Big Green Egg And Charcoal Grill


Grilling can be fun and very easy. The thing that you need to do is to master the fundamentals in grilling for you to have an easy and fun time in grilling. Never worry if you commit any mistake particularly if this is your first time in grillinglike being said in any kamado grill review. You need time to get your food in perfect grilling condition. The first thing that you need to have is a grill and you can find grills in the market anywhere like big green egg that is a ceramic grill.

Ceramic grills are one perfect way to get all your grilling time done and one of the manufacturers of this kind of grill is the Kamado grill which features the big green egg. You can use charcoal for these kind of kamado grills. Charcoal grilling for your egg grill could be challenging especially for novices but when you get to master the fundamentals like the type of charcoal that you should use or the total amount of briquettes to light and the arrangement of your food when you grill will ensure that you will have perfectly grilled food that you usually wanted.

There are many factors that greatly affect your grilling on your kamado cooker such as total quantity of briquettes to use, the size of your grill, the food that you'll be cooking, its cooking time and weather condition. As a general rule use 30 pieces of briquettes on your green egg grill in every pound of meat. Bear in mind that a standard 5 pound bag of briquettes can only contain up to 90 pieces that is why it is necessary that you should have enough briquettes to cover your entire green egg grill in one layer. In order for your food to be cooked just remember to extend the briquettes 2 to 3 inches from the food that you arrange in your green egg grill. The first thing that you should do is to place the briquettes on your kamado pan and check for the quantity. Stack them neatly to make sure that it is simple to light or place them in a chimney starter.

The weather condition plays an important role since you need more briquettes in cold or windy conditions to succeed in the appropriate cooking temperature. If you prefer to light the charcoal in a pyramid method, you can stack all your charcoal in a pyramid shape. Soak the entire charcoal with half cup of lighter fluid.
