Big Green Egg as a built-in?

RooCeleste · November 2011

Does anyone have their BGE built-in as part of an outdoor kitchen? We are building a kitchen off the side of our patio (it will be uncovered), and we will be including a Lynx gas grill. I have considered including a medium or large BGE to the side of the gas grill, so we will have charcoal and smoking ability available to us too. Has anyone done that? Any thoughts or things to consider? The kitchen will be stone with a poured concrete countertop.

Thanks!

The only mistake I made was not taking into consideration that the hinge drops down so far in the back. I originally had everything made so that the egg would sit on the green feet and that would be it the first picture. After everything was installed and I dropped the egg in an assembled it for the first time I found out I messed up on that. I wanted the top of the granite closer to the top of the egg like in pic 1 vs pic 2.
