Smart remarks are welcome, but I'd really like to hear from those who've been there & done that. |

I love mine. I don't use it often enough, but when I do it's great.
I don't have a lot to compare it to, though. But it seems to be everything that's advertised. |

The food tastes better, The meat are juicier. A steak cooked on a gas grill get seared at around 400F. On a BGE its closer to 750F. That hods in the juices.
You can also Smoke with it and slow cook with steady temps of 190-200 are perfect for ribs and brisket. Beer can chicken is the best on the BGE. |

I have several friends that have them from the small to the large ones. If your gonna lay that kinda coil down. Better be grilling a whole lot. They do a great job. But you still have to be a decent cook to make good food. A green egg won't make you that. They really excel at slow cooking and smoking. But so do a lot of other alternatives. They also make great pizza when you really crank up the heat.
