Well after years of lightly checking out the BGEs, I finally pulled the trigger and picked up an XL a couple weeks ago. It joins a La Caja China, a classic Oklahoma Joe's offset smoker, a vertical smoker box, a Kenmore 6 burner propane grill and a good ol' Weber. Having a great time getting it dialed in and have done some chicken, smoker some beef short ribs, a couple of pork butts and looking at pizza stones now so we can start doing some pies!
Got great service from Smitty at Eggs by the Bay in Nor Cal...he helped seal the deal. Love all the great info shared in the forums as well!

Welcome aboard and enjoy the journey. With your selection of cookers we won't know what you cooked the food on but I'm sure if the above is any indication it will all look great.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood.

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. -

Nothing wrong with a ole Weber at all my friend. I cook almost exclusively on a ole wore out Weber myself. Congradulations on the new egg and welcome to the forum. Oh, the ribs look great!!cmac610 said:a good ol' Weber.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

Great looking ribs and welcome aboard. Sounds like you got quite the arsenal. Don't be too quick to dump any of them. The Egg is great at some things, but not all and sometimes its just fun to cook on other things. I've always wanted to cook on a Caja.

Thanks @Griffin and no, don't plan on dumping any of them any time soon. We do a big backyard BBQ comp every year, so they'll be used. Besides, it's fun to switch things up from time to time. And until I can squeeze a 90 lb pig in an Egg, the La Caja China stays too!Griffin said:Great looking ribs and welcome aboard. Sounds like you got quite the arsenal.

@cmac610 Welcome aboard! Strong first post.
I'm curious, does the La Caja China live up to the hype?

Thanks @blasting You know, I really like it. It's obviously not from small cooks, but I've done a couple of whole hogs, tried pork shoulders and did my Thanksgiving turkeys on it last year using an A-MAZE-N smoker box. Cooked a 63 lb hog in just over 5 hours and it was fantastic!blasting said:
