Cliff, I have nick names for all my grills. Rotten egg is fitting for the green egg. And it is a great cooker, I got it last July for a song. My 18.5 WSM I call it "old leaky". And I love both of them.Russ... Meant to ask you yesterday, is Rotten an actual opinion of your BGE or is that just your endearing term for it? I've been interested in the Kamado style cookers for a couple of years now. I wouldn't mind having one in my arsenal, but I'm waiting to see if Weber will venture into the market. I know if they make one, it will be best of the best.
