The Big Green Egg Advantage
What makes the Big Green Egg amazing is its versatility for any type of cooking. Its ceramic shell holds heat for even cooking, its excellent ventilation gives you great heat control, works great as a smoker, and can be shut down to snuff out remaining charcoal.
The EGG’s top vent cap is made of cast iron while the bottom vent is made from stainless steel. Its heavy ceramic shell holds heat and stops temperature fluctuations. If you dread the cleaning after every barbecue, the glazed interior makes it easy to clean. What more can you ask for?
The Big Green Egg is a legend amongst backyard chefs. It is able to handle temperatures of over 600 degrees and cook efficiently with temperatures as low as 200 degrees. This unit is perfect for searing steaks and smoking briskets. Because the ceramic shell is strong and able to withstand a wide range of temperatures, you never have to worry about it cracking. What makes this grill such a hit among the users is that the heat is held inside. Even at its hottest, the outside remains relatively cool. The design is so efficient. You’ll soon realize that you won’t need as much charcoal. When you are done with cooking, just close the vents to stop the remaining charcoal inside from burning. You can then save the unused charcoal for your next cookout.
Heat is controlled on this grill by a vent in the bottom and on top. These vents are very simple to use and it gives you a great deal of control. Its name may sound funny, but no mistake about it because the Big Green Egg is the real deal!
