  Ever Bought Something That Quietly Changed You?

  Big green egg, Fountain pens, knives with quality steel and sharpening stones are a few that come to mind. You realize pretty quickly the “they don’t make them like they used to” sentiment of slowing down and enjoying the process rather than convenience.

  The Smarter Scrubber Grill Brush

  That is the point of the video and the grill scrub. But this sub is BIFL. IMO, you can't claim something is BIFL when it is released for less than a few months. It has not been time tested. Furthermore, the Big Green Egg V-Notch Grid Cleaner is designed and manufactured In The USA. IMO It is BIFL
