If you’ve been wondering why the Big Green Egg smoker/grill is so amazing, keep reading! As you may know from visiting our store here at Park Road Shopping Center in Charlotte and browsing our website we have a pretty big obsession with Big Green Eggs. The question is, do we love the Big Green Eggs because they line our pockets with money or is it because they are actually really really incredibly phenomenal? Read on sample a Big Green Egg meal to find out the true answer!
Mouthwatering Flavor
If you’ve tried anything prepared on a Big Green Egg you know how it turns ordinary burgers into flavor infused deliciousness. Big Green Egg’s 100% organic lump charcoal or the many varieties of wood chips add a light smoky taste and the Egg’s air tight ceramic cooking chamber helps seal in moisture and flavors. Dry chicken breast fillets anyone? Not with the Big Green Egg!

Uber Versatile
You’ve seen us struggle describing exactly what the Big Green Egg is. Is it a grill? Is it a smoker? Is it an outdoor oven? All of the above! The Big Green Egg is the most versatile cooker there is. Sear steaks, pork chops, seafood and more to perfection with a flavor-packed crust! Slow-cook ribs, BBQ, turkeys etc. for hours at consistent, low temperatures! Bake pie, bread, casseroles and even pizza with that delicious brick-oven crust you’ve been missing since your Italy vacation.
What’s more, the Big Green Egg company does not subscribe to the one size fits all philosophy and developed seven different sizes of Big Green Eggs to fit anyone’s lifestyle. From the portable mini that excels at picnics to the XXLarge that fits an entire suckling pig, there’s an Egg in the perfect size for you. FYI, our most popular size at Blackhawk Hardware is the Large Big Green Egg.
Highest Quality
The founder of the Big Green Egg company started by importing tried and true ceramic kamado smokers from Japan to the US. The flavor and juiciness of meals prepared with those is what got his customers interested. What got them hooked was when the company started improving upon the original Asian design, which led to the signature green egg shape. The cookers are now manufactured in Monterrey, Mexico, thanks to the ceramics experience acquired over generations in that region. Big Green Eggs incorporate ceramic technology that was advanced by NASA and a permanent porcelain glaze that allows the company to confidently give a limited life-time warranty on all its ceramic parts. And since Blackhawk is the largest Big Green Egg dealer in the Carolinas, we support you throughout the warranty process should the rare warranty case happen. You’ll have your replacement part within a week – that is if we don’t have it in stock. Trust us, this will be the last grill you buy; it’ll last you forever and you’ll want nothing more.
Supreme Temperature Control
Thanks to their air tight ceramic cooking chamber, the Big Green Eggs retain heat like no other. Even on cold winter days Big Green Eggs are immaculate at maintaining steady temperatures even at 750F. A while ago I wrote about grilling portobello mushroom burgers in the snow, which you can read here. In addition, the temperature is easily adjusted with the Egg’s patented air flow system. A precision flow draft door at the bottom allows you to adjust the amount of air entering the Big Green Egg and the adjustable top cap lets you control air circulation in the cooking chamber for precision temperature adjustments.
