The Big Green Egg combines age old know-how, state-of-the-art technology and unique design to offer incredible strength, durability and heat insulation. The grill of this MED size EGG gets to the optimum cooking temperature within minutes. Its patented airflow control allows you to achieve the right temperature to within a few degrees, and maintains it with accuracy that rivals or betters many indoor ovens. This makes it ideal for a host of cooking tasks. Better still, it's exceptionally well-insulated so doesn't get as hot as traditional metal barbecues. This makes it safer to use, especially if you have children around. The shell is finished with a limited lifetime-guaranteed glaze in British Racing Green that looks great and wipes clean with ease. Inside residual heat burns away any left over grease which can be brushed away with a bristled brush for easy maintenance. This MED BGE arrives with a metal nest and handler, and pair of shelves.
