Definitely NOT!
After much debate, research and reading almost everything I can get my hands on. I decided to move forward and purchase a Yoder YS640 Competition (even though I don't compete).
I've owned the BGE for around 8 years and it's truly a "pickup truck" of a "jack of all" (for me a grill that can smoke) and it was responsible for putting to rest an 11 burner stainless steel gas burner.
I have gotten used to the small cooking surface (XL) and with my limited skills could never "dial-in" holding 220 for a long cook (10+ hours). This to me was not a "big" (pun intended) issue but, the cooking surface (no that I have grandkids and seemly every holiday more people show up for free food); This past Easter was the tipping point as the wife mentioned "one big (again pun intended) was not enough anymore,...Please consider getting another one.." (love that lady!!!).
So fast forward, I had totally decided on getting the Stump XL or the Fast Eddie ...but, after answering the above question. Decided I'll start with a pellet and let the "free food heard" grow a little more before I get an into the 1000+ Cubic inches of cooking surfaces (third grill!).
So this past Saturday, the delivery was made (got a great deal for a floor unit/unused) and since the "burn in period (1 hour 350). I delivered a full slab of Baby backs, apple sausage, and whole chickens.
