A friend sent me some screenshots of what appears to be BGE in Mexico, could it be true or just a hoax?

Anyone who can confirm this? I don't want to get hyped just to be false.

    It's true. I've seen similar posts by Big Green Egg HQ on Facebook as well. The ceramics are already manufactured in Mexico. Now there will be a bigger company presence with their Mexican office.

    @REMtx so there might be some hope after all.

    @Photo Egg right now HEB is also the official retailer of Weber Kettles in Monterrey, HEB is also sponsoring some Grilling tournaments so being BGE distributor (if true) would be the next step on the ladder.

    @northGAcock demasiado dinero...pero estará en Monterrey, la gente lo comprará.

    Espero que que no sea una moda pasajera, me gustaría ver Eggfests y demás eventos como los que se tienen en EUA. Además si esto continúa las competencias de parrilleros serán mas reñidas.

    A friend of mine went there to verify and apparently they are already selling XLs BGEs at a not-so-reasonably price of $25k MXP which at current exchange rate would be $1,375 USD, need to clarify that is the cost of a bare Egg.

    I know the drill pics or didn't happen, planning to go on Sunday for that, you know  need to see to believe.

    @Mickey & @Austin Egghead  pardon my ignorance but who's Beli?

    Unfortunately Costco doesn't carry briskets so I went to HEB get a 9lbs Full Packer Brisket (no grade) that I saw the other day and it was gone.

    Didn't want to get our with nothing and ended up with a Weber Kettle, definitely having a second grill helps, is not a BGE but I think it'll cover hot and fast necessities while the Egg is slowly cooking the main dish.

    Beli is an avid egger,  gentleman and wonderful cook who lives in Monterrey Mexico.  He and his family come up for many of the Texas eggfests.  He was very active on the original forum.  Type Beli in the search and you will see some of his posts.
