It was time for a rebuild
The egg and the old table were beginning to show some wear and tear and so I finally found some time to dedicate to the project. The first photo is the before. It was time! Refurb includes (a) new Rutland from RRP (thanks @RRP)and the installation with his rock solid instructions was a cinch, (b) new band assembly, which I…

OT - What are you doing now? (2026)
2025 was a wild whirlwind with so many highs and lows. I’m currently having a party with an amazing group of friends I met in 2025. We are looking forward to 2026!! Hope everyone has an amazing year and look forward to seeing what everyone is up too!

What Are You Buying Right Now? (non-OT version)
We all want to see what cool stuff you are buying (so we can judge, stereotype or just plain envy you).

What Are You Chef-ing Tonight, Dr?
I think it's going to be leftovers for us; and I feel the urge to bake some professional cookies using a recipe derived from the scientific method. Posted by (I'd have to look) on my cookie thread. Tasty Beverage: Dr Pepper

What are you drinking....now?
Deep eddy vodka and tonic. Before that, Austin Amber. Thinking about my punch stogie. (@Fredflintstone thread will not update)

Friday night and the EggHead Forum option of the forum choices is eerie quiet- I need to get a life!
The title says it all. Chasing the end of the not so endless summer comes to mind. Guilty here as no BGE cook rolling tonight and playing with live fire Saturday. Surely Friday night shenanigans are on the horizon. Edit for fat finger correction.

The End of an Era!
For all you Nor Cal Eggers…Eggs by the Bay is closing as @SMITTYtheSMOKER rides off in to the sunset! For me, this is where my love affair with the Bug Green Egg started. Thankful to be there next weekend for the Chili Cook-off and to celebrate Smitty’s upcoming retirement. 💚♨️💚

OT - What are you fixing right now?
With all the talent and DIY repair posts lately, I thought it appropriate to start this thread. Maybe it will encourage some to tackle a project. I enjoy seeing the posts! Let's go!

Pellet Thoughts
It's so easy, they say, about pellet grills. Ya gotta admit that the BGE takes time.....it's a process. I need you guys to talk me out of it.....and who has the best and most reliable pellet?

Hi Friends!
Finally decided to check back in after an extended break. The time away from here, and social media in general, has been good for me. I've been in contact with a few of you so I appreciate that. Life's been good. I've started a native prairie on my property. The apiary is in full swing and it's been a busy winter building…

Gonna be a good day, Tater!

BGE Mini Max
I’m looking for a Wok to fit mm. Thanks

Holy Grail Pastrami
I'm not 100% there yet but this post can be a living document as I progress. I can say I got damn close with this one and would only make a few tweaks to the next one. I got my inspiration from a pizza place (stick with me) that makes their own pastrami. Their pies are some of the best in the city but it's their pastrami…

Kinda Korean Drumsticks
Between other weird things I’m trying to accomplish today I got some chicken legs marinading in 1/4 cup gochujang paste, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup brown sugar, two cloves of chopped garlic and a splash of fish sauce and lime juice. Just went on the XL with some space for veggies. Cooking at just under 300°F direct.

Mini Egg Close Call Happened
WOW... I have owned my mini EGG since 2008, and it has been a great addition to my collection of eggs, also perfectly suited for travel. So, I traveled with it... and the EGG and the table it was sitting on somehow fell over onto a paved driveway in a storm in the middle of the night. The egg was in the BGE stand with 4…

Copycat Cook - Creamy Pesto Risotto
Taking some inspiration from our very own @JohnInCarolina. Recipe at https://www.platingsandpairings.com/pesto-risotto/. As the saying goes “Good musicians write; Great musicians steal”. My kids love pesto, so I figured this would be a slam dunk. A little sautéed shrimp for protein.

Wok on mini max
I was wondering which method people prefer for using/holding a wok on the mini max: a woo or a spider? I already have the woo, so would rather use that than have to buy something else. But, will the wok get hot enough with the woo to work effectively (I know the spider will be no problem)? Finally, if the woo will be ok…

Carne Asada tacos
I make these tacos fairly often, but a new marinade and a twist on flour tortillas made this maybe worth a post. First, it's been awhile since I've purchased beef; nearly $20 for a stupid flank steak?!? Uff-dah! The marinade was more complex than my normal mix, it's from Epicurious. Zest and juice from one orange and two…
