How an EGG is Made
Since 1974, producing the highest quality ceramic cookers has been the mission of Big Green Egg. We are not just setting the standard for excellence; we are constantly evolving our products with innovative ideas, and seek opportunities to make the best even better … this is what has made the EGG such an enduring brand.
For over a quarter-century, Big Green Egg has proudly manufactured our ceramic products in a state-of-the-art and ISO certified (International Organization for Standardization) manufacturing facility – literally one of its kind in North America. This certification ensures that our factory meets the highest standards for factory management, methods of production and production quality.
Since we can’t take you into our manufacturing plant, we’d like to bring the facility to you! Join us on a virtual journey through the crafting of a Big Green Egg. We hope you enjoy the ride!

As Big Green Egg has evolved over the years, significant changes have been made to keep it miles ahead of anything else on the market – state-of-the-art ceramics, a wide range of easily adjusted cooking temperatures, a stainless steel cooking grid and a permanent porcelain glaze to preserve our signature green color. A team of research and development specialists are continuously looking for new ways to make Big Green Egg even better.

The Most Versatile Cooking Device Ever…
Is it a Grill, an Oven or a Smoker?
Yes.
Grill
Sear the perfect steaks, pork chops or burgers on the EGG. High temperature “steak house” grilling – even at 750º F / 400º C – is quick and easy! Using the two dampers for accurate control, you can lower the heat to a more moderate temperature for other grilled foods. Fish and seafood turn out moist and tender with a flavor-packed crust unmatched by other grills.
Oven
Using the indirect cooking method with a convEGGtor, the Big Green Egg bakes bread, pizza, casseroles, cobblers and pies better than your kitchen oven … you may never cook indoors again! The Big Green Egg retains heat and moisture so well that foods don’t dry out! Poultry, lamb, beef and vegetables are naturally tastier because the juices and flavors stay locked inside.
Smoker
The insulating ceramics of the Big Green Egg allow you to precisely control the temperature even at low heat. A controllable 200 to 350°F / 93 to 177°C gives succulent results with turkey, ham, lamb, chicken, ribs or any of your favorite cuts, infusing them with the aromatic wood smoke flavor. Want to slow cook at low heat for sixteen to eighteen hours … no problem!
