The
Big Green Egg is the most flexible grill available and could be used for smoking, grilling or baking. The Egg has unbelievable temp. control, that allows you to cook almost anything on it. The thick ceramic walls and draft doors allow you to sear steaks at very high temp. (around 750 degrees) or slow cook ribs at a low temp. of 200 to 250 degrees. Or if you are craving pizza or bread, the Big Green Egg bakes better than a brick oven. Here are some suggestions to make cooking with your Big Green Egg grill even more pleasing:
Grilling
Most of the people are well-known with grilling, but in case, grilling refers to cooking the food straightly over coals at a moderate to high temperature. The Big Green Egg can go up to 750F for searing steaks, or you can lower the heat for slow cooking . Use the variable dampers at the bottom of the Egg together with the daisy wheel at the top for super temp. control for your favorite grilling recipe.
Smoking
When it relates to smoking, the Egg's thick ceramic walls are perfect insulation for cooking at long, low temperatures needed to tenderize and smoke meats. While setting up your EGG for smoking, layer lump (wood) charcoal with your preferred wood smoking chips (we like grape). Add extra charcoal, then extra wood chips; repeat until the firebox is full. You can use either normal fire starters or an electrical lighter to start the charcoal (never use lighter fluid!). You're prepared to begin cooking when the temp. has reached 250 degrees. One of the wonderful things about the Egg is that with the ceramic material and the fact that you always cook with the lid down, you can let your grill cook for long time periods (even over-night) without worrying about flare-ups or overcooking your food. Think about adding the plate setter or the rib rack to make your smoking experience nicer.
Baking
The Big Green Egg is well known for its versatility and that is most evident when baking breads, dessert or even pizza in your Egg. You can turn your Egg into fire brick oven simply by the addition of a plate setter and baking stone (among my favorite big Green Egg accessories). Eggheads love baking pizzas in their grills, thus you can find numerous pizza recipes at the Egghead forum. Once you've tried a brick oven pizza in your Egg, believe me, you'll never order pizza again!
