- I take you through adjusting your EGG and show you why you are having issues with an underbite and/or your gasket getting rubbed off. I also show you how to check you have a good seal and what to do about it when you don't.

Thank you for the effort of making this film! You really helped fix my dome alignement.
Awesome. Just keep that bottom band super tight now. Really glad it helped.
Thank you I looked up other videos but they did not explain it very good. So I give you thanks all the way from the USA In the heart of Florida.
Extremely helpful to this new XL owner. Cheers!
No problem, I’m glad it helped.
Well done thanks! I'd add that I lit a small fire starter and pile of woodchips on the grill and shut the dome before I did my final tightening of the fasteners. I was able to see and dynamically eliminate any smoke leaks through fine adjustments before committing to the setup.
Thanks for standing in the cold just to help us out. Great video in great detail!
Best BGE alignment instructions on CZcams! Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thanks mate. From Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Probably one of the best videos on adjusting the bands on the big green egg I’ve seen in a bit.
My pleasure. I'm glad it helped.

Best video that explains how to adjust the newer style bands. The instructions are clear, and beautifully demonstrated. Great job!
Great video!!! Very informative with a great step by step process.. not too many videos with the newer hinge system.. thank you for taking the time and posting this!
Great video. I got my egg handed down and this made aligning the hood easy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Just acquired a newer used second green egg with the newer bands and you just answered all my questions on setting up these new bands. THANKS!

Thanks for the video. My BGE lids are aligned again !
Very helpful, thanks
Very helpful
Thank you
My egg is about 8 years old and has the design that has all the hinge tension at the center rear. This approach is a significant improvement, although it still needs the realignment.
One of my 4 large Eggs still has the old style bands. I love that the lid opens much wider with the old style bands.
very helpful
Perfect!
Thank you very much! I just upgraded my 13 year old large egg & noticed a bit of smoke leakage while smoking a pork butt.
Thank you! Is it the same fix with an XL?
Yes, but the bands need to be 2-3mm from the gasket line.
My egg came with four plastic spacers, which I believe were to help align the lid. Are they not required?
They’re great but the Eggs don’t come with them any more. They make sure your bands are level.
Oh yeah 🦾🦾🦾
I have a brand new large egg it looks like all is aligned correctly but my lid won't open all the way.
Any help is welcome
Can you take some photos of the hinge and mail them to enquires@meatsmokefire.co.uk
why not use the spacers that come with the band wouldn't that do the same thing?
They're great but most people chuck them out.
@@MeatSmokeFire yeah i figured that too i made sure to keep my original everything, box cardboard everything, luckily for me I've moved 6 times and never had a thing go wrong for any of the eggs.
