The Big Green Egg is the most versatile grill available and can be used for smoking, grilling or baking. The Egg has unbelievable temperature management, which permits you to cook almost anything on it. The thick ceramic walls & draft doors allow you to sear steaks at high temperatures (around 750 degrees) or slow cook ribs at a low temperature of 200-250 degrees. Or if you're craving pizza or bread, Big Green Egg bakes better than a brick oven. Here are several tips to make cooking with your Big Green Egg grill even more enjoyable:

Grilling

Most people are well-known with grilling, but just in case, grilling means cooking the food directly over coals at an average to high temperature. The Big Green Egg can go around 750F for searing steaks, or you can lower the heat for slow cooking (mmm... ribs). Use the adjustable dampers at the bottom of the Egg together with the daisy wheel at the top for super temperature control for your desired grilling recipe.

Smoking

When it comes to smoking, the Egg's thick ceramic walls are ideal insulation for cooking at long, low temperatures required to tenderize and smoke meats. When setting up your EGG for smoking, layer lump (wood) charcoal with your favorite wood smoking chips (we like grape). Add extra charcoal, then more wood chips; repeat until the firebox is full. You can use either normal fire starters or an electric lighter to begin the charcoal (do not use lighter fluid!). You're ready to start cooking when the temperature has reached 250 degrees. Among the great points about the Egg is that with the ceramic material and the fact that you always cook with the lid down, you can permit your grill cook for long time periods (even overnight) without worrying about flare-ups or overcooking your food. Consider adding the plate setter or the rib rack to make your smoking experience better.

Baking

Big Green Egg is known for its adaptability and that is most visible when baking breads, dessert or even pizza in your Egg. You can turn your Egg into fire brick oven just by adding a plate setter and baking stone (among my favorite big Green Egg accessories). Eggheads love baking pizzas in their grills, thus you can find a lot of pizza recipes at the Egghead forum. And When you've tried a brick oven pizza in your Egg, honestly, you'll never order pizza again!
