And it stays there...while adding smoke flavor...with no flare ups. Night and day difference from gas. A good remote meat thermometer and you can follow any online recipe easily with a great result. I never could reproduce like that with gas.
Not your dad's Webber full of kingsford... The ceramic grills and all the Dancy gadgets have changed the game significantly. And as I understand it, when your done, shut off the air and the coal goes out. Next time, add a little more to the remaining char and fire it right back up.
We are looking hard at one for the back porch.

Dude, you bought headlights for a pile of parts.
No need to deliberate. Get the ceramic cooker. It's a no brainer.

I am on a meatathon for christmas weekend. Have about 25 of Tisa's family heading into town.
Dropped $180 in Costco in Dallas yesterday.
I figure about 20lbs of coals and half a hickory tree should get burned up.
Round 1 is pork for tonight.
These smokers make you a hero with family also huge plus you can cook lots of meat to feed the masses.
Always have to thank JttmfT on the BBQ IQ Party Q. It is the bomb. New batteries every time or I use
rechargeable now.

Hey guys, being a complete newb with the egg, is there anything special I need to know before I start burning meat on it. Planning some steaks for Christmas Day, but don't want to F up dinner by making a rookie mistake. Thanks
@jynx there is a green egg forum. Do some reading on there and try to follow a recipe that looks good. There are videos on the egg website for lighting and temp control that can explain the basics.
This is how I do my reverse sear steaks for a good medium every time.
Cook at 300 until 120 degrees (I use a raised grate for this part)
Remove steaks (and raised grate), fully open grill vents, and put in cast iron skillet on grill grate.
When grill hits 600-700, sear 90 sec each side.
Remove and let steaks rest.
If you don't have a remote meat thermometer get one.

My # 1 tip is you start the coal with a bit of fresh coal and the top closed and the air wide open.
Thanks guys. What was that fire maker you guys used? And was that for starting these or camp fires, or both?

Well dinner did not suck either 
(But my coffee will never be as good as yours
)
Learning the subtleties of cast iron and picked up a 6" lodge pan at TJ maxx for $7! Not really a weight saver but i do drive an 80
Bacon first, then the burger, and finished the peppers and onion in the grease. Wiped it down and Tossed it over the fire and pulled it out this am for the breakfast sandwich.

Dip a tightly rolled napkin or paper towel in some cooking oil and light. Makes an excellent fire starter and very cheap too.
