EGG weight
The 2XL Built-In Bundle places the largest Big Green Egg into a permanent outdoor kitchen installation. It pairs the 2XL EGG with the Table Nest that is mandatory for any built-in configuration, along with a full set of cooking accessories designed for the 2XL's scale, including the convEGGtor Basket system and two Half Moon Pizza and Baking Stones.
At 4,336 cm² of cooking surface, the 2XL is capable of cooking 30 burgers, 6 whole chickens, or 10 Boston butts (approximately 3.6 kg each) at a time. This is catering-scale capacity built into a ceramic kamado that will be permanently part of your outdoor kitchen structure.
The 2XL weighs 170 kg. This is specialist equipment requiring significant planning, structural preparation, and professional installation. If you are considering the 2XL for a built-in application, the decisions you make in the design phase are more consequential than with smaller EGG sizes. Getting the installation right from the start is non-negotiable.
We have been cooking on Big Green Eggs since 2017 and as a Platinum Dealer, we can provide the full specification sheet and work directly with you and your builder before construction begins. The 2XL is not on display at our Wetherill Park showroom, but it is available to order. Contact us before committing to the design.
What is includedEverything in This Bundle
2XL Big Green Egg
The largest ceramic kamado Big Green Egg produces. 74 cm grid diameter. 4,336 cm² cooking surface. 170 kg.
Table Nest
Mandatory for any built-in installation. Provides essential airflow underneath the 2XL EGG and distributes the 170 kg weight correctly. Never install without it.
convEGGtor Basket
The 2XL uses a convEGGtor Basket system rather than a single plate. The basket holds ceramic plates that create indirect heat deflection for smoking, roasting, and baking. Modular design allows individual components to be serviced or replaced.
Two Half Moon Pizza and Baking Stones
Two half-moon ceramic baking stones that together cover the 2XL's full cooking surface for pizza, bread, and baking applications.
Grid Gripper and Ash Tool
Grid Gripper for safely removing the hot cooking grid. Ash Tool for clearing ash that accumulates at the bottom of the EGG between cooks.
Natural Lump Charcoal and SpeediLight Starters
One bag of Big Green Egg Natural Lump Charcoal plus all-natural fire starters. Ready to cook the day installation is complete.
What You Can Cook From Day One
With the convEGGtor Basket and two Half Moon Pizza and Baking Stones included, the 2XL handles the full range of cooking methods from day one:
Direct grilling across a 74 cm surface: steaks, burgers, fish, vegetables
Indirect smoking and roasting of whole birds, whole animals, and large cuts
Low and slow cooking at sustained temperatures using the dual-vent airflow system
Baking and pizza using the two Half Moon Pizza and Baking Stones across the full surface
To put the 2XL's capacity in context against the rest of the Big Green Egg range: it provides 2.5 times the cooking area of the Large (1,688 cm²) and 1.5 times the area of the XL (2,919 cm²). That is 30 burgers versus 12 on the Large, 6 whole chickens versus 2, and 10 Boston butts versus 4. For a permanent outdoor kitchen, once it is built in, increasing capacity later means rebuilding. If your cooking regularly involves groups of 12 or more people, building the 2XL in from the start avoids that constraint entirely.
Who this is forWho Should Consider the 2XL Built-In Bundle
The 2XL Built-In Bundle is not a standard household configuration. It is designed for specific applications where its scale, permanently installed, is genuinely justified.
Catering and semi-professional cooking
Operations requiring maximum ceramic kamado capacity built into a permanent outdoor kitchen structure.
Large-scale entertaining venues
Event spaces and properties where cooking for groups of 12 to 20 or more is regular and a fixed, high-capacity outdoor kitchen is part of the design.
Restaurants and commercial kitchens
Commercial outdoor kitchens using the 2XL as a permanent feature of their cooking operation.
Competition barbecue
Teams with a permanent home base setup requiring maximum capacity for training and competition preparation.
Not sure if the 2XL is right for you? If your typical cooking group sits below 12 people, the XL Built-In Bundle (2,919 cm² / specified for 6 to 12 people) or the Large Built-In Bundle (1,688 cm² / specified for 4 to 6 people) is more appropriate. Once the 2XL is built into a permanent kitchen structure, replacing it with a smaller EGG means significant demolition and reconstruction. Getting the size right before construction is the most important decision in this purchase.
Built-in installation
Built-In Installation: What You Need to Know
The 2XL Built-In configuration requires more planning than any other EGG size. The Table Nest included in this bundle is mandatory. At 170 kg, the structural requirements are significantly greater than for smaller EGG sizes.
Important: Never install the 2XL EGG directly into a countertop opening without the Table Nest. At the 2XL's scale, the heat output and structural risks are proportionally greater than with smaller EGG sizes. The Table Nest is included in this bundle.
Airflow
Air must circulate under the Table Nest at all times. Either through ventilation openings in the base of the structure or through an open storage area below. At the 2XL's scale, the consequences of blocked airflow are more serious.
Opening Dimensions
Must be sized to fit the 2XL Table Nest correctly with adequate support on all sides. Contact us for the full specification sheet before any construction begins.
Dome Clearance
The 2XL's dome is proportionally larger than the XL's. Confirm total height clearance from the countertop surface upward before the design is finalised.
Structural Support
Must account for 170 kg of EGG weight. This is not a standard countertop load. Your builder or structural engineer must plan for this before foundations and the base structure are constructed.
Surrounding Materials
Must be non-combustible. Stone, concrete, and tile are appropriate. If timber is part of the design, proper heat shielding and clearances are required.
Access for Placement
At 170 kg, the 2XL cannot be manoeuvred through tight spaces. The path from delivery point to the outdoor kitchen opening must be clear and accessible before the surrounding structure is completed.
Professional installation strongly recommended: We recommend having the installation reviewed by a professional familiar with Big Green Egg's built-in requirements and experienced with large ceramic kamado installations. Contact us before construction begins and we will provide the specification sheet and work directly with you and your builder.
Size comparison
2XL Built-In vs XL Built-In vs Large Built-In
All three are available as Built-In Bundles for permanent outdoor kitchen installation. The decision is made before your builder starts, not after.
| 2XL (this bundle) | XL | Large | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cooking surface | 4,336 cm² | 2,919 cm² | 1,688 cm² |
| Grid diameter | 74 cm | 61 cm | 46 cm |
| EGG weight | 170 kg | 99 kg | 73 kg |
| Serves | 12 to 20 people, catering scale | 6 to 12 people | 4 to 6 people |
| On display at showroom | No. Available to order. | Yes | Yes |
The Large (1,688 cm² / specified for 4 to 6 people) is the most sold EGG size in Australia and the most common choice for residential outdoor kitchens. The XL (2,919 cm² / specified for 6 to 12 people) suits larger groups and households where regular entertaining justifies the additional capacity. The 2XL (4,336 cm² / 170 kg) is in a different category: designed for large-scale entertaining, catering, or commercial applications where its additional capacity will be used regularly.

