A total "guy product"


Can't you just hear them now? "Ladies, stay in the house and do what whatever is you do while us men will fire up the BIG GREEN EGG." For the second time in about two years, we know someone who has gotten one of these and is so excited he can hardly stand it. Our friend got his for his birthday last week, and we get to sample copious amounts of meat cooked on it next Tuesday. Yay. Another friend had us over for steaks one night, grilled on the BIG GREEN EGG, and let me testify that these were the best steaks I had ever had, outside of Hunter's Pub just up the road in Hamilton, Ga. Can I get a witness?
The friend who just recently had this greatness thrust upon him came into work Monday with the story about his first "tryst" with the BIG GREEN EGG. He had his parents over from out of town. It didn't turn out so well, though, because even though he bought some pricey meat, he was trying to deal with the BIG GREEN EGG in the dark with a flashlight, with his dad hovering around. And there were about 15 starving women and children inside his house waiting to be fed. Talk about pressure. So the way I see it, that was just a practice run for Tuesday's rendezvous with the BIG GREEN EGG.
They are made of ceramic and probably will not move if a hurricane comes through--which assuaged the fears of our friend's wife who was worried that someone might steal the BIG GREEN EGG from the backyard.
