I’ve wanted a Big Green Egg since before I had babies, and now she’s finally here. Everyone, meet Eggatha. Isn’t she pretty?
A huge thank you to the folks at Associated Energy Systems for making this happen. I’ve done a few Egg events this year, from giving one away on CBS Better Mornings Atlanta, to making MOINK balls at the Pacific NW Eggfest, to a demo with AES, and I hope to do more, especially now that I’m a card grill carrying Egghead.
In my book I call the Egg an “insulated barbecue womb”, because it holds temperature so evenly. I also love its versatility. Most grill/smokers do one or the other better, but the Egg truly is both. You can make pizzas fast and furious one night, and slow cook a pork shoulder the next day.
I’ll post my first recipe on the Egg next. We christened it with smoked stuffed trout. It was eggcellent. OK. I promise to get these egg puns out of my system. Really.
