So true. My BGE turned me into a a good cook overnight. There is a lot of margin of error. I have yet to dry out a chicken yet.
My first Boston Butt, I took the leftovers to work the next day to feed the office and they keep asking me when I'm going to do it again. It was gooooood.
Ain't got a yeti.

Don't just open it wide open all at once, a big fireball will come out at you.
Crack it open a little and let it do its thing.
I had to get a unscheduled haircut because of this.

Go to shopperschoice on Coursey they have the primo's, Kamado Joes, grill dome, and green egg on display. They don't sell green egg but have one so you can compare. You can cook on them before you buy as well.

Pretzel covered it. I crack it an inch or so and wait a few seconds. I have one friend who wears an oven mitt that goes to his elbow

If it gets real hot, like over 450 or so, open it slowwwww.

1) absolutely, 2) burger & steaks turn out great, but chicken, ribs, & shoulders are tits, 3) doesn't dry out meat, 4) no

Learned how to make bbq on the BGE. 1st butt was the best bbq I ever had. That was 2 yrs ago, better each time, smoked around 10 butts/whole shoulders. Now anytime I'm having a get together, I use the egg. Never fails to impress. Don't really bother getting bbq at restaurants anymore

What is your method to get it this high? No left over ashes, i.e. starting fresh? How long does it take you to achieve this?

Guess I need to quit buying Stubb's charcoal briquettes.

Yup. Didn't use the mitt and the first time I singed my hair all the way up to my bicep
Have used mitts ever since

Same thing as a yeti, rainbow vacuum cleaner and costas. All marketing to middle class with just a tad more disposable income.

Yep, only have to make that mistake a few times before you figure that one out

Depends if you've got it. Primos XL > BGE

2. Do you use it to cook different foods other than typical BBQ meats?
Nope

3. What is your favorite thing about the oven?
Temperature control, and the length of time you are able to cook without tampering with it. Can't beat it for low and slow. And it will last forever.

Primo XL is better IMO
Cooked a pizza on mine last night
Can smoke beef jerky at 130* and sear steaks at 700*+
I own a k2, but won it in a raffle. No sticker though.

Yes. Got it in 2003 and it has been worth every penny. I would replace it tomorrow if it was stolen or broken.
