I'm an Egghead. As in, Big Green Egg.
Bought myself the "Large" size, which is actually smaller than a standard Weber dome grill.
It's made of ceramic, about an inch thick, and I burn only hardwood charcoal.

This thing, in my opinion, cooks the best tasting & most moist (moistest?) chicken, fish, veggys, etc of any grill I've ever owned. You can also fire it up super hot, like over 800 degrees, and char a nice steak like nobody's business.

My favorite dish is Alaskan salmon, accompanied by MD Eastern Shore sweet corn on the cob, & perhaps a side of ABT's. (Atomic Buffalo Turds)

My big old Weber Gennesis grill served me pretty well for about 5 years, but I retired it to my office after a few cooks on The Egg.

Weber kettles served me well for years as well.

Hell, they all make great food with the right person behind the apron. (Powerpig, where are you?)

Shoot, down where Bot (RIP) lives, many people grill in old car wheels with some wire mesh on top. You're only as grill-less as you want to be

Down to just a Weber kettle and a Weber Q200 portable. My hand-me-down POS Sunbeam finally rotted into the ground. Once I get my patio done I'll have to fill the spot with something more substantial.

I don't have any favorites, I grill everything and anything Mar.-Nov. with more infrequent use in the winter months. I use gas when I'm in a hurry or it's something we really want the flavor of the meat to come through, charcoal when I have the time and want it smoky.

Sometimes there's nothing better than a plain old 80/20 burger over charcoal.

I've kept a lot of recipes from the folks here and will experiment with them at some point, just never seem to get beyond the usual for no other reason than laziness.

I have kind of given up the bourbon I will still have one out or during hunting season, but quit keeping it around the house a couple of years ago. I've developed some sort of allergy to the esters in the bourbon (my MD/drinking buddy's theory, anyway) that shows up after 2+.

During the summer, I switch to vodka anyway for cocktails, but don't think I've had more than one in the last month

(don't misinterpret this--I have had enough beer to sink a battleship in the past month)

After cooking the shoulder Saturday, I brined and smoked 20#s of wild alaskan salmon at the house yesterday that a friend shipped me.

Oh, the humanity.

I would be totally screwed if that happened to me; I'll have the occasional beer but, I get to feeling like the Good Year blimp after one or two frosties.

I like them vodka martoonys but, bourbon is truly my drug of choice.
