You Can Finally Buy A Big Green Egg Online

06/07/2020 by HelpAtMyHome Staff

For years the Big Green Egg has been the envy of every backyard barbecue enthusiasts. While I love my Weber grill I’d move to a Big Green Egg in a second if they weren’t so expensive and inconvenient.

Well, it’s 2020 and the Big Green Egg (“BGE”) is still expensive, but not it’s a little bit more convenient.

That’s right, you no longer need to go to your local BGE retailer to buy your Egg. You can get an Egg, an Egg kit, and almost all Egg accessories online direct from the manufacturer.

Previously, you needed to buy a Big Green Egg at a local official retailer. These retailers were not as abundant or convenient as most of us would have liked. For example, I needed to drive 30 minutes to a pool accessory store to see Eggs in person. As I don’t have a pool, this wasn’t exactly a trip I looked forward to. Also, the people at the store were pool experts, but not exactly grilling pros, so my important BGE questions went unanswered.

Now you can get a Big Green Egg direct from the company on their website. You can buy Egg packages (the best way to go), Eggs, and “egg-accessories,” like matching knives, shirts, and grill rings, and all that specialized BGE gear.

Big Green Egg Packages

In the past I’ve primarily used the BGE in the XLarge size with the included Acaia table with casters. This is a beautiful setup, but it’s not cheap and it’s definitely not small. The casters are a must as they make the table semi-movable, when it would otherwise impossible to move thanks to its inordinate weight.

The kit will run about $2000 and included:

  • XLarge Egg
  • Acacia wood table
  • Table Nest – A piece under the Egg to provide airflow, prevent trapped water etc.)
  • ConvEGGtor – A ceramic heat deflector
  • Grid Gripper tool
  • Ash removal tool
  • One bag of BGE-safe lump charcoal
  • SpeediLight starters

How Much Does a Big Green Egg Cost

The Big Green Egg comes in a wide ranges of sizes with the possibility of many accessory kits, so the price covers a huge spectrum.

The cheapest Big Green Egg is the MiniMax Egg, which sells for $699. That’s for a barebones Egg, base level accessories, and a bag of charcoal. At this level you need to provide your own table, otherwise your tiny Egg will be sitting on the floor. That metal stand, known as a “Nest” will bump the price up to $939.

The prices go up from there:

  • Large Egg with Nest: $1299
  • Large Egg with Nest and side shelves: $1439
  •  Large Egg in wood table: $1535
  • XLarge Egg with Nest: $1748
  • XLarge Egg with Nest and side shelves: $1879
  • XLarge Egg with wood table: $1959

How Much Does A Big Green Egg Weigh

Long story short, you want to avoid picking up your Big Egg Egg — it’s super heavy and it’s ceramic, so it doesn’t like being dropped (just like a real egg). That said, they do have to be moved from time to time, which is a multi-person job. The most popular Egg, the Large, is about 160 pounds!

Here are the full weight range:

  • Mini: 36 pounds
  • MiniMax: 90 pounds
  • Small: 80 pounds
  • Medium: 113 pounds
  • Large: 162 pounds
  • XLarge: 219 pounds

How Much Is BGE Shipping

Here’s some great news for you: When you buy a Big Green Egg direct from the company, shipping within the United States is free (or, more accurately, it’s included in the cost). That’s right, what you see is what you pay… once you factor in tax. This’ll save you a pretty penny, since shipping a 200 pound piece of ceramic can’t be cheap.
