Phil,
I have a Kamado Joe which is the same as the Big Green Egg. I have had it about 8 months and I absolutely love it. I have cooked everything from pulled pork, ribs, brisket, various fish, pizza, turkey etc. on it. It is the most versatile grill you can have. I really like slow cooking on it. Join up with me on my face book page.

I post receipes and pics of what's cooking. You can shoot me a message or PM here and I can help you with the basics of kamado cooking! Enjoy you new life under the dome!
