Interesting...Kamado Joe ripped off the egg design and now BGE ripped off their divide and conquer rig design .
Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -
The only innovative thing out of that video is the MiniMax stand."The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

Looks like they’re getting roasted in the comments. Copying is going to happen, but selling it like it’s a new idea their designer came up with is the sad part. It’s derivative, just say that - people seem to want this kind of stuff, here’s our version.

BGE - the Walmart big box raider of 'merica's small business. What's next? Private label Rockwood?
Little late to the game, I'm told.

I’ll probably buy it.“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

So the Woo isn't patented I take it? Cuz that's straight up ripped off. As for the devide and concur... cmon man! Next they'll have a smoke ware cap and ash basket. Posers.Slumming it in Aiken, SC.

I like it, solidly built. Stumped it took the stuffed shirts this long though.
Many configurations, raised iron, built in spider.
I too, feel bad for the third parties. KAB, SW are next up on the chopping block.BrandonQuad Cities

I don’t think CGS should be all that worried, because these BGE versions will easily cost twice as much as their products."I've made a note never to piss you two off." - Stike

BTW a bunch of us have been clamoring for BGE to step its game up, especially after the KJ2.0, seems like a lot of negative reaction to improvements BGE needed to make to compete“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

That cast-iron "umbrella" for the new top cap looks like it won't work in rain with any kind of wind (ie, any rain in most of the country) but I'll bet it doubles as a great smashburger tool!

I've had a chance to use the divide and conquer system and as much as I like some of the improvements KJ have made to their cookers, the CGS adjustable rig is superior.
I think BGE does have some catching up if they want to stay on top and appeal to the new buyers in the market though. I know the value of having a BGE but KJ is catching them and maybe beating them in the marketing department.

lol where was this 'innovation' ten years ago!

I guess I have to wait and see ... Don't have/want a Facebook account and does not seem to be their site yet.

I actually just watched the video, I agree it is a rip off of the woo.
I still think the adjustable rig has it's merits.
I use both the adjustable rig and the woo with a mix of my own rigs. I have two LBGE's and ended up buying the rig and woo for both of them.

20 years ago ceramic cookers were a cult like crowd. Today ceramic cookers are more mainstream then they have ever been. BGE needs to do something different then rest on their laurels because most mainstream folks don't fully understand what makes BGE so legendary, at least to folks who have been into it for so many years.
I have to admit I am impressed with some of the things KJ have done as far as hinge and gaskets.
