The Large Built-In Package is designed for anyone building a permanent outdoor kitchen and wanting the Large Big Green Egg installed flush within a countertop, island, or custom surround. It includes the Large EGG, the Table Nest that is mandatory for any built-in configuration, and all the essential cooking accessories to get started immediately.
The Large is Big Green Egg's bestselling model and the most purchased EGG size in Australia. With a 46 cm cooking grid and 1,688 cm² of cooking surface, it is specified for 4 to 6 people and can cook 12 burgers, 2 whole chickens, or 4 Boston butts (approximately 3.6 kg each) at a time. For households planning a permanent outdoor kitchen, the Large provides the cooking surface to justify that investment without needing to step up to the XL footprint.
We have been cooking on Big Green Eggs since 2017 and as a Platinum Dealer, the Large EGG is on display at our Wetherill Park showroom. If you are in the planning stages of an outdoor kitchen build, we can walk through the installation requirements with you before construction begins.
What is includedEverything in This Package
Large Big Green Egg
46 cm cooking grid. 1,688 cm² cooking surface. For 4 to 6 people. 73 kg. The most sold EGG in Australia.
Table Nest
Mandatory for any built-in installation. Provides essential airflow underneath the EGG and distributes the 73 kg weight correctly. 50.8 x 7.93 x 3.17 cm. 9.07 kg. Never install without it.
convEGGtor
Ceramic heat deflector for indirect cooking. Redirects heat around the food from all sides. Makes smoking, roasting, and baking possible alongside direct grilling.
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
One bag of Big Green Egg Natural Lump Charcoal, available in Oak and Hickory or Canadian Maple depending on stock.
SpeediLight Natural Charcoal Starters
All-natural fire starters for lighting the EGG without accelerants or lighter fluid. Limited lifetime warranty on ceramic components requires registration.
What You Can Cook From Day One
With the convEGGtor included, the Large handles the full range of cooking methods available on any Big Green Egg:
Direct grilling at high heat: steaks, burgers, fish, vegetables
Indirect smoking and roasting using the convEGGtor
Low and slow cooking at sustained temperatures using the dual-vent airflow system
Baking and pizza with appropriate accessories added separately
The 46 cm grid and 1,688 cm² of cooking surface provides practical capacity for regular entertaining and larger gatherings, and is the reason the Large is the most purchased EGG size in the country. The ceramic construction holds temperature consistently across extended cooks with minimal vent adjustment.

Built-In Installation: What You Need to Know
The built-in configuration requires planning before any construction begins. The Table Nest included in this package is a mandatory component. Big Green Egg is clear that the EGG must never be placed directly into a countertop or outdoor kitchen opening without the Table Nest providing airflow underneath and supporting the weight correctly.
Important: Never install the Large EGG directly into a countertop opening without the Table Nest. Doing so creates heat damage risk to the surrounding structure and voids the warranty. The Table Nest is included in this package.
Airflow
Air must circulate under the Table Nest at all times. Either through ventilation openings in the base of the surrounding structure or through an open storage area below. Blocking airflow causes heat damage to the surrounding structure.
Opening Dimensions
Must be sized to fit the Table Nest correctly with adequate support on all sides. Refer to the measurement manual for exact specifications before any construction begins.
Dome Clearance
Above the EGG must allow the dome to open fully without obstruction. Confirm total height clearance from the countertop surface upward before finalising the design.
Structural Support
Must account for the 73 kg weight of the Large EGG. Your builder needs to plan for this before the countertop is constructed. Surrounding materials must be non-combustible: stone, concrete, and tile are appropriate.
We can help: We strongly recommend having the installation reviewed by a professional familiar with Big Green Egg's built-in requirements. Contact us before construction begins and we can provide the necessary specification sheet.
Size comparison
Large vs Medium for a Built-In Outdoor Kitchen
Both the Large and Medium are available as built-in packages. The difference comes down to cooking capacity, footprint, and weight.
| Large (this bundle) | Medium | |
|---|---|---|
| Cooking surface | 1,688 cm² | 1,140 cm² |
| Grid diameter | 46 cm | 38 cm |
| Serves | 4 to 6 people | 2 to 5 people |
| EGG weight | 73 kg | 52 kg |
| Countertop footprint | Larger cutout required | Smaller cutout required |
| Best for | Regular entertaining for 4 or more, full cooking capacity | Compact outdoor kitchens, smaller households |
| On display at showroom | Yes | Yes |
The Medium (1,140 cm² / 38 cm grid) suits households of 2 to 5 people or outdoor kitchens where space is constrained. At 52 kg it also places less structural demand on the surrounding bench. For tighter outdoor kitchen designs, the Medium's smaller cutout may be the more practical choice.
The Large (1,688 cm² / 46 cm grid) provides the additional 548 cm² that makes a meaningful difference when cooking for 4 or more people regularly, or when you want the full range of cooking capacity from the EGG. For a dedicated, permanent outdoor kitchen where the design allows the Large's footprint, it is the more capable long-term choice. We can help you compare the two in our showroom before you finalise your design.
WarrantyWarranty Coverage
The warranty coverage for the Large Built-In Package follows the standard Big Green Egg warranty structure. The warranty is valid only for EGGs purchased from an Authorised Dealer and requires registration by the original purchaser. Installing the EGG without the Table Nest or in a way that does not follow Big Green Egg's published specifications can void warranty coverage. All warranty claims for EGGs purchased through BBQ Republic are handled directly through us.
| Ceramic components (dome, base, damper top, fire box, fire ring) | Limited lifetime warranty for residential use, to the original registered purchaser |
| Metal components (bands, hinge, cooking grid, fire grate, vent cap, draft door) | 5-year structural integrity warranty for residential use |
| convEGGtor | 3-year limited warranty for residential use |
| Temperature gauge and gasket | 1-year limited warranty |
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 voids 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.

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.
