Oriental kamados…used for smoking in Asia for centuries, but now also made and sold in the United States. The kamado we use is called the Big Green Egg, which is exactly what it resembles. Imported kamados come with many of the same features of the Big Green Egg, but not the same lifetime guarantee against cracking, or such ready access to service.

For state-of-the-art smoking, the Big Green Egg promises no muss, no fuss, less time cooking.

For great outdoor cooking without all the fuss

Uses no water yet keeps food moist and can smoke a turkey in 2 hours.

...constructed of glazed high-tech ceramic warranted for life!

Now That's Really Smoking!… the Big Green Egg,… a fine charcoal smoker made by a company of the same name in Atlanta. Of heavy-duty ceramic construction, it retains water from food but does not add any extra moisture, producing a desirable crunchy exterior.

Made of heavy-duty ceramic--ideal for year-round use-it's designed to burn charcoal sparingly and heat up in 10 minutes flat...I know it will be the talk of the block party this summer, not to mention the envy of the neighborhood next winter.

It's fantastic. Once you cook with it, you'll be amazed…. Chicken has an altogether different taste and it's never dry…. turkey is dynamite. ….Sears meat beautifully and seals in juices… I've had all kinds of grills and this is the best…. …. And…it's pretty cool looking as well.

Egg-shaped, charcoal-fueled kamados are one of a growing array of outdoor ovens specifically engineered for smoking. …. have thick ceramic walls that efficiently retain heat and moisture ensuring good, consistent performance in varying weather conditions. The ceramic construction keeps food juicy without a water pan, yielding the desirable contrast of a crunchy exterior and moist interior.
