Recipe For Meatball Subs On A Primo Grill

This recipe was done on a Primo grill, but it has also been created many times on my Big Green Egg (BGE).  This recipe was modified from a recipe from Throwdown with Bobby Flay, where he competed against the owner of Maroni Cuisine.

This recipe calls for meatballs on Ciabatta bread, but the meatballs and sauce goes just as well over spaghetti.

Meatballs Ingredients:

• 1 pounds ground beef
• 8 tbs dried bread crumbs
• 4 large eggs
• 4 ounces milk
• 12 tbs Romano cheese
• 6 tbs Spanish onion, finely diced
• 4 cloves fresh garlic
• 4 tbs Italian parsley leaves
• 4 tbs basil leaves

Review Of Primo Oval XL Grill

This is a review of the Primo Oval XL grill and smoker.  I have been pondering this purchase for some time and I thank all of you for your comments and suggestions.  I purchased the Primo to replace my Medium Big Green Egg (BGE).  I was not replacing my BGE because I was not satisfied with it.  To the contrary, the BGE was the best grill and smoker I have ever used, and I will continue to keep my BGE recipes listed here.  I replaced it only because I needed a bigger grill.  That being said, here are my experiences with my new Primo.

• Receiving The Primo
  • To begin with, the weight of the Primo was over 350 lbs when shipped.  This shipment included:
    • Primo Oval Smoker Ceramic Charcoal Grill – Extra Large
    • Primo Oval Cradle – Extra Large With Casters
    • Primo Cast Iron Divider for XL Oval Firebox
    • Primo Pizza Stone – For Round & XL Oval
  • This is one of the down sides to the Primo, that is, there are fewer Primo dealers than BGE dealers.  Thus, it may be necessary to order the Primo and have it shipped.  I could not find a Primo dealer in the D.C. area.

Should I Replace Big Green Egg With Primo Grill?

For some time now I have owned a Big Green Egg. The problem is that I have a medium BGE, and I need more room for grilling.  I am considering replacing my BGE with a Primo Oval XL.  If anyone out there has any experience, either positive or negative, with the Primo I would be grateful to hear from you.

I hate to lose my BGE, but I just need more room.
