I'm interested in what cleanup you are doing on the BGE? How are longer cooks tricker? I've cooked numerous butts overnight 8-10 hours and never lifted the lid, and the temperature hasn't varied more than a few degrees during the cook. Clean out ashes after a long cook (less than 1 minute), remove water/juice pan, remove place setter, add lump, add fire starters, light, scrape grate clean. It literally takes less than 2 minutes and I'm ready to cook again. What else is there?

I have a Lynx Natural Gas grill and the XL BGE. They both work perfectly. The real difference between the two is the great smokey flavor from the BGE and its ability to cook in a way that seems to never dry out any meat. Chicken, Thanksgiving turkey and roasts come out juicy and perfect. A friend of mine got me interested in this grill because of the amazing food he barbecued on it. I had never in my life used charcoal, always propane or natural gas. I consider my purchase of the BGE one of the best decisions I ever made concerning grills.

I use a Weber Kettle 26" grill. Have had it for 9 years now and still running strong. Charcoal and cleaned properly after every use.

I Pastor a Church about one hour from where I am from. At the Parsonage, I have a gas grill that belongs to the Church. At my home, I have a charcoal grill.
I prefer the charcoal.

Charcoal all the way. I'm from Toronto, Canada and I go out there and BBQ when it's -30 degrees Celsius. The smokey taste is totally worth it. I don't think I will ever buy a gas BBQ, although I agree that it's faster hence more convenient.

You're going to love it Paul. I didn't bother with the "kitchen sink" package. Most of the accessories are a waste for me. Just went with the basic unit but did add the cover, searing kit & folding front shelf. All in including shipping was still about $500 less than the package. Now thinking of adding the cold smoker box. Nice for doing salmon and goat cheese ..... mmmmmm.

has anyone ever used, built, or purchased a 55 gallon 'oil can' grill/smoker? I've always been somewhat intrigued by the design.

Ended up getting the Yoder 640. It's like a car, before you know it, you've added an additional $600 of 'must have' accessories to it
Really liked the direct grill and smoker in one unit. Being delivered next Friday to my new house (finally finished). Just in time for Memorial Day: |

Weber kettle, One of them silver steel gas things and a horizontal barrel smoker.
What I'm making decides what I use. This summer is going to be a smoke-A-Thon around here. |
