BGE XL aka Miss Alice has arrived!

[Hulagn1971]

I am not sure if you remember this, I posted a couple months ago that I was going to purchase a BGE XL from a good friend of mine. We finally have been blessed with decent weather and I was able to pick up Miss Alice today. She is a virgin cooker. Poor thing has a crust of moss on the outside of her seal and woodwork that has been weathered from sitting outside. I am a lucky man and she is a lucky girl to come to a home that will give her the best life. One filled with meat and smoke....plus the occasional pizza. Please welcome Miss Alice to The Pit. She needs some love. She asked me to ask The Pit for must have accessories to help her perform at her best. I'll be working with her the next couple weeks to find her sweet spots and get her dialed in for future cooks. Thank you all for your input. This is why I love being a part of the Amazing Ribs Community!!!

Very Nice!

Wow! Looks 100% brand spankin’ new!!! Congrats!!!

[RonB]

Great score!

She's gorgeous. Great name too.

I would get a Kick Ash Basket, or something similar. It makes clean up easier and I think the fire burns better and more steady.

I also like the stainless chimney cap, from The Ceramic Grill Store. It doesn't move when you open the lid. And it keeps the water out. It looks sharp too.

I bought this small, shop-vac from Milwaukee. It makes it easy to keep the inside of the Egg really clean. Also great for cleaning around the egg itself.

BGE is coming out with a new divide and conquer style set up. I will be curious to see how much they want for it.

CONGRATS ON THE NEW RIG!!!

When ordering from the CGS get a Pizza Stone and Riser to get the stone higher into the dome. Their stones are thicker and won't crack.

Congrats! And welcome to the Pit Miss Alice

[Steve B]

That is a great score my friend.
Aside from not getting the warranty they offer

[Spinaker]

Yeah I don't have one either. The price you don't have to pay when you get a great deal.

[Henrik]

Cool! Congrats on getting a truly great grill/smoker!

[LA Pork Butt]

Ow the fun starts! I love my large egg, and I am sure you will really love your Xl.

[Oakgrovebacon]

Nice! A little bit of restoration on the woodwork and you will be just like new! Have fun!

[Hulagn1971]

[Spinaker]
