Lisa and the EGG

As part of Big Green Egg’s 50th birthday celebrations, we’re sharing 50 brand-new recipes from an amazing cast of cooks. Next up is presenter, author and food lover Lisa Snowdon. Lisa has a strong interest in health, nutrition and wellbeing, and spending time in the open air is vital to her sense of self. “Being out in nature, it recentres me, it grounds me,” she says. “You just kind of decompress and then everything’s okay again.”

The EGG is the tool that connects her appreciation of healthy food with her love of nature. “I love the Big Green Egg because I can cook outdoors all through the year. I love cooking outside, serving food outdoors, watching people eat your food – that’s just pure joy. You just go with the flow, go with the elements.”

Living it Large

Lisa cooked her recipes in a Large Big Green Egg. The Large is the perfect EGG for a natural host like Lisa – big enough to cook a generous dinner for friends or family but compact enough to suit almost any outdoor setting. Here, it’s embedded in a Premium Royal Mahogany Table, a show-stopping base made from sustainably sourced mahogany, with plenty of surface space for prepping, resting and serving your creations.
