BGE Medium models

The Big Green Egg Medium is 72 centimetres high and has a grill surface with a diameter of 40 centimetres. This provides a cooking surface of 1140 square centimetres, enough for 4 to 6 kilograms of meat. This makes the Big Green Egg Medium big enough to prepare meals for 6 to 8 people, but not too big to fit on your balcony, patio or small city garden.

The Big Green Egg Medium's weight of 51 kilograms also ensures a good balance of mobility and power. All in all, the Medium is the most balanced Green Egg that can meet all the sometimes conflicting demands. Especially for those who want to cook for as many people as possible, but whose available space is limited due to living in a city, for example, the Big Green Egg Medium can be an excellent choice.

The Big Green Egg Medium weighs 51 kilograms. This makes the Medium less heavy than, say, a washing machine, but it is still best lifted by two people. Even better is to use the accompanying Nest trolley and handler for moving it. This is better for your back, prevents accidents with your Big Green Egg Medium and makes moving it by yourself possible.

The weight of the Medium makes it easy to move this Big Green Egg around in most cases, while at the same time allowing larger quantities to be prepared on it than on the smaller Big Green Egg models. Thus, the Green Egg Medium offers an excellent balance between mobility and capacity.

The Big Green Egg Medium is big enough to cook meals for 6 to 8 people. The next model in terms of size is the Large. The biggest advantage of the Large over the Medium is that it is easier to prepare several dishes on it at the same time. However, the Large does take up more space, which is not always convenient, especially in urban environments. With the Big Green Egg Medium, you have a more compact model that still has enough capacity to cook, for example, a large turkey for the whole family.

In terms of components and accessories, there is little difference between the Medium and the larger models. For example, like the larger models, the Medium features the rEGGulator cast-iron control cap for the air supply, which allows extra precise control over the temperature. Smaller models than the Medium feature a different type of control cap.
