Terrific video for the BGE. You covered more practical directions for the BGE in fourteen minutes than most experts do in an hour! Enjoy all the videos. Also, all of the video lessons will work on any grill.
My husband was a HUGE BGE fan. He brought his first Kamado in Japan on his way home from Vietnam in the mid 60's. We carried it around the countryside until the movers dropped it off our patio in Tennessee. Huge disappointment. Years later we saw the BGE ads, and bought one. After retirement we carried it in our motor home. A huge crowd gathered whenever Bill was cooking. After several years in the motor home, it was hard to lift it out of the lower compartments, so we bought the smaller one at an ACE Hardware store in Navarre, FL When we built our new house in Washington, Bill built an outdoor kitchen with a space for yet another BGE. He was a fabulous cook. We had lots of company when grilling. My heart aches now that Bill has passed away and our THREE BGEs sit unused. We had every intention of going to the Eggfest this past year. I enjoy watching your videos but still haven't tried cooking in it. Maybe someday.
Thanks for sharing, & condolences. You seemed to enjoy sharing the story & have such a long experience with BGE/kamado, that if you ever feel up to it, I’d encourage you to consider making a video about some BGE/grilling insights you & your husband found in all those years. Experience based information like that is hard to find!
My Father-in-law passed last May and I have been put in charge of the Turkey for Thanksgiving. It will be my Mother-in-laws first Thanksgiving and Christmas without her Husband so I am going to channel his spirit and try to cook the turkey on his BGE. Great video and tips. I'm, sure I will be back for more guidance.
That's a great way to carry on his legacy Steve. I hope it turned out perfectly for all of you. You sound like a great son-in-law! Feel free to reach out if you ever have questions. I'm on FB & Instagram. cptnron302
Have had my BGE XL for 7 years and even I took away some great points on this video. Thank you so much for showing the dual technique of Bottom and Top air flow control!
Fantastic video. Thank you! My 17 year old Traeger is on its way out and I’ve been debating a replacement. I always thought the Green Egg was a Pain ITA to use, but I’m buying one after watching this.
First cook tonight and boss the chicken turned out great, totally different than my smoker, it’s going to be fun to learn, I’ll be turning to u for tips, thanks agin
This really helped. Had a neighbor give me a BGE yesterday. Night one in the dark and rain was tough. This video helped a lot! Cornbread in the morning. Chicken quesadillas at lunch. Ribs at night. A one day run and I feel like I’m way ahead as compared to trial and error for days.
OK, first of all, I want a neighbor like that! Second, I am so glad the video helped. Here is a playlist of all of our BGE instructional videos that I made. Lots and lots of good stuff here... ua-cam.com/play/PL4QZhiP4QAOzMNy-73urEXa12IVXOI0Qy.html
Absolutely great video! Easy to understand and I agree with a previous commenter that you packed in an hour's worth of information in 14 minutes. I'm SOLD!
Great Video. I just ordered the FOGO Blazeball Chimney. My Kamado is 37 years old, the vintage style, and it is still plugging along. Despite having my grill for so long, I came away with some great tips. Thank You.
Glad I found this video brother! Just got a large green egg on stand with wheels. Won on a auction for excellent price and in near perfect shape. It does have daisy wheel and thank you so much for the tip on that and the charcoal situation. Cooked once on it and worked great cant wait to smoke in it. This video definitely explained in detail to perfection on how to work it. Thanks.🏆
I’ve been playing with charcoal amounts. And 1 chimney full plus a double handful is plenty to cook slow for 3-1/2 hours. If I fill it full like you did trying to keep low temps is work. They are so efficient. I only use 1 starter under the chimney and don’t let it get too hot. 2 wads of old newspaper is plenty to get it going nice and free. Otherwise it will be over temp in 5 minutes. I leave the coals in a slight mound and let fire spread from there. A metal bucket a wire charcoal basket is a simple set that everyone should have for any Kamado red green black Ect. I asked multiple Kamado video producers for help with fire size questions and never got a response. That left over charcoal may be out in 10 minutes but hot for much much longer.
I am cooking on my egg for the first time, I fired it up yesterday to season with some oak. Spare rids and baby backs on the menu, wish me luck and thanks for the tutorial!
