I won a prize from my work and it was advertised as a medium green egg. Before I claimed it I did LOTS of research on similar grills and asked friends that owned Green Eggs and after careful consideration, I chose to use the $$ that would have gone to a GE to a BK Keg. With all the versatility of this cooking machine and especially the portability I have no regrets. I've cooked everything from a Thanksgiving turkey and extra thick rib eye steaks to pizza and everything came out perfect. The steaks are some of the best I've ever whipped up. My wife is getting tired of me wanting to cook everything on it though. For Christmas guess what I got...lots of grilling accessories and gift cards to our local BBQ center. I think she's happy as well!!
