Well tonight was the last time I'll be cooking on the BGE. I got it a couple years ago for free, it was an older Egg that I upgraded with a DFMT, Spring assist hinge, and Stainless steel slider. I knew it had a crack in it when I replaced the hinge, but today I noticed a huge crack in the bottom opposite the other one.
It runs from the gasket through the bottom vent and into the bottom.
So there is basically a V section being held in place by the hinge band! Its expanding and contracting and I don't feel very comfortable using it on my deck like this.
So it was with heavy heart and empty stomach I threw in a couple Oak wine chunks with Royal Oak lump and grilled a 2.5lb Tri-Tip with a Santa Maria rub.
My wife tried to console me and said "don't worry, you'll find another one". Probably, but I don't know if I can go all Summer without it! PNW Eggfest is in September- I'm BUMMED!
