Handle Replacement for Large
Anyone know if BGE dealers sale replacement handles? If so, do they come with the screws & nuts that attach it to the band?

What happened? Handle get charred? BTW handles use nuts and bolts - no screws. Just the wood can be replaced easily so no need to replace the metal.

Yes, I have seen some dealers here in Atlanta with handles.
What's your terrirory, unfortunate auburn fan....

I had to get new wood for my handle and my dealer ordered it for me.

A stock handle? Seriously? I have an XL, but that doesn't make a difference.

I might have an extra. I'll check tomorrow. Might message me to jog my memory.

I'm in Birmingham, AL. I was adjusting the dome because I had a slight under-bite and was getting some smoke leaking out of one side. For some dumb reason, I thought I needed to take the handle off to lift out the dome. I un-screwed the nuts that attach the handle to the bolts but failed to take out the bolts...they were just loosely sticking through the holes in the band. Next thing I know, the right bolt has "disappeared"...likely in the ashes in the bottom of the egg but I never could find it...even after digging and stirring around with a magnet. I could just get a bolt of the same size from Lowes but figured I might as well go ahead & replace the handle since I've got to take it apart (again) regardless. The handle on it now is pretty banged up. Like I said, long story!

You can find those bolts pretty easily at HW stores. Cinch studs are what they are called. Surely someone will know the size.....

A few years ago they came out with some ugly-ass plastic handles. They still selling them that way?Signal Mountain, TN

Thank god no more plastic handles. Got too hot to touch and we're just ugly. Now all eggs come with wooden handles.
