The Big Green Egg is the highest quality, most versatile and simplest-to-use outdoor cooker you’ll ever own.
Not only can you grill the best steak you’ll have ever tasted — but when it comes to pulled pork, pizza or paella, the EGG world is your (smoked) oyster.

Today’s Big Green Egg is modelled on the clay cooking vessels, fuelled by wood or natural charcoal, first seen during the Chinese Qin Dynasty and later used by the Japanese beginning in the 3rd century. U.S. servicemen discovered this type of cooker during World War II . One American serviceman and entrepreneur Ed Fisher started importing them after the war, sensing that there might be an interest back home.
American serviceman and entrepreneur Ed Fisher sensed there might be some interest for this cooker and commenced importing them. When Ed opened his first Big Green Egg store in Atlanta in 1974, he sold a simple clay cooker based on the same design and materials that had been used thousands of years ago. Ed later made the decision to refine the composition of the EGG and so commenced working with a state-of-the-art factory to manufacture his products. Based on materials initially developed by NASA for the space program, company engineers incorporated new types of ceramics and worked tirelessly to find ways to improve the design. The result is a superior cooker that is stronger, more durable and provides better heat insulation than anything else on the market. A distinction the Big Green Egg is known for today.
Often copied, but never equalled. If it doesn’t say BIG GREEN EGG right in front, it isn’t one … or, as Ed Fisher likes to say, “A Big Green Egg may be a kamado style cooker, but every kamado cooker is certainly nothing close to a Big Green Egg!”
