100% Premium Oak and Hickory Natural Lump Charcoal Big Green Egg painstakingly sources their natural charcoal to ensure that it contains no fillers, nitrates, chemicals, anthracite coal, limestone, treated wood or petroleum products. Big Green Egg charcoal is premium carbonized wood with NO additives whatsoever.

HOW IT WORKS

Often copied, but never equaled... there is only one, original Big Green Egg - The Ultimate Cooking Experience!

CONDUCTION Conduction is the basic way that heat moves from the fire, through the grill grate and into the food you are cooking. Metal is a particularly good heat conductor and the metal grids you grill on should be thoroughly heated before you begin to cook so the food gets a blast of energy at the onset of cooking. The amount of heat coming from the charcoals has little effect on how fast the heat transfers through the meat hotter charcoals simply mean a crustier finish to your food.

CONVECTION Unlike Conduction, which moves heat to the food and through it by way of the metal grills, Convection moves heat around the food. The design of the Big Green Egg develops air currents from underneath the Firebox moving the hot air through the grid and up and around the dome. Circulating hot air then forces cooler air down towards the charcoals where it is heated and then rises again continuously.

RADIANT HEAT Using Radiant Heat is completely different from other techniques. It’s a form of electromagnetic energy that is directed at the food you cook.

In the EGG, heated radiant air reflects off the coals, up the side walls and lid of the EGG creating an air-tight ceramic chamber that keeps food moist while cooking.

LUMP CHARCOAL? 100% Premium Oak and Hickory Natural Lump Charcoal

Unlike some lump charcoal and briquettes on the market today, all natural Big Green Egg charcoal is pure carbonized hardwood, with NO additives whatsoever. Big Green Egg consistently sources their charcoal to make sure it contains no fillers, chemicals, treated wood, or petroleum by-products of any kind.

There are many reasons that top chefs demand the Big Green Egg brand of Natural Lump Charcoal - the optimum recommended fuel for your EGG. It lights easily, gets up to temperature quickly and burns for hours on end with no fuss or bother. Plus, it burns hotter and more efficiently with more BTU’s than charcoal briquettes - meaning that your steaks sear perfectly every time, and your low and slow roast will cook for hours at the proper temperature.

But, most importantly, your food will taste better - with that signature lump aroma and without any risk of harsh chemicals or odors that can be released when cooking with briquettes or lesser lump charcoal brands.

Think Natural, Think Green... and ask for the Big Green Egg brand of 100% Premium Oak and Hickory Natural Lump Charcoal.

Taste the difference!

SMOKING WOODS

The addition of wood smoke to meats or even vegetables is what gives barbecue its distinguishing flavor.

ALDER - A very delicate wood with a subtle sweet flavor. Commonly used to smoke salmon, but it goes well with most fish, pork, poultry and light-meat game birds.

APPLE - A very mild smoke with a subtle sweet, fruity flavor. This wood is ideal for poultry, beef, pork (especially ham), game birds, lamb and some seafood.

BEECHNUT - Produces a mild, somewhat delicate flavor. Since it is a hardwood, it burns longer for smoking.

CHERRY - Burns with a mild smoke but imparts a rich sweetness that’s a good match for most foods. Commonly combined with hickory and/or oak.

GOURMET BLEND - A unique blend of Hickory, Apple, Sassafras and Wild Cherry.

Great on beef, pork, poultry, fish, and game.

GRAPE - A tart, fruity flavor that works well with poultry, small game birds, lamb, pork and sausage. Use this wood sparingly.

HICKORY - Imparts a sweet, yet strong bacon-flavor that works with just about all meat cuts, but it’s especially popular with pork and ribs.

WHISKEY CHIPS - These are made from 100% charred white oak aging barrels. A strong, sweet smoke flavor with a tang.

MAPLE - Sugar Maple has a smoky, mellow and slightly sweet taste. Good with pork, poultry, cheese, and small game birds.

MESQUITE - A strong and earthy flavor that is ideal for most red and dark meats, and is one of the hottest burning woods.

OAK - Assertive but pleasant with a smooth mellow smoke, Oak is great for all types of meats, especially beef. Perfect for briskets.

PEACH - A sweet, fruity flavor that’s similar to other fruit wood. Great when grilling pork, poultry and small game birds.

PEAR - Similar to peach, pear wood smokes a light, sweet and fruity flavor that works with pork, poultry and small game birds.

PECAN - A subtle richness that is somewhat nutty in flavor and described as a mellower form of Hickory. Works well on all meats.

PERSIMMON - Exotic, disctinctive smoking wood from the Ozarks. Some Ozarkians won’t use anything else.

SASSAFRAS - Pungent and sweet, this wood gives beef, pork or game a rich aroma.

SUGAR MAPLE - A sweet, mild smoke, that works well with pork, poultry and even veggies. Great with ham.

SWEETWOOD BLEND - A wonderful mix of apple, cherry, peach, pear, and maple that gives any type of meat a great flavor.

