It"s bragging time, How long have you ran your egg continuously before shutting down.Wether it"s been one long cook or several cooks back to back. Also,

1. What did you cook,and how long.

2.At what temp.

3. And how did your egg perform under continuous use.

4. Did you have any problems you would like to share?

Alright all retirees,and those of you who have it made and don"t have to work like us,and have all the time you want to run your eggs ;);) .

(This is going to be good and very interesting) thanks for your input...

    Not bragging but last year for the Superbowl party 1 of the larges ran for 28 hrs on 1 load. 3 overnight butts at 250 then 4 or 5 chicken cooks (pieces) at 350, then reheated 2 briskets at the same temp. Still had some lump left but reloaded for burgers and dogs for the kids. That was just 1 of 3 we had going for that weekend.

    My favorite feat was a jerky smoke. Not just for time, but low temps as well. 15 hours @ 155 degrees! Scott

    about 32 hours. was a butt done too low at 225, and followed by a brisket my buddy brought over.

    after shutting down, i used the lump for a sear, a spatchcock chicken, and some other couple cooks. i had really overfilled it with lump, frankly. was my first butt cook

    I've still got the training wheels on...my longest is two pork butts for about 16 hours at 250. No problems at all.
