The Big Green Egg is a kamado style barbecue made from ceramics, which is not really a new idea. Kamado is a traditional Japanese wood fired oven made of clay, and the Japanese have been using them for about 3,000 years.
The green layer around the yolk of a hard-cooked egg comes from the chemical reaction of the iron in the yolk with the sulfur in the white. This can be lessened or even avoided by not overcooking the eggs. Apparently, this discoloration also shows up the longer the cooked eggs are kept. It is still safe to eat.
