Big Green Egg® - Grilling Demo Video

[punchmaster123]

my dad really wants one of these

[flossiefey]

cool clip thanks for sharing ..

[koryan]

love the taste of a charcoal cooked food, but gas bbq is much more convenient and gives you something to do 

[grumman581]

Only 600 degrees? I did a "Tim Allen" on a propane grill once and I was able to get over 1200 degrees. I know this because the cast aluminum melted and started dripping and splattering across my shoes. Ooops... Running unregulated propane can do that for / to you... Let's just say that it could sear a steak *very* fast...

[jimsmith59]

temp gauge went up so fast because you had the lid up and cool then dropped it down onto the already hot coals - it was already that hot

[bbqguys]

@ardoinjc Yes it is very frustrating. Big Green Egg® does not allow anyone to sell their products online. We are not able to carry them on our site. If you are interested in a ceramic grill, I recommend you check out Primo, Grill Dome, or Saffire. We have videos on all of them on our channel, bbqguys.

[reginajungco]

are this big green egg available in the philippines?

[habs798693]

I saw this bbq on Chef At Home. It looks fantastic. 0-700 degrees in no time!

[gosman949]

This is the new Hasty Bake. I love my Hasty Bake but I have to feed the fire all the time.

[bobbyp28]

you didn.t say thr time or temp for the steak...it sure would be critical to know thesae details

[emeraldtint]

you shouldn't leave the daisy wheel on when heating it up

[graycloud057]

way to hot, and not a large enough cooking surface. No thanks.

[elsisgek]

@graycloud057 you can manage the temperature and there are bigger sizes

[bbbhhgg]

how much does it cost

[bbqguys]

@bbbhhgg

Big Green Egg no longer sells on-line.

[teamudgp]

@bbbhhgg $700

how do you add charcoal when you are slow cooking for hours? is there at the bottom?

[bbqguys]

It depends on what you are cooking; when done right, one batch of charcoal will last a very long time low and slow. I have lifted the cooking grate slightly several times and added charcoal, but that was only when shooting a lot of videos in one day all at high temperatures.

If I can help any further please comment or send me a message.

The audio track on this video is screwed up and NOT in synch with the video.

[bbqguys]

Bernie,

I appreciate the heads up, I will try to have the audio swapped out/corrected this week.

We appreciate your interest,

Chef Tony

i really want to get one

[wazup862]

the thing is its not always good 2 leave the dome open because its easy 2 get ranging flames that burn your gaskets off when you do that...

[smockitdaddy]

Burp it dummy ! Do you still have hair on your arms?

[cdizzleandbigcdizzle]

green egg=expensive

[demonlink10]

slow and steady gets the taste! =]

GO CHARCOAL!!

[stephenmarler]

That's amazing! If you take the thermometer off the heat source, it registers a low temperature. If you put is back over the heat source, it registers the temperature of the heat source!

All he demonstrated was that the thermometer could register a temperature change very quickly. Wow! That's a great thermometer.

[LeviF477]

If you think that try doing the same thing on a traditional grill.

[fatsid]

With the egg though you can just close the vents at the bottom and top, and the temp drops almost as quick.

[kbecerra7]

We are getting one. Several of my friends have them and absolutely LOVE them!!

[1bigjerk]

piece of crap...dont buy one....stick with a weber charcoal

[Hopspop]

I had a great Weber I bought 15 years ago (22.5"" One Touch, in Red), but I went to replace it and now you can only get that model WITHOUT the lid holder, NO thermometer in the lid, BLACK only - and it feels a very flimsy & poorly built (the lid didn't even fit - why would they downgrade the same version & offer fewer options?  So much for the value of competition - I'm buying something else (Cajun, Brinkman, or Big Green Egg).

narl, hungry

Cleaning the Big Green Egg has got to be a huge chore

[pr0n3]

not really, its pretty easy. You clean the grill like any other bbq. The coals are actually easier to clean since the bottom has a drawer type area to take the ashes out and dump them.

[cdoose]

Not at all -- the inside gets black from smoke but doesn't need to be cleaned. The grill is cleaned just like any other grill, and the charcoal ash is removed through the bottom vent with an ash tool/scraper. Takes about 2 minutes!

[Hopspop]

Cleaning the BGE grill would be easy since it's non-stick; cleaning a Weber is a pain, especially the flaked carbon on the inner part of the lid that builds up constantly.

[bozbozzy]

I LOVE MY BGE ... but the thickness of the ceramic housing has nothing to do with how fast it heats up, it heats up due to the draft it stays hot due to the ceramic but a metal grill will heat up just as fast with the same draft....

[MarkFromHawaii]

I have an original Japanese Kamado from the late '60s which is the precursor to the BGE. These ceramic cookers rule - cheers!

[heyerstandards]

I've heard good things about them.

[JBuffett1972]

Best grill/smoker there is. Thanks for the video.
