot Big Green Egg an email directly and ask about that. Hopefully some small egg owners will respond. I went to the bge web site and looked at a small and it has a thermometer.Large BGESan Angelo, texas

I can't imagine that being normal. Not hard to drill the hole and install a Tel-Tru. But, you shouldn't have to do this. I don't own a SBGE but, even the Max and Mini have them installed so I can't imagine the SBGE being any different in that respect. Awesome gift!

Any chance you or they have the lid on backwards?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). Just given another Mini to add to the herd.

Put a flashlight inside pointed up and close the dome. You will find the hole real fast this way. And yes the Smalls do have a thermometer-----------------------------------------analyze adapt overcome2008 -Large BGE. 2013- Small BGE and 2015 - Mini. Henderson, Ky.

@Mickey he said no hole and no Tel-Tru thermometer. Sometimes the thermometer is hidden in the packing though.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

Who put it togather? Bet the Tel-Tru with the packageing like NP said. I always put mine togather or if in the case of the demo Large I re- assembled it when home.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).

Look inside for the hole.... I'll bet it's just covered with glaze or the dome is on backwards.

The Dome is on correctly, and I did look inside for the hole and Nada, zip, zilch. Also there was not a thermometer with the EGG. When I got my Large I put it together and the Thermometer came packed sepporatly.

Man that's just wrong! The dealer you bought it from should make it right. If not, then the Big Green Egg people should.Large BGESan Angelo, texas
