Tomahawk Steak
A perfectly seared, thick-cut steak cooked directly over the coals. Because you are cooking at high temperatures, always remember to "burp" your Egg to prevent a backdraft (a sudden flash of flame) from the rush of oxygen!
Ingredients
Directions
Light your Big Green Egg and stabilize it for direct cooking at 500°F (260°C).
While the grill heats, coat the steak generously on all sides. Don't forget the thick edges!
First Side: Place the steak directly over the coals. Close the dome and sear for 3 minutes.
The Flip: "Burp" the Egg (open it slightly to let air in slowly), flip the steak, and sear the other side for 3 minutes.
Close the dome and let the steak roast for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 15 minutes. This is the hardest part, but it's vital to keep the juices from running out onto the cutting board. Slice against the grain and serve!

Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie
The ultimate dessert on the Big Green Egg. Gooey, crunchy, and spiked with bourbon. The smoke adds a complexity ovens can't match.
Ingredients
Directions
Pull out your pie crust and let it come to room temperature before beginning.
Pre-heat Big Green Egg to 350° F. Wait for a clean, clear smoke to be observed before placing the pie on the Egg. You want a clean fire. 🔥
While your Egg is preheating you can start making your pie. Mix your syrup, brown sugar, melted butter (make sure it’s not hot before adding eggs), eggs, bourbon, salt, pecans (1 cup, reserve 1/2 cup to top), and chocolate chips. And stir together until it’s all incorporated. 🥣
Roll out your pie crust into a greased pie pan. Crimp the crust edges for appearance. Fill the crust with your mixture and add the remaining pecans (whole pieces) to the top to dress it up.
Place onto your Egg and let cook for about 40 minutes ⏲️, at this point, check for doneness. If it’s not done this time, come back in another 10 minutes and check until it’s done to your liking. 🥧 ⏲️
