Because you can grill, roast, smoke and bake on a egg, you can prepare an incredibly wide variety of healthy, tasty foods with ease. Try these recipes to get started:

Bourbon Glazed Cold Smoked Salmon

Not only is salmon delicious, it’s good for you. This recipe adds incredible flavor to this heart-healthy fish.

Tuna is another excellent protein choice when you’re trying to eat well. Flavored with soy sauce, pineapple, honey and Sriracha then quickly seared in a cast iron skillet on your Big Green Egg, you can serve this in a traditional Hawaiian poke.
