Wow my father posts here too! Err wait.... Ron's Dad...I get it! You're my daddy!!LOLOLOL You're so clever you should be a comedian!!!!

Who said I have a Weber? Who said I can't afford an egg? Who said I use Matchlight?

I never said any of that.

I have a FEC100 & a Grillworks by Grillery.

Go on keep cooking with your fragile cookers. We both know they're prone to breaking, the difference between me and you is that I wouldn't tolerate a cooker with fundamentally flawed design elements.

ummmm sure....the firebox is SUPPOSED to be broken!!!

LOLOLOL

And LOL@ you for thinking you're better than someone because you can afford a more expensive cooker.

You're a lot like your naked buddy....OWNED!

OWNED!!!!!!!!!!!

"Sorry, but no I don’t know about problems with the XL. The one at my dealer and the one at Ace Hardware work fine. I vaguely recall a post on the Big Green Egg Forum about it, but that’s the only report I’ve heard. All the other owners on the BGE forum haven’t mentioned it. I’ll give you another chance to exit gracefully before you run out of ignorant stereotypes. You enjoy your cooker and all the ceramic owners will enjoy theirs. Peace, bro…."

From the Naked Whiz Web site;

# The lid on my cooker won't stay open. What should I do?
Well, when the rear hatch on our mother's Plymouth mini-van wouldn't stay open, she used a broomstick to prop it open. However, this isn't such a good idea on the Egg, so we have two suggestions. First, if you own an Extra Large Egg, you may have one of the older hinges which had this problem. Call the Big Green Egg headquarters in Atlanta to see about a replacement. However, if you own a Large Egg, you may have installed the hinge upside down. Yes, this is possible and it happens. Rather than show you how to install your hinge here, we suggest you get the assembly instructions and check them carefully to insure you have installed the hinge correctly. If your dealer assembled the Egg for you, then of course, contact your dealer if necesssary. And if all else fails, contact BGE headquarters in Atlanta for help.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"And of course the lid stays open. What a bizarre question, lol! Or should I say, ignorant question?"

LOL

Listen to you! I know there were problems with the Extra Large Egg. I know that you know there were problems with the Extra Large Egg.

"I’ve never paid shipping for a replacement firebox."

Has more than one broke on ya?

It must be convenient to keep running back to your dealer for replacement gaskets and fireboxes.

Free firebox replacements? Really? It costs you nothing? They pay shipping too?

$650? For a cooker with approx 100 square inches less grill area than a $85 Weber. LOL!

What accessories does that include? Does it come with a nest? Oh, and careful, those wheels on the nest are tiny...hit a seam or crack on your patio and your egg will pull a Humpty Dumpty...

"All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together again."

LOL

$869.00 for a cooker with a 18" grid at Amazon.com.

And how's your firebox? Cracked, I'll bet. Did your grate crack? How many gaskets have you fried? Does the lid on your cooker stay open?

Ceramic cookers are expensive, fragile & have limited cooking space.
