Greetings from cmarkwin in Jax, NC

May 30, 2015, 08:27 AM

I'm an Attorney in Jacksonville, NC, and currently represent Social Security claimants. I retired from the Marine Corps in 1993 as a Major. My wife, Debbie, and I enjoy the grilling experience and, of course, the finished product. We're fortunate to live in a community with natural gas and that fuels my six burner Weber Genesis. Debbie usually handles that beauty with remarkable results. A couple of years ago I discovered the Big Green Egg. I now have the Max and the Medium and I am the sole operator of both. Those of you on this site don't need me to echo the kudos afforded these remarkable cooking systems. I've cooked everything susceptible to cooking and the food was better for it. I have almost every accessory one could obtain to enhance and simplify my grilling. I must strongly recommend thermometers and Thermoworks makes the best. The instant read Thermapen is a must have item and the ThermaQ is just perfect for low and slow. Happy Grilling!
