Know before you buy
Yes, the wok is designed to work with most charcoal grills, including Big Green Egg and other standard ceramic or charcoal models.
No, it arrives pre-seasoned with a non-stick surface, so you can start cooking immediately.
No, this wok is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the carbon steel and the non-stick seasoning, it should be hand-washed and dried thoroughly after each use.
Carbon steel offers the high heat conductivity and durability of cast iron but is significantly lighter and more responsive to temperature changes, making it easier to handle during stir-frying.
While the stainless-steel handles are durable and designed for easy serving, they will get hot when used over an open charcoal fire. Always use heat-resistant gloves or mitts when handling the wok on the grill.
