if there's ever a poster that would love to side with mrs gooch over gooch on something it's probably me, because it's funny to do. but 5 years is a pretty decent life for a 200-300 grill.

gooch wins this one.

Guys the new grill comes in today

the absolute worst part about a new grill? putting it together.  always helps to have 2 sets of hands for a grill assembly.
suck that you'll have to do it alone. in the rain.  without mrs gooch.   while she watches project runway.  from 8:00-9:30.  tonight.  dry and warm, inside.

After I saw the purchase on Amazon, and noticed it said assembly required, I mentioned to Gooch how he was going to have to put it together and how that was such a pain and he said, "Yeah, I put the last one together with no problem." And I was like, "Oh, I thought they just came assembled from the store." Who knew?

And I'll probably be watching Vampire Diaries.

I would never put together a grill. Woof

Grills are like a 1/7 on the assembly difficulty scale

I had our new Weber delivered to clams GF house.  When it came, she texted me that it was delivered assembled.
I couldn't believe it.  I was surprised!
When I got to her house, I found an unopened box measuring 3 ft wide by 3 ft tall.

Anyone here have a green egg?  Thoughts vs. either straight smoker or combo grill/smoker?   Considering trying to win/buy one.

[AppleJack]

I have a Kamado Joe and I use the balls out of it. Would highly recommend.

[pissclams]

of course i have one.  best purchase ever.
what the eff do you want to know about it?
does it sear steaks at 800+ degrees?  you bet your fat ass it does.
does it smoke ribs/brisket/misc at 225?  i'll slap you across the face twice if it doesn't.

don't get that kamado joe bullshit, it's for people on food stamps.

   What size do you have?  Can I cook an entire cow on the extra large?

[AppleJack]

nope, i have a large.  the one complaint people have of these sons of bitches is their God damned size.

Yeah, I've considered it the last two years.  And once I do pull the trigger (probably in May), I'll probably be a accessory whore anyway, whether needed or not.

Just buy the cheapest grill you can find.  I bought a Rangemaster 22" kettle from Aldis over the summer for $25 and guess what, it gets super duper hot and cooks my food. 

[Dr Rick Daris]

of course I've had my grill for almost 8 years now and with no real plans to get a new one anytime soon

Dub - go for the egg or kamado Joe, primo, keg...  They are amazingly versatile.  you won't regret it.

[Gooch]

Oh man new grill and Royals tickets. Winning! #fanningbrag

[Mrs. Gooch]

Oh yeah, we weren't supposed to buy tickets after you spent all our money on a grill. oops.

I'm gonna do the egg.  There's a competition out here in April sponsored by Big Green Egg with 15 amateur BBQ'ers and winner keeps the L/XL egg they cook on.  Go FTW and if not, they discount the eggs in the competition cause they are slightly used.

Yeah, figured it'd be the time to do it.  No one knows BBQ out here either so I feel like i'd have a decent chance.  All depends on the random ingredients though.

What do you have to do to qualify as one of the 15?
