Big Green Egg

Last weekend got a replacement firebox for our Big Green Egg. We bought it on July 14, 2001 and have had no problems with it except for cracks in the firebox which we lived with for awhile. It got to the point that it really needed a replacement and the company honored the lifetime warrantee and sent a replacement firebox.

We have the Large Egg

 The new firebox, serial number 584534.

The new version of the firebox has a gap to allow for expansion and contraction and to prevent cracking, you can see the gap on the left. Every other component of the Egg is in great shape.

We have smoked bacon, roasted whole turkeys and chickens, made pizza, baked bread, made stews in a dutch oven, grilled Fred Flintstone steaks, brats, veggies, burgers and dogs. I don't think we ever roasted marshmallows though.

The Big Green Egg, the best cooker ever.
