Charcoal grill ONYX L, basic set, Big Green Egg

Product detailed description

Big Green Egg ONYX L is a premium, solid ceramic grill for anyone who doesn't just want to 'grill something' in the garden, but wants to take command of the entire weekend menu and, on top of that, evoke the quiet envy of the neighbour. The limited black edition additionally looks confident enough to make your original grill seem like a slightly amusing backup plan from the garage next to it.

Main advantages:

• The Big Green Egg ONYX L basic set is a limited black edition of a premium ceramic kamado grill for demanding outdoor cooking.
• The ONYX model was created in response to the demand from Big Green Egg fans for a darker finish that would better fit into modern terraces, gardens, and premium outdoor kitchens.
• The ONYX glaze looks elegant, striking, and clean, while retaining a subtle green hue as a nod to the original iconic Big Green Egg.
• The special ONYX edition is available in popular L and XL sizes, so the L model combines a representative look with practical capacity for regular and larger grilling.
• The L size is among the most popular Big Green Egg models, offering ample space for family, friends, and a complete multi-course menu.
• On the approximately 46 cm diameter grilling surface, you can comfortably prepare food for up to 8 people, or even more depending on the specific preparation method.
• The 1,688 cm² grilling area provides space for meat, vegetables, side dishes, and combined cooking, where you don't want to worry about every centimeter of the grate.
• The ceramic body of the grill, developed with NASA technology, works with charcoal and can function not only as a classic garden grill but also as a stable ceramic oven.
• The Big Green Egg ONYX L can handle grilling, baking, cooking, stewing, smoking, steaming, and slow-cooking larger cuts of meat.
• You can also use it for more delicate ingredients such as fish, seafood, shellfish, or tender fillets, where stable temperature is essential.
• Big Green Egg ceramics reflect the heat generated by burning charcoal and help create airflow inside the grill.
• Thanks to its thoughtful shape and air circulation, food is prepared more evenly and the grill maintains the desired temperature better.
• Excellent insulating properties of the ceramics help to keep the hot air inside, so the charcoal burns for a long time and efficiently.
• You will appreciate the economical operation, especially during longer grilling, smoking, or slow cooking, when you don't want to constantly refuel.
• The temperature can be regulated and maintained in the range of approximately 70 to 350 °C, so one grill covers both low and high temperatures.
• Stable temperature regulation allows for slow-cooked meat, gentle smoking, baking bread, pizza with a crispy crust, and intense steak grilling.
• The high thermal insulation of the ceramics reduces the influence of outdoor temperature on what's happening inside the grill, so you can rely on a more stable result.
• The premium ceramic construction is designed to regulate the temperature inside the grill just as reliably as the original green Big Green Egg.
• The special ONYX glaze is crafted to appear vibrant, have depth, and show subtle surface variability in sunlight.
• The ONYX finish is built on the same high-quality ceramic and glaze as the classic Big Green Egg, so everyday use, cleaning, and outdoor conditions are unlikely to leave visible marks.
• Big Green Egg ceramics are associated with long life, high resistance to extreme temperatures, and the ability to withstand repeated ignition.
• Each grill undergoes thorough inspection before leaving the factory to meet the Big Green Egg brand standard.
• The grill's ceramic parts have a limited lifetime warranty, making the ONYX not just a design specialty, but a long-term investment in outdoor cooking.
• The basic set includes the Big Green Egg ONYX L ceramic grill, a dual zone deflector system, two half-moon cast iron grates, and two half-moon stainless steel grates.
• The dual zone deflector system includes a stainless steel basket and two half-moon deflectors for more practical handling of direct and indirect heat.
• The half-moon deflectors allow for gentler cooking of ingredients over indirect heat while also better distributing the grilling space according to the current menu.
• The two half-moon cast iron grates are ideal for more intense contact with ingredients, enhanced searing, and working with meat or vegetables.
• Two half-moon stainless steel grates offer a versatile surface for everyday grilling, daily use, and combining different cooking methods.
• The accessory set expands your possibilities right from the start, so you don't begin with just the grill and one basic grate.
• The grill lid has a built-in thermometer with a dial, allowing you to continuously monitor the operating temperature during preparation.
• The cast iron regulator in the lid helps control airflow, thus more precisely managing the temperature inside the grill.
• The bottom ventilation door complements the top regulation and allows you to adjust the air supply based on the chosen cooking method.
• The ceramic ring inside the grill firebox helps to distribute heat more evenly throughout the interior of the grill.
• The cast iron fire grate is part of the basic equipment and supports the proper burning of charcoal in the ceramic grill body.
• Charcoal as fuel gives grilling an authentic character, high temperatures, and a long burn time with correct air settings.
• You can transform the grill into a fully functional oven for indirect cooking, slow preparation, and other culinary techniques using the ceramic convEGGtor.
• With a baking stone, you can prepare bread or pizza with a distinct crust and oven-baked character on the Big Green Egg.
• All accessories designed for the classic Big Green Egg Large also fit The ONYX Large, so you can expand your accessories without any worries about incompatibility.
• The weight of 73 kg without a stand confirms the robust ceramic construction, which is one of the main reasons for its stable performance.
• The black ONYX finish gives the grill a more pronounced premium look without changing its performance, safety, or way of operation compared to the classic Big Green Egg.
• The history of Big Green Egg originates from traditional East Asian clay kamado ovens, which were used for food preparation thousands of years ago.
• The current Big Green Egg combines the principle of the old Japanese kamado with modern ceramic technology, resulting in a versatile outdoor oven.
• The ONYX model builds on this tradition with a new dark aesthetic, designed for gardens and terraces with a more modern architectural expression.
• The Big Green Egg ONYX L basic set is designed for those who want not just a grill, but a long-term outdoor cooking system with high functionality, iconic origin, and exceptional design.
