New Egger's First Cook

Posts: 1,041
My son finally got his Egg. Life's been crazy for him and he hasn't been able to unpack and put Egg together. On the spur of the moment he called and asked if I could help him set it up. He and I assembled his new Large Monday evening on his back porch and dropped it the nest. No plans to cook until he saw it assembled and he couldn't stand it - had to cook something. He only had enough lump to fill the chimney. So, he set up for his first cook.
using his "old Weber" stuff he loaded the lump and lit off the virgin burn
While the lump got hot - he search for something to cook
Turkey sausage and yellow peppers!!
The best moment of the night - the smile that only an Egger has has the food sizzles when you put it on the grill!!!

Thanks,
He called me last night Tuesday night asking questions about the cooks he planned every night this week... He's hooked :laugh:Kent Madison MS -
Told him to look close at all the "white" because he'd never see it like that again! :woohoo:Kent Madison MS

Wow the kid can eat right. It took me 60 lbs overweight and 62 years old before I would eat like that :(
Welcome to the land of BGE......Salado TX & 30A FL: Egg Family: 3 Large and a very well used Mini, added a Mini Max when they came out (I'm good for now). Just given another Mini to add to the herd. -
He a great son... His mama has kept us all on healthy food... now we do burn the real meat some of the time- burgers, pulled pork, steaks... but for most part over the years they are balanced with fish, chicken, low-fat loins, veggies, and such....
I'd be willing to best his Egg will experience chicken skin drippings and ground beef "smoke out" before the end of week!!!!Kent Madison MS -
Mightyfine - Lots of outstanding eats and great gatherings with friends and family around the Egg in his future.
Wish I would have discovered Eggs at that age. -
Looks like a nice induction to the egg!
I agree with Frank, sure wish I had known about the egg at that age. -
Your so right, he's seen it done growing up... so he'll get it honestKent Madison MS

my "first" grill was a grocery store portable mini-grill that sat flat on the ground... :unsure:
How times have changed!! :laugh:Kent Madison MS -
Great cook and way to get him started. Now he'll do most of the real cooking.
-
If we were keeping score - he'd be 23 years in the hole-- :laugh:
It will be good to reverse the roles every once in a while Kent Madison MS -
Way to go Kent. First cook never to be forgotten. Is he geared up for posting on the forum? I have some suggestions for the new egghead's forum name. Tim

Way to go, guys! :woohoo:
A time he will probably never forget. -

Those were the days... everything was either burned or raw, smelled like lighter fluid, but we didn't know any better :laugh: :laugh:Kent Madison MS -
There are times when being a Dad is just great... this was one of them!!!!
Now, wonder if I'll see Eggin to the 3rd Generation
Kent Madison MS -
I think I just dropped a tear. Can't wait for moments like that with my 8 year old.

Or my 21 year old. He and his fiance just moved in together in Montana, 2400 miles from home in Pa. Gave him my Weber Silver Genesis and he already told me he wants a BGE. I told him to go t the EggFest in Missoula. Maybe I'll surprise him for xmas. Hope to be able to get there to have the experience with him as well. Glad you were able to enjoy it with yours.

Eggers Prayer-
Our egg, which art in sizes, hallowed be thy smoke, thy will be grilled, at home as it is at eggfest. Give us this clay our daily brisket and forgive us our rubs, as we forgive those who gas grill against us, and lead us not to flashback but deliver us from overnighters. For thine is the grill, the smoke, the egg. Let's eat!
