Hey all. My name is Sean, and I have been really bitten by the BBQ bug lately. I have always loved grilling, and I had this old Brinkmann charcoal grill. It wirked pretty good. Well, my wife and I put in a large patio a couple of weeks ago, so I treated myself to a weber smokey mountain. I made ribs a feew times, and smoked some salmon for my wife. Everything came out so good that I decided to bite the bullet.

So last week I bought an XL Big Green Egg, in a nice wooden table. Now I am really hooked, because the BGE is really amazing. Ive made steaks, burgers, a pizza, swordfish, shrimp and scallop kabobs, with pineapple.

My neighbors think I am crazy. I work late hours, I am a Police officer. Almost every night I am outside at about 3 am, firing up the EGG. Its really addicting.

You all have a great site here, it has helped me learn a Lot. Thanks.

My wife thinks i am nuts because I sit here all night and read about BBQ, and look at pictures of peoples meat,(grilled meat that is). I guess I am crazy, so is everyone on here, so I am in the right place.
