About the Big Green Egg®

The Big Green Egg Company was founded over thirty years ago as entrepreneur Ed Fisher set out to develop a modernized version of an ancient Asian cooker suitable for the backyard griller and culinary marketplace alike. Not satisfied with the short-lived materials and marginal thermal properties of the typical kamado grill, Fisher focused on creating the very best outdoor cooker, period. This unique product, the Big Green Egg, now manufactured from advanced ceramic materials, is widely acclaimed as the best outdoor cooker in the world and has gained legions of fans (known as EGGheads) in over thirty-five countries. Often copied, never matched ... there is only one, original Big Green Egg — The Ultimate Cooking Experience!
