The Top 5 Questions We Get Asked About the Big Green Egg - ANSWERED! Captain Ron & Tina Cannon
Рет қаралды 7,317
Күн бұрынWhile we were filming videos with Tina Cannon recently, we started discussing all of the questions that we get asked about the Big Green Egg. Whether it be about care or how to use it, we realized that we get asked many of the same basic questions over and over again. Well, what better time to answer some of these questions than while filming videos! Now, we have covered most of these already in other videos but it was nice to get a different perspective and tips from the BBQ Pro herself, The Pearly Girl herself, Miss Tina Cannon. So sit back, and see what great info these two zany kids have to offer.

@markinmemphis Ай бұрын
When my reggulator cap is stuck closed I use a propane torch to unfreeze it. Just blast the cap with fire from the inside for 20 seconds or so to loosen it up. Then I use a putty knife to scrape it clean. Great tip on the foil. I don’t see the point of vacuuming out the Egg. Whatever ash I can’t get out with a nitrile gloved hand stays. Of course the number one accessory for cleaning the Egg is that Kick Ash Basket and can. Makes Egg life 100 percent better!

1. I’m a big fan of the channel. 2. Excellent tips and tricks. Love these kind of videos. 3. Both of you definitely have the personality that is both entertaining and fun to watch. 4. Now, the part of the video about adding wood. I like to to add my wood chunks to the bottom grate. Then, I will put my Fogo on top and light it with my Grill Gun. When I have enough a super hot fire, I will throw one wood chunk directly on top of the fire to blast my brisket with immediate clean smoke. In about 20 minutes, the lump has reached to my wood chunks at the bottom of the grate and it produces instant clean smoke because the fire is super hot. After the wood chunks has burnt up at the bottom of the grate, I will add wood chunks through the bottom vent and place them directly under my Kick Ash basket. This gives immediate blue smoke and is used for a supplemental smoke if needed. I always like a three tier approach when using smoke and it gives me an awesome blue smoke every time Great video guys. Really enjoyed it.

Those are so great tips. I try using Al foil to clean the egg in both the base and dome were I get a lot of hanging stuff. I put most of my smoking wood on the bottom and then add the charcoal. I then put one or two on top. You guys are a class act. I do burn off the daisy wheel during every cool off by placing it on the grill grate.

Rewatched and picked up more tips I missed. The idea of taking out & adding charcoal was great. And using the half grid to control temps. The 140 F degree limit for meat to take on smoke was very helpful. Great video! Thanks!

Yes! Love that you have that vac, I just finally had to toss and replace my vac of 13 years that was THAT exact one I'd bought long ago and just dedicated it to BBQ stuff, and I bought for that exact reason! Makes quick work of cleaning, and love that it'll pick up almost anything less than the size of a baseball 😂
@FOGOcharcoal Ай бұрын
You are not kidding my man. It is so easy and convenient. I have tried many other methods and just wind up knocking the dustpan as I take it out or something and wind up with a pile of ash on the patio. The ironic part is that then I have to go get the vacuum anyways! Nice job on the brisket for 750 btw

I bought something called the buckethead at the orange big box. It attaches to a 5 gallon bucket. Much cheaper if you have to replace.

Stand back Captain and Tina this is another one for the Ego's. I thought I knew a lot about the Egg, but I learned a few things you guys have great on screen chemistry. I never done a cold smoke yet, but I am looking forward to another nice collaboration between you and Tina. Ron a video suggestion after seeing your rusty grill. How about one on cleaning just the accessories for the Egg. The Plancha, wok and grills. Great job as always

Capt Ron love the content appreciate all the tips. Had a question about my large green egg, having trouble maintaining low temps for cooking brisket. Have Kick ash basket, use Blaza ball, and FOGO charcoal. The lowest I can get it to stay steady is 300F with the bottom grill grate fully closed, conveegtor, and reegulator fully open. Is there a tip to help it.
@FOGOcharcoal Ай бұрын
You may want to check your dome alignment and gaskets. Make sure there are no air leaks. Also, if you go too high on temp in the begining, it is tough to bring it back down.
@dominicbartschi6450 Ай бұрын
Thanks for this great video and sharing helpful insights with us. However, I have two questions, first, do you use the same chunks for cold smoking as for „normal“ smoking? And how do you season your cast iron grates with?
@FOGOcharcoal Ай бұрын
Yes, we do use the same chunks for cold smoking. We actually got so many questions about this that we just filmed a cold smoking video that will be released in a few short weeks. As far as seasoning, Scrape after each use and rub down with oil. If they've gotten bad, throw them in the hot coals for a while and reseason them afterwards.

I have had my Egg for thirteen years and still love it! But here is my latest improvement to my low slow cooking. I use the pizza stone with the expander set for my heat deflector instead of the regular ceramic plate setter for cooking ribs. I put a pan with water and aromatics on the pizza stone and smoke the ribs about 4 +/- hours unwrapped. These ribs come out so tender and juicy it's a sin! so much better than when I used the plate setter. Why??? I still use the ceramic plate setter for most indirect cooks but for ribs and prime rib, I think the pizza stone with a water pan is much better.
