Summer Barbecue Essentials
Summer is just around the corner, and with the weather getting warmer, it is the perfect time to get outside and enjoy the simple pleasures of spending time with family and friends—with great food of course!
Big Green Egg is the perfect brand to look at when planning your next barbecue. With a choice of seven different grill sizes and a plethora of customization options like egg tables, nests, mates, convEGGtors, baking stones, and more, you’re sure to find the perfect grill to make your summer afternoons and evenings something to look forward to.
From the MiniMax Egg, which has a cooking-grid diameter of 33 centimeters, to the Double XL Egg boasting a 74-centimeter diameter grid, Big Green Egg has a grill for everyone. These grills are modeled after the ancient clay “kamado” to support a vast range of outdoor cooking needs. From cooking burgers to roasting a suckling pig, these eggs can handle it all. Heating up to 750 degrees Fahrenheit, the premium ceramic material that all eggs are outfitted with allows for the precise control of its internal temperature which makes cooking a breeze.
Customize your grilling experience with Big Green Egg’s nests, handlers, mates, tables, and more. Need some extra space for toppings? Take a look at the Acacia Wood EGG Mates, which are crafted from sustainably harvested acacia wood. Boasting strong, mortise and tenon joints, these side tables can attach to your egg to provide a place for toppings, accessories and more.
Take your egg to the next level with the Modular EGG Frame, which features a wire insert for storage as well as wheels for mobility. Add one of the Distressed Acadia Inserts for even more space and usability, and consider pairing it with the Water-Resistant Cabinet to provide storage for all of your grilling needs.
Building your very own outdoor cooking space is just the first step in elevating your grilling experience. Take a look at some of the hand-picked accessories we’ve chosen that pair perfectly with Big Green Egg.
Rösle’s handsome two-tone, leather grilling gloves boast a 16-inch length to protect hands and arms from heat and flame, and Big Green Egg’s grilling apron has a soft, vintage feel outfitted with pockets, providing utility and style.
OXO’s Good Grips Precision Turner makes handling your cuisine easier than ever.

Don’t worry about any lingering mess, this silicone is also non-stick, allowing for easy clean-up after the grilling is done.
