Big Green Egg Parts

Sponsors

Unlike any other outdoor oven/grill the Big Green Egg is ready for cooking in just ten minutes. This can be achieved thanks to unique design and construction derived from ancient Oriental ceramic cooking model called kamado. Because of the way the Big Green Egg parts are constructed and put together, it has become THE barbecue grill everybody is talking about.

First of all, you may use the regular ceramic top for your cooking. But you may have a choice to utilize a special Dual Function Metal Top. This exclusive Big Green Egg part has been chosen by the majority of EGG backyard chefs because it gives the cook the power to set up the exact heat in the oven thanks to two temperature controls. One of the controls is a slide that regulates wide-ranging temperatures; the other is much smaller daisy wheel for fine-tuning hit regulation.

One of the Big Green Egg parts is the Stainless Steel Draft Door. Combining the usage of the Stainless Steel Draft Door with Dual Function Metal Top allows achieving truly precise and perfect cooking temperatures in the EGG.

All sizes of Big Green Egg except of the Mini are equipped with the Spring-Assisted Band. The band is a great help for the cooks when they need to open the lid as it can be lifted with just one hand and no other locking mechanism is required.

If you by chance did not paid attention to the temperature inside EGG while you’d been cooking and the hit exceeded 1100°F, you must check if the gasket kit is still there because it probably melted. In case it did, there are ready Replacement Felt Gasket Kits in the authorized Big Green Egg shops. With the purchase you will receive instructions how to apply the self-adhesive gasket material to wrap it around the Lid and the Base.

At the bottom of the EGG there is a Fire Box. This part is responsible for holding the Fire Grate and on top of the box the Fire Ring is placed. The three Big Green Egg parts work together in a special way: the charcoal fills up the Fire Box and then the Fire Grate covers the charcoal and keeps the charcoal on the bottom of the Fire Box. After placing the Fire Ring you need the Porcelain Coated Cooking Grid on top and you basically ready for your cooking adventure as you can put your food on the grid now.

While children are around, you don’t need to worry about them burning themselves because the ceramic surface doesn't get as hot as a metal cooker. The inventive design draws air into the lower draft door, through the charcoal, and out the damper top.

After that the cleanup is no stress out. The EGG exterior has a lifetime glaze that sustains its distinctive looks. Using a damp cloth to wipe away food stains after cooking is more than enough. Inside, the heat burns off any grease build-up from all the steaks, vegetables, and burgers. It is much like a self-cleaning oven. The EGG really gets to do the job for you!

What you now need is a good EGG cooking book with great cooking recipes.