Excellent video! Thank you for all the information. I'm using a ceramic smoker for the first time tomorrow and I didn't have a clue what to do until watching this. Your explanations are great and you made it look easy enough that even I can do it.
Eggcellent review! One minor detail to point out (and perhaps someone has already commented) the proper orientation of the convEGGtor is with one of the legs located directly at the front of the egg. This helps divert air flow and heat to the sides of the space where the thermometer is located in the cover when closed.
I learned the most from your video than from so many others I have watched. I get a lot of recipes that say to remove a grill like the stainless steel and replace it with the heavier grill, but it never explains where to place a hot grill. When we remove it we set it awkwardly beside the egg but I think this is dangerous, especially when company are at the house.
@@FOGOcharcoal I would love a suggestion. I saw a video with just a cast iron-looking round plate, like a large green egg-shaped flat pancake griddle. A person removed a grill and placed it on this cast-iron platter. I guess we could place some cinder blocks by the green egg but I would love to have a solution that I could keep outside by the egg. (without spending lots of money).
There does exist stainless steel leg-attached accessories called grate racks that allow you to store plates, grates and other things directly below the grill itself. Third party of course, but cheap and does precisely what you’re asking.
I enjoy your beginners guide to the Big Green Egg, but what I would also like to see is basics for cooking on the grill, i.e. basics for steaks, hamburgers, etc. I see a lot of recipes for more specific type of cooking, but for us beginners, I would like to see the basics that would help me just starting out. Love the channel!
Thanks for the idea! We are actually planning some of those exact types of videos. They'll probably be out before July 4th. I am glad that you're enjoying the videos!
Hi, met you today at the festival in Bonita Springs. I have to say your presentation was very nice but the wings were even better. Lol they were delicious 😋. I didn’t stick around the one if you can share that with me, I would appreciate it. Thanks keep up the good work.
Hey, thanks so much for coming out, it was a great day. I am glad that you enjoyed the wings so much! Sorry I was so rushed, I wasn't sure how it came across. What is it that you would like me to share with you? You can also hit me up at Ron@fogocharcoal.com . Buenas dias
@@FOGOcharcoal hi, I wish I had seen this sooner because now I can’t remember what it was that I wanted you to share with me. I’m looking forward to purchasing the grill soon. Thanks again.
You provide great information and instruction. So once I have my fire lie, at what point do I close the lid to get it up to the intended hold temperature?
I use a small rechargeable USB fan, while the fire starters are going that can spread the flames all over very quickly saves about 10 minutes or so, and no failures, I am probably guilty of not cleaning my egg often enough maybe the airflow is a little low but this does the trick and I did a 12 hour pork shoulder burn the other day it was fabulous
That is so great to hear Debra. You can feel free to reach out any time! Are you the lady that put the post in FB about hubby not using the Egg very much anymore?
Great video Ron-some helpful tips even after years of BGE use! Also learned that BGE made limited edition blue eggs-always thought that was BGE’s competition in your EGG arsenal!
That’s great to hear, we love to continue to learn and want to share the bit of knowledge that we have. Haha, that blue one is always a hot topic of conversation.

I just brought home a XL BGE today and your videos are very helpful. Coming from cooking on a Traeger, which is set and forget, your videos are really helping me better understand how to use my new egg. I can't wait to start cooking on this beauty! Thanks again!
@@NoSend901 I hate to say it, but I love both and use both fairly often. I like the Traeger due to its ease of use which is nice on work nights or when I don't have a lot of time to get charcoal fired up. When I have more time, I always use the BGE and I can taste the difference when I do. For smoking capabilities, the BGE will give you more smoke flavor but the Treager is no slouch. Hope this helps.
Great video, very straightforward and you covered the essentials! Just got my BGE, finally upgraded from a Chargriller Acorn Kamado so your channel is gold for me for my first steps using the BGE! Just suscribed, thank you for your great work!
I’ve got an old heat gun that works fabulously for lighting the lump coal. Position at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions for about 1 minutes each until sparks start to fly. You could buy the heat guns from green egg but I had one sitting around for years not getting much use and gave it a new purpose.
