    Huh. I put my table on its side, put the egg in, and lifted the whole thing up.
    I've seen that method suggested before, but didn't you still need a helper to lift it back up or do you just have a strong back?
    I have used the Humpty Dumpty method. Take out the firebox and fire ring and cable tie the top to the bottom. Used a 2x4 to keep the bottom from falling out the back and then over she goes. Had a neighbor help (bribed with promise of pulled pork). It was easy with two.

    In cooking, often we implement steps for which we have no explanations other than ‘that’s what everybody else does’ or ‘that’s what I have been told.’  Dare to think for yourself.

    I missed replying to this. Yes, I had someone help. If I'd've known I needed someone, I probably wouldn't have done it this way, but once everything is sideways you might as well see it through.

    I bought a demo at an eggfest so I put the Large BGE in the front seat of my pickup and used the seat belt to restrain it.   My wife laughed when I got home.  I then picked it up myself and put it in a plastic kids kayak and pulled it to the back yard over the grass.  Then I put my arms around it and lifted it into the BGE cypress table.  Not a hard thing to do if you have long arms ;)
