Our Verdict
The Large Big Green Egg defines the kamado category, and Food Network's experts peg it around $1,200–1,250 at authorized dealers. There is no authorized Amazon channel: Big Green Egg's own dealer policy makes any marketplace offer an unauthorized resale that loses warranty coverage. Buy it from an authorized dealer — that's not a sales pitch, it's the manufacturer's rule.
