I have been on a heckuva search for a nice grill/smoker as of lately. I have done endless searches on the net & have spoken with many of fellas on job sites to see what guys are using. Went through a phase where I thought a pellet smoker was what I needed. Then started looking @ the large offset smokers that would cook on real wood, thought this might be the way to go. Then I discovered the ceramic kumado style cookers. After researching them I realized the Big Green Egg had a special following and that the versatility of this grill/smoker/outdoor oven was endless. Finally picked it up tonight on my way home from work & got it home. Grilled a quick pizza on it & a batch of breadsticks for our meal tonight & I was VERY impressed! I can't wait to do a low & slow smoke on it of ribs, a butt, or maybe a brisket. This thing is the real deal! grin

Is there any of our members cooking with a Big Green Egg? I'd love to hear feedback on this grill & also would like to find some MUST HAVE recipes to try on my Big Green Egg.

Did some chicken breast on it tonight. My god were they good! Put them in marinate last night before I went to bed that consisted of Italian dressing, mustard, A1 sauce, maple syrup, and honey. Got home from work tonight & lit the EGG. Stabilized the temp @ about 375 degrees & cooked them directly for about 9 minutes on each side. Stuck them with the thermometer and they registered at 155 degrees so I yanked them. They were YUMMY to say the least! I love this egg so far. grin

Here is a whole bird I did up. It turned out super YUMMY! Injected it with a homemade 50/50 mixture of Apple Juice and Italian dressing. Stuffed a fresh from the garden whole onion and whole apple up its azz & then coated it with a sweet brown sugar rub.

Here it is ready to go on the Egg



Placed on the Egg & setup for cooking high in the dome



Halfway through the cook



.... and done!

Had an annual neighborhood fish fry to attend last weekend and decided to take along some finger food. Decided to do some ATOMIC BUFFALO TURDS or better known as abt's. Cleaned up some Jalapeno peppers and halved them. Filled them with flavored cream cheese, shredded mexican cheese, and shrimp. Then wrapped them in bacon. They were a hit!

Here they are all fixed up and ready to be placed on the Egg



Here they are on the Egg after setting up for an indirect cook at 225 degrees. Grilled them for exactly 2 hours.



... and here they are done and ready for the party!

Currently contemplating what to try and attempt for the holiday weekend. Maybe another rack or two of ribs or might even try another whole bird. Just not too sure yet.
