    That nickname was given to me years ago, much like the one given to you @litisadouche
    I remember now. You used to fill your mouth with ice cubes and let your boyfriend assassinate it. An Alaskan Assassin 
    That would make him the assassin genius. Your shots weak bro, go hang out with bbq salesman and pick up some more pointers so you have something to talk about.
    It was actually the owner and your boyfriend said your shot is weak

    @Lit do yourself a solid, bro, and lay-off the homoerotic imagery.  It’s not a good move, it smells of desperation or longing.  One of those.

    So you think getting a BJ from another man makes him a genius?

    I had a Traeger for about 6 months or so, liked it for a month or so. I was a little miffed that I dropped a lot of cash for it. I looked long and wise at both the BGE and Kamado Joe. A lot of folks on the Traeger forum bought BGE 2 or 3x to that of Joes. IMHO, the Joes seems to have less sturdy nests and metal parts. The ceramic is not up to snuff and accessories are not as great as the BGE. Prices seem to be comparable. The Joes are still a good product, but BGE is a great product. I have a LG BGE,  I am sold on them for ever.

    I owned both KJ and BGE XL.  I'm agreeing with Jonathan 100%.  Would pick the KJ if I were buying my first Kamado. 

    It's getting harder to find BGE local dealers to take care of warranty's, and KJ just ship's the part to your house in a few days.  That's a whole lot less hassle, as I have had to replace ceramics on both thru the years.

    I did not put lot of thought into my handle. Honestly I think the first time I logged in I was just trying to get an answer to a question much like the op, But I quickly realized but this is an awesome community with a diverse group of outstanding people from all walks of life and I thought it would be cool to be a part of that.

    I bet this sort of stuff, arguing with some guy you’ve never met before on an anonymous bbq forum, is exactly what your parents thought you’d grow up to do when you were born and they named you… Preston Chandler?

    As an XL owner, I’d stick with KJ. I’ve spent way too much on getting what KJ gives out the box. Therefore the cost is similar if not favorable to the KJ. Baby bro has a classic Joe, he loves it. If he upgraded to the big Joe, I’d be hard pressed not to buy his classic

    I have a bge and decided to go bigger, almost bought an xl or a big joe. Ended up buying a primo xl and haven’t regretted a thing. By far the best shape and design. Think about it, imagine a regular bbq which is circular in shape, stupid right? 

    Primo will be up and coming in the near future with all the other kamados following suit I believe.

    It can't be all that hard based on your apparent intellect and the fact you've spent most of today on this site in a pissing match.  Are your fellow coworkers monkeys?

    I had two kamado joes, and the ceramic did not "seem" to be the same quality as BGE, I eventually sold both of them.  This video of how primos are made helped illustrate the cheapness of lesser quality kamados such as vision and kamado joe compared to primo and bge.

    https://youtu.be/mxjh43Pyr0s?t=321

    Head to 5:21 if you want to see what happens when you refire all 4 of the grills according to primos specifications when they are made.
    Great video, thanks for sharing.    My good buddy has the Primo and swears by it, I swear by my BGE.    Glad to see they both passed the QA/QC test.
