A guy who sells them (Derrick at clear choice in Grenada) told me not to get the XL because it's overkill for a family. He said it would use more charcoal. He talked me out of it and he sells them so that said a lot to me. My 2 pennies

Why is my mouth so dry this morning, when I drank so much last night?

The "cracking" you saw in the BC was not in the ceramic, it was in the glaze over the ceramic. It's supposed to be like that, just a different treatment to the outside of the grill.

I would agree with adam easter. I have bought several for clients, and Derrik at clear choice in Grenada has always given me a great deal and awesome service. He is also a ducks unlimited sponsor

Checked a couple of Green Egg "Egghead" forums......topic was XL vs L......overwhelmingly everyone said to go with the XL. Most said they now own both XL and L because the L didn't provide enough space at times. Also said there was NO difference in the performance between L and XL.....all the talk about issues with heats etc is just that....talk. That comes from people owning both.....gotta go with it.

I also heard that Big Green Egg and Bayou Classic were both coming out with a spinning wing decoy (mojo) this summer.....iI wonder which one will be the best.

I got an XL a month ago and it has been great. I have actually filled it to capacity a few times and was glad I had the XL. It does pretty good on charcoal usage. Over the BGE has been great. In my opinion, the XL has been worth the extra money.
