re: Gonna Smoke Some Boudin on the BGE

I would consider a Vision as well. Half the price and as far as I can tell, the quality is just as good as a BGE. Plus all the BGE accessories fit the Vision.

This.

I too was in the market for BGE and as a result of someone on this board who raved about their Vision, I decided to go that route.

Bought the Vision version of the Large BGE, with stand ($599 at sams) Also bought the accessory pack (cast iron griddle, coal rake, coal shovel, rib rack, pizza stone, deflector stone (which is a little smaller than the pizza stone) and electric starter element all for about 75 dollars (it was on sale....i think it was regular 150)

I use this pit at least 3 times a week. I've grilled, BBQ'd, long smoked, done pizza. It's awesome.

I can't comment on a direct comparison with the BGE, but it does everything it's supposed to do. I have a regular Percy Guidry's pit that hasn't been lit since i bought this. Also have built-in gas grill that I've used only a couple of times since this purchase.
