Baby Eggatha

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.

  1. Well congratulations. Wish I'd have caught you on TV. This looks like a Good Egg to me. Can't wait to see more. Cheers from your ATL neighbor here in Douglas County.

  6. Yea! I love my Eggs and would not trade them for the world. I named them Edgar and Edna. I think you need some Egg jewelry to celebrate. Check my beads at: http://atworkathomeandabroad.blogspot.com/2010/05/bge-beads.html
