Big Green Egg

The Big Green Egg is an iconic outdoor cooking appliance based on the ancient Japanese 'kamado' design. Since its founding in 1974, it has revolutionized the barbecue industry by introducing high-performance ceramics that provide superior insulation, allowing for grilling, smoking, and baking at precise temperatures. The brand is synonymous with the modern kamado movement and maintains a cult-like following among culinary enthusiasts.

While the company is headquartered in the United States, the specialized ceramic components are manufactured in a state-of-the-art facility in Mexico. This facility utilize advanced thermal technologies originally developed by NASA to ensure the ceramic remains durable and heat-retentive. The global distribution network ensures that these green-dimpled cookers reach backyards worldwide, supported by a vast ecosystem of accessories known as 'EGGcessories'.

The brand remains privately held by the family of its founder, Ed Fisher. This independence has allowed Big Green Egg to maintain its focus on product quality and consumer community rather than being absorbed into a larger home goods conglomerate. Its products are sold primarily through a network of authorized dealers, ensuring a high level of customer service and assembly expertise.
