i bought my grill a couple weeks ago and my first cook was fresh Alaskan salmon absolutely awesome. little smoke flavor with salmon made it great. 2nd cook i cooked t-bone steaks therer were awesome also. there is a little learning curve but in no time you'll figure it out. christmas dinner were cooking 12 ribeyes, can't wait. fred

Y'all! This grill is awesome!! It came with a super nice cover and assembled easy! I do wish it had a place to hang grill tools as you grill. But I don't use the cooking hooks so we hang tools like the tongs and basting brush on those. The grill is heavy but they have super nice locking wheels which make moving around easy and then lock it so it stays.

as soon as my grandkids and got it together, they built a fire and grilled fresh trout on it . we love it. its so nice being able to control the heat by how much coals you put under it and easily raise and lower the grill, all the holes fit perfectly and there were plenty of extra bolts, etc. top qulity - you get what you pay for!

I own a Webber and a Green Egg, but I've always wanted to grill Argentinian style, but every time I looked at a Argentine Santa Maria Grill, they were way too expensive, up in the 5 to 7K. So when I found this one, I decided to give it a try. First of all, the assembly was so simple. The instructions were visual and well defined, every bold had a number and what was best, it had extra bolt, just in case I lost one. Another great detail, I don't particularly like the Argentinian V shape of the grille rods. I don't mind the juices of what I am cooking falling in the ambers and giving more flavor. But this grill has them out of cast iron, so the produce beautiful sear marks. I've already cooked some ribs and chickens and loved the absolute control of temperature and ambers. The only thing I wish, is that they also sold other accessories, like an angular griddle perfect for a cabrito or basio, or a rotisserie spinner, or a flat griddle for vegetables. Still, this grill turns a piece of cooking equipment into an entertainment center. A mate drink not included.

This is a great Santa Maria style grill. It well built with heavy enough materials to stand up to many years of use. I love that a quality cover is also provided with the grill. The grates are easily removed from their cradle for cleaning. Great price for what you get and better when you can buy it on a sale.

The Santa Maria Grill has quickly become my favorite way to cook outdoors. The heavy-duty build and smooth crank system make raising and lowering the grill grate effortless, giving me full control over heat for perfect steaks, tri-tips, and even veggies. The flavor you get from live fire cooking on this setup is unbeatable — it feels like bringing an authentic Santa Maria experience right to the backyard. It’s solid, well-designed, and built to last. If you’re serious about grilling over open flame, this grill is an absolute must-have.

Bought this for my wife's valentines gift she absolutely loves it been cooking on it for days thank you so much

great argentinian grill, easy to assemble.

I'm still in shock that I get to own a Santa Maria type grill. I've wanted one for years, but the pricing was just out of control. I was worried that I was going to "get what I paid for" here and have a bbq that might not last that long, but I was pleasantly surprised that this thing is a beast! Incredibly heavy and well built! Took some time to build but was very straight forward and quite easy. Cooking over live fire is a craft that I'm still working on but there is no going back for me! Thank you for making these accessable and making a great BBQ!

I took a bit of a risk buying this grill on preorder and man am I glad I did! I have been searching for an Argentine/S.M. style grill for awhile and this offering came along and the specs seemed perfect. I am so impressed with the quality and crafstmanship of this grill. Everything is well made and works beautifully. Spent fathers day with a cooler of beer having a remarkable grilling experience. Get a nice bed of embers and a few different cuts and enjoy!