Warranty Coverage
The warranty coverage for the 2XL Built-In Bundle follows the standard Big Green Egg warranty structure. The warranty is valid only for EGGs purchased from an Authorised Dealer and requires warranty registration by the original purchaser. All warranty claims for EGGs purchased through BBQ Republic are handled directly through us.
| Ceramic components (dome, base, damper top, fire box, fire ring, convEGGtor Basket plates) | Limited lifetime warranty for residential use, to the original registered purchaser |

Keeping It in Good Condition
- Remove ash from the firebox after each cook using the included ash tool
- Brush the cooking grid clean after use
- Never use lighter fluid or flammable accelerants inside the EGG. This may void the warranty and can damage the ceramic.
- Keep the dome closed when not in use to protect the gasket
- Use the SpeediClean Ceramic Cleaner if cleaning the exterior ceramic. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools.
Common Questions
Big Green Egg Bundle FAQs
Questions we get asked most before a BGE bundle purchase. Not covered here? Call us or visit the showroom.
What is included in a Big Green Egg bundle?
Every BGE bundle includes the Egg itself plus a stand or nest system. Depending on the bundle, this may be an Acacia hardwood table, a modular nest, an intEGGrated nest and handler, or a built-in configuration. Most bundles also include a convEGGtor, charcoal, and SpeediLight starters. Each bundle page lists exactly what is included.
Do Big Green Egg bundles come with a warranty?
Yes. The ceramic components carry a lifetime warranty for residential use when purchased through an authorised dealer. Metal components carry a 5-year structural warranty, the convEGGtor 3 years, and the temperature gauge and gasket 1 year. The warranty requires registration and is only valid through authorised dealers like BBQ Republic.
Do you deliver and install Big Green Egg bundles in Sydney?
Yes. BBQ Republic offers free delivery and installation across Sydney on all Big Green Egg bundles. We deliver, assemble, and leave you ready to cook. No flat-pack assembly, no extra cost. Sales and delivery are available within New South Wales.
Which Big Green Egg size should I buy?
The Large is the most popular choice and the size we recommend most after seven years cooking on BGE. It feeds 4 to 6 people and handles everything from weeknight steaks to 16-hour briskets. The XL suits larger groups. The Medium suits couples or smaller spaces. The MiniMax is the most portable. If you are unsure, visit our Wetherill Park showroom and we will walk you through the options in person.

What can I cook on a Big Green Egg?
Everything. The Big Green Egg operates from 75 degrees to over 370 degrees, making it suitable for direct grilling at high heat, low and slow smoking, indirect roasting, baking, and pizza. With the convEGGtor included in most bundles, you can use every cooking method from day one.
Do I need to register my Big Green Egg for the warranty?
Yes. Registration is required for the warranty to be valid. The warranty covers the original registered purchaser and requires purchase from an authorised dealer. All warranty claims for EGGs purchased through BBQ Republic are handled directly through us.
