I wasn't even sure if they were selling the xxl egg as they made an announcement last year or the year prior with a teaser pic, but didn't hear much after that. Anyways I was in my local ace getting some propane for the camper and saw this beast out on the floor :-D. Figured I would share.
Holy crap is this thing huge in its overall size. I have an XL and this one makes it looks quite tiny. They had an XL next to it and I tried to get some decent shots. I talked to the folks there and they sold one to the guy in the photo.
Now I don't see any real reason to have one this large other than simply for bragging rights. You could get almost 4 XL's for the price they are selling it for, which the ACE folks were the ones to point out. Still was fun to see in person. I'd take one if you gave it to me :becky:
I don't know the official weight and I'm sure the specs are up online. On the glazed cement floor it rolled relatively easy. I wouldn't want to move this sucker more than once :biggrin1:. The lid opened without any trouble. A tad heavier than the xl.
Really the smoking capacity isn't that great. You can see in this pic a guy who bought one and only has about 6-7 butts on it.
Tried to get some reference for the grate size with my dumb hand
Another reference shot
Here is the xxl on the left and xl on the right. Not the best comparison pic, but in person the xxl is visually so much larger. If you took the guts out of the xxl I could get in it, crouch down and you could close the lid without any trouble:loco:
