The Big Green Egg (or EGG) is the brand name of a kamado-style ceramic charcoal barbecue cooker.

History.

A kamado (竈) is a traditional Japanese wood or charcoal fueled cook stove.

The name kamado is, in fact, the Japanese word for “stove” or “cooking range”.

Literally, it means “place for the cauldron”.

A movable kamado called "mushikamado" came to the attention of Americans after the Second World War and is now found in the US as a Kamado style cooker or Barbecue grill.

The mushikamado is a round clay pot with a removable domed clay lid and was typically found in Southern Japan.

Charcoal is a lightweight, black residue, consisting of carbon and any remaining ash, obtained by removing water and other volatile constituents from animal and vegetation substances.

Charcoal is usually produced by slow pyrolysis- the heating of wood or other substances in the absence of oxygen (see char and biochar).

A ceramic is an inorganic, non-metallic, solid material comprising metal, non-metal or metalloid atoms primarily held in ionic and covalent bonds.

Cooking or cookery is the art, technology and craft of preparing food for consumption with the use of heat.

Cooking techniques and ingredients vary widely across the world, from grilling food over an open fire to using electric stoves, to baking in various types of ovens, reflecting unique environmental, economic, and cultural traditions and trends.

The ways or types of cooking also depend on the skill and type of training an individual cook has.

Cooking is done both by people in their own dwellings and by professional cooks and chefs in restaurants and other food establishments.

Cooking can also occur through chemical reactions without the presence of heat, such as in ceviche, a traditional South American dish where fish is cooked with the acids in lemon or lime juice.
