The EGGHEAD Christmas List

10/29/2014

Quote a few people have asked me "what does an EGGHEAD want for Christmas?" I have compiled a list of my favorite accessories that any EGGHEAD would love!! 

MINI MAX BIG GREEN EGG 
For the cook on the go.                                       MSRP: $589

The Mini Max is the newest Egg added to BGE’s lineup. It is designed for one thing: mobility. Whether it’s tailgating or camping, the Mini Max is easy to bring along with you.

LOOFTLIGHTER 
For the cook that’s in a hurry.                                 Approx. $80

The Looftlighter uses superheated air to light your fire in 60 seconds. Plus it has a built in bottle opener! 


CERAMIC GRILL WORKS 2 TIER SWING RACK 
For the cook that needs more room.                       $135 - $185

The CGW 2 Tier Sing Rack isn’t your average flimsy add-a-rack. This thing is as solid as a manhole cover and can support whatever weight you can throw on top of it. It sears and seasons like cast iron. It’s pricey, but you get what you pay for.

KICK ASH BASKET

For the cook that likes to Kick Ash!                                           $49.99 - $64.99

The Kick Ash Basket takes the work out of getting your fire started. Simply “Shake that ash and light that fire”! 


PLATE SETTER LIFTER
For the cook with blistered fingers.

$39.99

THERMAPEN
For the cook that needs precision                           $96

The Thermoworks Thermapen is a precision thermometer. With an accurate 3 second reading, you will never over cook another steak. 


GRILL GRATE
For the cook that likes the perfect sear marks.        $45.99-$99.99

The Grill Grate eliminates flare ups at high temperatures and creates the perfect sear marks resulting in juicier and tender meats.

The iGrill made by iDevices is a wireless thermometer like no other. The iGrill connect to any iPhone or Android phone via a Bluetooth connection. The application records and charts the entire cook for you. Sit comfortably in your easy chair as you monitor your cook via your smartphone.

LODGE CAST IRON
For the cook that wants more from a grill.             PRICE VARIES  

Lodge Cast Iron on a Big Green Egg is a great combination. Cast iron dishes by themselves are great. Adding the fire to them makes them even better!

CALL DEALER FOR $


The cast iron plate setter is virtually  indestructible. The cooking grid on the top creates a great crust!

An EGGtoberfest for the History Books

You know you did something correct when you have a line all day long like we did yesterday. It had to be 50 deep for most of the day. Very, very cool. We cooked so hard yesterday that I am sore today. 

It was so much fun cooking with people on our team that drove from Massachusetts (20 hours), Missouri (12), Florida (7.5), Tennessee and Georgia. Wait, and I came from Texas. These were all folks we have met online through Instagram, Twitter, etc. Our cook would not have been possible without them and they worked their tails off. Meat Church and I owe each of you!

We went with a very ambitious cook considering our main dish\contest entry was sushi. But, we were willing to take the risk to do something a little more chefy. Our maple bacon cookies, corn dog brisket bites and Spanish paella seemed to be well liked.

There were so many cool moments yesterday. Getting to cook with my brother from another mother, Matt Pittman. (BTW, let me tell you something. That guy is passionate about Egging and can cook his ass off.) Winning 2nd Place out of 65 in the Recipe Contest Entry.Linkie Marais leaving her demo area just to come try our food and take a pic.  Being literally the last people to leave Eggtoberfest because we hung out and drank some cold pops and ate leftovers for hours in the parking lot. That is why the Egghead community is so d*mn awesome!

Be on the lookout for the BGE video. We can't wait for next year. Enjoy some pics....
