I will have another egg soon. I have the bbq guru cyber q. I don't think you could go wrong with the stoker either.

The cast iron grate is a bit heavy, but I like the way it sears. Also, I just like the way it looks (which is irrelevant to most people). I'm just curious, but what (if any) difference is there in charcoal consumption between the L and XL? Also, I would think that temperature control on the XL may be a bit more difficult. I have nothing to base that on, just curious.

Also, I would think that temperature control on the XL may be a bit more difficult. I have nothing to base that on, just curious. Consumption is about the same. Maybe a bit better on the LG. However, you're spot on with regards to temp control. I'm told the lower profile domes on the XL effect the original intent of the cooker. The higher domed LG definitely maintains a more consistent temp. Without a PM anyway. Also, believe there's a new higher dome XL model out now. Proud to be a true Sandlapper!! Go Nats!!!!

Also, I would think that temperature control on the XL may be a bit more difficult. I have nothing to base that on, just curious. Not much that I can tell as far as consumption wise, and the beauty is you just give it a stir, re-light it and you're off to the races again. As far as temp control, each size egg is a little different, but the XL is not hard to zero in after a couple cooks. The secret with any egg is to not overshoot your target temp. It's much easier to take it up than to take it back down. Last edited by BOWHUNR; 02/19/14. Know fat, know flavor. No fat, no flavor.

Stick with your teenie weenie Large so you can save a couple bucks on Lump and justify owning it. Oh, and I doubt you could have figured out how to stabilize the temps on an XL anyway.
