Is all of it mayo-based?

No. Just their brand name. I hope it's good

this probably belongs in the random food thoughts thread, but oh well.

there are very few things food wise that are as satisfying to me than pulling the entire silverskin off pork ribs in one pull without tearing it. i love it.

Any reviews?

going to smoke a rack of spare ribs today for dinner tonight

what time should I come over?

6ish.they go on in an hour or so..whole bottle of whistle pig here

I'll start driving now

I’m picking out a big green egg this weekend for my birthday. Any advice, friends?

Yes, get a Kamado Joe instead.

Why?

It has a slow roller that you can use for smoking, a better rain cap, more upgrades, and is easier to clean. I went to buy a Big Green Egg at Abt about 6 months ago and wondered where they were when I got there. The guy said that they stopped carrying them when they weren’t selling compared to the Kamado Joe. I had never heard of the latter before, did some research, and found they got just as good or better ratings than the BGE.

The BGE is great. But for the money, I went with the Kamado Joe because of the reasons I mentioned.

Dickey's

nice..you can't go wrong with either one..chris just went with the kamado because its ohio state buckeye colors
my egg is almost 10 years old with no problems...

What size you guys go with? I’m think medium is probably enough...

i have the large..if you want to do a lot of ribs and big pork shoulders you should go large

What about brisket?

def go large..i forgot to mention that..a large can barely hold a big full brisket..it does though...sometime i wish i had an XL and a small

Went with the large! Overall room, plus the EGGspander doesn’t fit in the medium, and that optionality seems clutch. Should have it by end of the coming week.

happy 44th, spike
