Description
The Big Green Egg Large is a versatile ceramic kamado designed for everyday outdoor cooking, family meals and entertaining. Its generous 46cm cooking surface provides plenty of room for larger meals, while the compact ceramic design makes it suitable for a wide range of garden and patio setups. The Large is a particularly flexible choice for those who want one outdoor cooking system that can handle everything from quick weekday meals to longer cooks and weekend gatherings.
The Large EGG can be used for a wide variety of cooking methods. Grill directly over charcoal for steaks, burgers, fish and vegetables, or use indirect heat for roasting chicken, joints of meat and other larger dishes. Lower-temperature cooking is well suited to smoking and slow cooking, making the EGG suitable for dishes such as brisket, pulled pork and ribs. With the appropriate accessories, it can also be used for baking pizzas, bread and desserts, giving you the opportunity to experiment with a much wider range of outdoor cooking than a conventional barbecue.
Temperature control is managed through the EGG’s airflow system, allowing you to adjust the cooking environment to suit the food and cooking method. The ceramic construction helps retain heat, while the insulated cooking chamber provides a stable environment for both higher-temperature grilling and slower cooks. The Large is also compatible with Big Green Egg’s extensive range of accessories, giving you plenty of scope to adapt the cooking setup as your interests develop.
The current Large model is supplied with the Dual Zone Essentials Kit, allowing different cooking arrangements to be created within the EGG. This provides the flexibility to cook directly and indirectly, or combine different cooking methods during the same meal. The supplied components include the parts needed to create these cooking zones, making the Large a useful starting point for anyone looking to explore different kamado cooking techniques.
With its larger cooking area, the Large is well suited to cooking for families and groups. It can also be expanded with accessories such as baking stones, additional cooking surfaces, rotisserie systems and multi-level cooking setups, allowing the EGG to evolve with the way you cook. A suitable base or stand is required for the Large, with options available to suit freestanding installations, tables and outdoor kitchen projects.
Whether you’re looking for a ceramic barbecue for regular family cooking, a versatile smoker for longer weekend cooks or a flexible outdoor oven for pizza and baking, the Big Green Egg Large offers a broad range of possibilities in one cooking system. Roberts Leisure supplies Big Green Egg products in the Isle of Man and can provide advice on choosing the right EGG, accessories and base setup for your outdoor cooking space.