WHITE CEDAR - The slightly spicy flavor works well with the natural sweetness of honey, apricot, or onion.

BASIC TEMP. GUIDE

In a Big Green Egg you can grill, smoke, roast and bake with precise temperature control for any type of cook!

Direct Grilling When grilling direct, food is placed over the fire and cooked by direct exposure to the flame and heat. It’s the ideal way to cook steaks, chops, burgers, boneless chicken breasts, kabobs, fish fillets, many vegetables and other quick-cooking foods.

Generally, foods that are tender, less than two inches thick and boneless are good candidates for direct grilling at temperatures between 275°F and 750°F.

Indirect Grilling, Roasting and Rotisserie With indirect grilling and roasting, the food is not exposed to direct flame/heat, as a convEGGtor or Drip Pan is placed beneath the food to deflect the heat. Food is cooked by the convection process which radiates surrounding heat from the coals, side walls and dome of the EGG … there’s no need for a separate rotisserie device because meats are naturally juicier when slow roasted in the EGG at temperatures around 375°F.

Smoking

Cooking slowly over low heat infused with wood flavor is what smoking – and what some call “real barbecue” – is all about. Cooking “low and slow” breaks down connective tissue and tenderizes tougher cuts of meat like beef brisket, pork shoulder, pork butts, and spare ribs. For smoking these kinds of foods, cooking times are measured in hours rather than minutes – and it is well worth the wait! The result is succulent, fall-off-the-bone tenderness with the tangy, complex combination of spices, smoke and natural meat flavors. Of course, you can also smoke other types of foods that may not fit the usual profile. Fish, turkey, nuts, vegetables, and even cheeses do not need to be tenderized, but can taste even better when kissed with the essence of wood smoke over low heat between 175°F and 275°F.

SAFETY TIPS

Please read the important information below before using your new Big Green Egg. DO USE extreme caution when HANDLING OR REMOVING hot cooking surfaces including the cooking grid, convEGGtor or the pizza baking stone. The metal cooking grid and ceramics will be extremely hot. Place them somewhere where they can’t burn anyone or come into contact with combustible surfaces. Always use protective gloves and gripping tools to avoid burns. Always exercise caution and keep children, pets and clothing away from an EGG while in use.

LIFT or REMOVE the COOKING GRID with the Grill Gripper. Hold the Gripper so that one prong grips the cooking grid from underneath. If you try to grip from directly above the grill you won’t have enough cantilever force to lift it. ALWAYS use a heat protective glove when handling any parts of an EGG while in use!

ALWAYS TAKE CARE WHEN HANDLING HINGE ASSEMBLY, TOP VENT CAP AND STAINLESS STEEL DRAFT DOOR TO AVOID POSSIBLE INJURY FROM HOT SURFACES OR METAL EDGES. ALWAYS USE EXTREME CARE WHEN MOVING, TRANSPORTING, LOADING OR UNLOADING AN EGG AS THE PRODUCT IS HEAVY AND PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE CAN OCCUR IF DROPPED OR TIPPED OVER. EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN HANDLING, LOADING/UNLOADING AN EGG TO AVOID ANY INJURY FROM METAL PARTS OR HOT SURFACES. NEVER ATTEMPT TO PULL, ROLL OR MOVE A HOT EGG – CAUTION! COALS ARE HOT WHEN IN USE AND MAY CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE IF EGG IS TIPPED OVER. USE YOUR EGG IN A SAFE and LEVEL SPOT. DO NOT place an EGG on a slope, uneven deck surface or under low trees or branches or in any area where it can be knocked or tipped over. Use the locking casters on the Nest wheels once the EGG is moved into position to help keep it in place.

ALWAYS PULL, DO NOT PUSH AN EGG WHEN ROLLING IT – AND NEVER ATTEMPT TO MOVE A HOT EGG. CAUTION, COALS ARE HOT WHEN IN USE AND MAY CAUSE INJURY IF EGG IS TIPPED OVER. When moving your EGG in the metal nest, place both hands on the Nest or Handler and pull the cool EGG behind you. Don’t push it ahead of you.

The Nest or Handler ARE NOT designed to roll over uneven surfaces or terrain such as gravel, or to be rolled on soft soil or grass. Always make sure you have stable footing and have somebody helping if necessary. Do not attempt to move an EGG unless it’s completely cool and doesn’t have any hot charcoal inside.

Periodically check the nuts and bolts for tightness and alignment. If you roll or move your EGG frequently, check the casters, Nest and Handler bolts more often to maintain proper performance and alignment. The band hardware should be checked after assembly, and again as needed to maintain the dome-to-base alignment. Checking the tightness of these fittings after the first few uses is highly recommended, along with a rechecking at least once a year. Band and Hinge assembly should be checked regularly for proper operation and tightness.

NEVER USE LIGHTER FLUID OR ANY FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS IN AN EGG Big Green Egg Natural Lump Charcoal lights easily when using our All Natural SpeediLight® Fire Starters, Electric Charcoal Starter or our new EGGniter for best results.

