Dual function metal vent cap – By adjusting the openings in the vent cap you can adjust the cooking temperature from 200 degrees to 700 degrees.  Close it completely to “snuff” out the fire and preserve the rest of your charcoal for next time.Temperature Gauge – easily allows you to check the internal temperature.Cooking Grid – Every BGE comes with a porcelain coated cooking grid.  You can upgrade to a cast iron cooking grid, griddle or half griddle/half grid.  There are also option grid extenders when you want to cook for bigger groups.

Fire Ring – spaces the cooking grid the appropriate distance from the coals.

Fire Box – holds the charcoal.  One load of charcoal in a large BGE will last approximately 10 hours at 200 degrees.

Grate – covers the bottom of the fire box and is perforated for maximum air flow from the lower vent to the vent cap.

Draft Door – adjust the opening of the draft door like the vent cap to reach the desired cooking temperature.  Also opens fully to remove the charcoal ash.
