Cracker has a friend who is in love with his. I think he even belongs to a Big Green Egg club.

I've heard good things about the Green Egg.  We made an Italian brick oven (http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/members/lburou-albums-our-wood-fired-oven.html).  Love it!

My daughter's boyfriend has one of those eggs.  He darn near swoons when he speaks of it.

I don't have one, but I've used one a few times.  They seem to produce a pretty even heat and hold/maintain the temperature well, even if only a low heat once the shell warms up.  My issues with them are the size(s) and weight.  If you ever have to move it, a certain amount of care for yourself and the egg needs to be taken.  You don't want that bad larry tipping over!  The other issue I have is the size...  Quite often if I'm grilling or smoking, it's for enough people that I don't find the Green Eggs to be very practical.  ~ That's my two-cents... take it, or leave.  I won't be offended either way :)

Thanks for all your replies. Everyone who owns one around here loves it as well. I wonder if my wife wants one for our 40th anniversary coming up next month?  :yes:

I got the Large big Green eggs.  I would give up my kids before the Egg would go.They are the bomb and worth every penny you spend on them.  There is a reason you dont see used eggs for sale. ;)

Nope, in fact she never has but I think she would like having a Big Green Egg.  And if by chance she didn't, then I would reluctantly use it. ;D