NEVER use charcoal briquettes, lighter fluids or any flammable liquids in your EGG. This may void the Warranty, and will certainly make your food taste bad!

AVOID BACKDRAFTS or FLASHBACK. Once an EGG is lit, always carefully vent or “burp” it before opening the dome fully by cracking it slowly a few times about an inch or two first.

SAFETY TIPS

Please read the important information below before using your new Big Green Egg. Use extra caution when opening a hot EGG with closed vents, as the sudden rush of air can cause a dangerous flare up. If you have a flame flare-up – quickly close the lid and the air vents to control the flame, and use extreme caution when re-opening your EGG. It is always advisable to wear heat resistant gloves, and to take care to protect yourself. DO NOT allow children to play near a hot EGG or to open the dome!

DO NOT attempt to remove or adjust Firebox when it is hot or contains any warm charcoal, and DO NOT attempt to remove any lit charcoal from the Firebox. The internal ceramics will remain very hot for long periods. Caution – Handle with Care.

DO NOT look down into the top vent when the EGG is in use or if the charcoal is lit. This is dangerous behavior. Hot air can burn or singe you, and can cause injury.

DO USE CAUTION when touching the exterior of an EGG – exterior surfaces are HOT when in use.

Always keep children, pets, and combustible items away from your EGG. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COOK with the top vent cap removed. Your EGG will accelerate to very hot temperatures quickly and you cannot control temperature without the adjustable vent cap in place. NEVER leave an EGG unattended with the cap removed!

Do keep the Patented LOWER Draft Door Spark Screen closed to prevent fire hazards. This will minimize any sparks or hot coals from exiting the lower draft door. ALWAYS TAKE CARE WHEN HANDLING STAINLESS STEEL DRAFT DOOR AND SCREEN TO AVOID POSSIBLE INJURY FROM METAL EDGES. Always close both vents fully upon conclusion of cooking to cut off air supply and prevent the EGG from reaching extreme temperatures.

NEVER use WATER to extinguish CHARCOAL IN AN EGG. Simply close both air vents and it will extinguish itself – close the top vent cap fully and slide lower draft door to tightly closed position.

Use extreme caution when re-opening the dome unless the EGG is completely cool as the rush of air can re-ignite the charcoal.

DO NOT PLACE ANY EGG directly on a wood surface or on or near any combustible surface! The bottom of the ceramic vessel does generate significant heat when in use, and may cause combustion if placed directly on – or in proximity to – any combustible material.

DO NOT USE A TABLE NEST TO SUPPORT AN EGG UNLESS THE EGG IS HOUSED WITHIN A TABLE OR AN ISLAND OR OTHER CUSTOM SURROUND! THE LOW-PROFILE TABLE NEST IS NOT DESIGNED OR INTENDED AS A FREE-STANDING SUPPORT for your EGG, and the EGG can tip over if not supported properly. Note that only the Mini and MiniMax have a low-profile Nest or Carrier designed to be used as a free-standing base.

THE EGG IS DESIGNED TO BE USED IN A METAL NEST OR WITH A METAL TABLE NEST, PROVIDING AN AIR GAP BELOW THE EGG – however you must exercise caution and not place an EGG directly over combustible material such as ground cover or an extremely dry wood surface even if using a Table Nest.

Although a concrete paver block (non-porous) or granite tile can be used to support the EGG, it is recommended that these be sufficiently thick for proper heat protection. For optimum heat protection, a Metal Table Nest placed over a granite tile may be used in combination – this is suggested if the EGG is placed over a wood surface and is routinely used for long cooks or high temperature cooking. A granite tile is typically not very thick, and will not affect overall height significantly when used with a Metal Table Nest.

EGG COMPONENTS

Know the lingo and get familiar with every part that makes a Big Green Egg the “Ultimate Cooking Experience”!

STAINLESS STEEL COOKING GRID

PATENTED DUAL FUNCTION METAL TOP TEL-TRU TEMPERATURE GAUGE

CERAMIC FIRE RING CAST IRON FIRE GRATE

CERAMIC FIRE BOX

PATENTED STAINLESS STEEL DRAFT DOOR

OPENING OF THE FIRE BOX SHOULD LINE UP WITH THE DRAFT DOOR OPENING

ADDITIONAL NOTES All Big Green Egg Fire Boxes are manufactured with a vertical cut that runs straight up from the draft opening – this is not a crack. This cut allows for repeated heat expansion and contraction without putting stress on the ceramics. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL HOLES IN THE EGG; doing so will void your warranty and most likely will damage the EGG. The Big Green Egg features an elegant green exterior with a lifetime glaze that maintains its good looks and wipes clean easily without chemical cleaners. Inside, residual heat burns off any grease build-up – just like a self-cleaning oven. Other than wiping the outside and brushing the cooking grid, cleaning is not necessary.

As part of annual maintenance, removal and brushing off the internal parts is recommended for optimal function of the EGG. DO NOT USE ANY CHEMICAL CLEANERS IN THE EGG.
