Pugs, what size is your BGE? It looks about right for what I want to do.
Mine is a medium (15" diameter grate). It's fine for two racks of ribs and a shoulder or brisket of 6-7 lbs. I got a great deal on it from another Campfire denizen but if I had to buy another I would go with a large.
I got the LG but if doing over I'd go XL.
Even better - no man ever said they wish they had bought a smaller grill or a smaller TV.
The Chimney starter works well for me and I find that it gets up to temp quicker than starting the charcoal in the egg itself.
