Like many specialty products, the Big Green Egg is currently available exclusively through biggreenegg.com and a network of Authorized Dealers (Retailers) who are knowledgeable about the Egg and its many features and pride themselves on customer support.

Big Green Egg does not recognize or offer a warranty on any Egg purchased from an unauthorized discount club or online reseller, so be wary of anyone claiming to be an online Big Green Egg dealer. 

Please see How the Egg Works to discover some of the amazing features of the Big Green Egg.

The Big Green Egg headquarters is located in Atlanta, GA. Please visit our Contact page for more information.

We know how excited you are to start cooking! Before you get grilling, we recommend you visit our Getting Started page and follow along our Guides to help assist your first few cooks.

Please don’t! Briquettes contain a variety of materials, including nitrates, chemicals, anthracite coal, limestone, treated wood, starch, sawdust or petroleum by-products. Does anyone really want to cook with those additives?

We recommend using Big Green Egg 100% Natural Lump Charcoal for a clean, controllable fuel source. Natural lump charcoal burns efficiently and produces very little ash, so cleanup is easy. Our Natural Charcoal Starters or Electric Starters are designed to start your EGG quickly and cleanly.

In simple terms, the volume of air flowing into and out of the Egg controls the temperature. By adjusting the lower draft door and the top vent cap, you are able to precisely regulate the flow of air – an increase in either or both openings will increase air flow and raise the temperature.

See How to Control the Temperature for more information. Some common reasons that a Big Green Egg will not get up to temperature are:

• Not using enough charcoal. We recommend filling the Egg with natural lump charcoal to the top of the fire box. Our guide will show you the proper amount of charcoal to use as well as the recommended lighting procedures.
• Using damp charcoal. Charcoal will retain moisture if it has been exposed to water, such as rain or humidity, even if the charcoal appears dry. Always store your Big Green Egg Natural Lump Charcoal away from the elements or in a sealed bin.
• Air flow is reduced by the round air holes in the fire box becoming clogged with ash, or excessive ash accumulation in the base of the Egg. Simply clean out ash using the Ash Tool and clear the holes in fire box to maximize air flow inside the Egg; check the openings occasionally and clean as needed.

Simply go to the online warranty registration. If you do not have access to the online form, your Authorized Dealer can register the warranty for you. Always keep the original receipt or proof of purchase as only Eggs sold by an Authorized Dealer are eligible for warranty support.

The Big Green Egg serial number is located on the inside of the dome back towards the hinge. The number is usually 11 characters and is stamped into the ceramic. Please visit our warranty registration page to register your Big Green Egg.

Please visit our warranty information page. Feel free to reach out with any further questions.

If your local dealer does not have the parts that you need in stock, they can easily order it for you or you can always shop replacement parts online.

Ash build-up should be removed regularly to maintain proper air flow in the fire box. The Big Green Egg features a distinctive 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 removing ash, wiping the outside, and brushing the cooking grid, regular 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.

We have a full line of cleaning products to help keep your Egg looking brand new. For more information on cleaning and maintenance, please read this blog.

All components of the Big Green Egg are available and can be purchased from your Authorized Big Green Egg Dealer or found online.
