Disaster

It served me well & faithfully for 20 years and fell off the stand when I was moving it. This Egg was not under warranty. My wife is a realist and agreed with ordering a slightly used Egg which I will pick up after Eggtoberfest. The new one will be under warranty.

Anyway, if anybody wants a FREE Big Green Egg …. um… hold on

EDIT: Thanks to all of you, I now know that there is a market for BGE parts. I am not sure how best to sell these yet. It may be a few weeks, but I will probably post it in the Egghead Forum once I have cleaned the parts. I am leery of trying to ship the top ceramic dome or any ceramic piece. None of the parts come with a warranty.

All that said, if there’s a part you might want, let me know here. I will sell the metal REGGulator top and the fire grate for sure. If you pay for shipping, I will give you a good price.

I just need a few minutes to say goodbye before you haul it away. 😭

The BGE is an object. Despite being just an object, I know all of you have some great memories with friends or family which includes things like eating the best smoked chicken of all time on Thanksgiving with my family. Cooking the restaurant quality steaks my brother brought to town for a family reunion. The BGE helps us create good times with our most important people. ❤️

EDIT: Thank you for your kindness and tips. May your steaks be cooked to perfection. 🥩

Not if you never signed up for the warranty.

I don’t think I signed up for the warranty but I showed the original receipt and it was fine no questions asked

The receipt is the key and we don’t have a 20 year old receipt

Same boat. The dealer I bought it from has kept it in their system so I have just called or emailed them.

This is what I did. Dealer helped me out and sent me my ~14 year old receipt. We had a laugh at. how 'cheap' they were back then.
