Hello Eggheads what do you think about the adjustable rig for the large egg and is it worth getting.

When you want to do about four pork butts and many ribs what do you think and do y'all have pictures

Thanks

    I hear good things you should do it

    I bought the R&B Oval Combo, Rib option. (link) One of the best accessories I've bought for the egg.  I use it multiple times a week. Extender for pizza and spatchcocked chicken. Reverse sear steak on top, while CI pan is warming on the bottom. Any protein on either level, with sides on the other level. It's a great purchase, and it's on sale now.

    I just took the leap a few minutes ago. I bought the rib and chicken set up. Looking forward to some serious cooking now. 

    Thanks for the comments. 

    I only saw 4 ribs on the video, how many can actually go on there?

    Also have the R&B combo, if I didn’t have it I might kick the egg off of the deck. It’s a game changer.

    Not that the egg is terrible without, it’s just much better with.

    I have a customer combo AR setup with the extender. Cooking on multiple levels is possible but not easy with my setup but I don't attempt it that often. The extender is really useful for pizzas. I use a pizza steel, extender, plus AR.

    My AR lives in my large. Woo live in the MM.  Rarely cook without them. Good move.

    +1 on the AR.  Did 2 briskets (15 and 12 lb) on mine yesterday and use it for either additional grid space or raising the grid on majority of my cooks.

    Enjoy... just know that to do that set up you will also need the spider and smaller round stone (13” I think) for the deflector.

    Ordered that too to go along with it both of them. I ordered everything off the Chicken and Rib video including the large spider and the 13th in stone

    On mine, I would just slide the oval stone under the bottom rack and let it sit on the base. That should get you indirect protection as well.

    I use mine just about every time the egg is fired up.  No complaints.

    I tell you I can't wait to get mine but that thing is very expensive.

    With the chicken and rib combo and spider and 13 inch stone all that was  $312. And that was on sale

    I waited 3 years to pull the trigger, and I feel like such an idiot for waiting. Takes your egg to another level, literally! Best investment/eggcessory ever!
