Compact Big Green Egg for Precision Outdoor Cooking The Big Green Egg Small delivers full ceramic-grill performance in a compact, efficient size designed for focused outdoor cooking. With 133 sq in (856 sq cm) of cooking space and precise temperature control from 200°F to 750°F (93°C to 399°C), it supports grilling, smoking, roasting, and baking with the same consistency found in larger models. Its 13-inch (33 cm) grid provides enough room for complete meals while remaining easy to manage in smaller outdoor spaces. Built with the same high-quality ceramic construction and advanced airflow system as every Big Green Egg, the Small Egg retains heat and moisture exceptionally well—making it ideal for cooks who value precision, efficiency, and control over sheer capacity. Who This Is Best For Individuals, couples, and small households cooking for 1–3 people Patios, balconies, and space-limited outdoor areas Buyers who want Big Green Egg performance in a compact footprint A secondary Egg for multi-Egg outdoor kitchens Cooks focused on efficiency, portability, and precise temperature control Key Specifications Cooking Area: 133 sq in (856 sq cm) Grid Diameter: 13 in (33 cm) Temperature Range: 200°F–750°F (93°C–399°C) Weight: 80 lbs (36 kg) Cooking Capacity (Real-World Use) Ideal for intimate meals and focused cooks: 1 whole turkey up to 12 lbs Up to 4 burgers Up to 2 steaks Small racks of ribs or individual roasts How It Performs Despite its compact size, the Small Egg offers the same thermal stability as larger Big Green Egg models. Thick ceramic walls minimize temperature swings and lock in moisture, helping food cook evenly and stay tender. The airflow system allows fine adjustments for low-and-slow smoking or quick transitions to high-heat searing, delivering reliable results without constant monitoring.

EGG Genius® compatibility allows remote temperature monitoring and control for added precision during long cooks. Natural hardwood lump charcoal ignites quickly, burns cleanly, and delivers subtle wood-fired flavor without fillers. These additions allow the Small Egg to function as a complete outdoor cooking system despite its smaller footprint.
