Oh man those are going to be really good!!! About time for you to buy a 2nd big boy isn't it?? Figured you for the EggZilla size by now. Mike and I got a whole new lesson on packer prep at the Dizzy Pig competition class. Everything we were doing went against the way Chris did his award winning cooks. May have to do a drive by the pig camp the night those go on!! David I would love for you to show up ! Believe it or not Dan, the dude really does exist. And he knows how to drink bourbon! Mike

I have a large and with the adjustable rig it handles most of my cooks. There are times I wish I would have gotten an xl. 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.

I have a large egg and have been very happy with it. I use the adjustable rig and spider quite a bit.
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.

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.

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.

I have nothing to base that on, just curious. You're right, the XL's suck! 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. They require an expert! BaHaHaHahaHaHa!!!

It was more of a question to the group to help the OP.
