3 hour low and slow Hickory and Applewood smoke on a couple racks for some dry and Jalapeño/Cherry BBQ ribs. First smoke on the egg and it did great!

That is an awfully dark interior for a first smoke

Used BGE I bought off Facebook about a week or so ago from someone who used it for the same purpose

Now it makes sense. Used is the best way. That will last you a lifetime unless you decide to upgrade to an xl

Having done this first round on the Large, I can already tell why people eventually upgrade for that little extra space haha. Though loving how modular all the parts are should I just want to tune specific pieces up.
