I love how the Egg can maintain a temp for hours with no assistance at all.
Last night’s cook proved to me why I love my Big Green Egg XL. I started a brisket cook at 7pm. By 8:10 I was confident temp was stable and a 13# trimmed brisket started it’s journey. I set a few alarms overnight to check the temp. At 5am the brisket was wrapped and as of 7am I have never adjusted the vents and the temp never moved from 270 (+ or - 5 degrees). Truly amazing. The flat is almost probing like butter so I am checking every 15 minutes.
A shout out to lousubcap for sharing his notes on a brisket cook, that was a big help.
my son and his friends will enjoy this brisket I am sure...

I’ve never understood the need for temp controllers based on the great temp stability I have experienced with my Egg.Large Big Green Egg in a nest. North Shore of Boston.

That looks great. A fun cook with tasty rewards at the finish.Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

First, great looking cook. Second, I agree with you concerning how the egg holds temperature without adjustment. I have never felt like I needed a temperature control device with my large. Just let it stabilize and check it once or twice during the night. At my age, I have to get up for a bathroom visit or two anyway.Morristown TN, LBGE and Mini-Max.
