Santa Maria grill - great choice!

I recently purchased the Santa Maria grill, and after roughly two months of use, I can confidently say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. This grill is a fantastic addition to my outdoor cooking setup. From the moment I unboxed it, I was impressed by the sturdy construction and sleek design. Assembly was straightforward, thanks to the clear instructions provided. Once set up, I was eager to test its performance, and it did not disappoint. Once it gets going, the Santa Maria grill maintains an even temperature, making it perfect for grilling everything from burgers and steaks to vegetables and fish. The cooking surface is spacious, allowing me to prepare meals for family gatherings effortlessly. The grates are easy to clean, which adds to the overall convenience. One of my favorite features is the height adjustment, which has made cooking even more enjoyable. Whether I'm grilling for a small family dinner or a larger get-together, this grill handles it all with ease. Overall, I'm thrilled with my purchase. The Santa Maria grill has transformed my outdoor cooking experience, and I look forward to many more delicious meals ahead. If you're in the market for a reliable and efficient grill, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

Great value!!

I’ve been looking for a Santa Maria style grill for a while and there are a ton of options on the market that range from cheap (both in materials used and price) and super expensive. There is a lot of value in this grill for the type of materials used and different components it offers. The fire bricks are not a feature you see on a lot of grills. The quality of materials is evident with the results of the cooks. Very impressed and looking forward to trying a bunch of different types of cooks.

Top quality, beautifully designed

I’m really impressed by the quality of this grill. It’s solid and all the features (raising/lowering grate, front door to firebox, even the locks on the casters are well designed and robustly built. I was pleasantly surprised. It’s a great value for the price. I had a task rabbit guy assemble it because it was too heavy and difficult for me (I have one arm) it took him three hours. I checked out the online guide and it seemed well thought out and not difficult to follow. I’m enjoying cooking on it.

Looks Great but...

It looks like a great product. Well-built and backed by this good company. However, I believe it is missing an essential element which is the “V-Shaped” signature Argentinian Grill. I understand it could increase the price, but maybe it could be offered as an option to guarantee fit?

Solidly built, works as expected

I pre-ordered this well over a month ago it was a long wait took about 10 days for the shipper to get it to my house from the middle of the country. Once it got here I moved it to where I was going to assemble it and it promptly rained for 2 days. Once I put it together (which was extremely easy and straightforward using the built app) it rained for another 3 days so all I could do was season it and I couldn't cook on it. However the sun did come out and when it did I put sirloin cap on there Hung myself a pineapple and started cooking. I'd love to tell you everything came out great but I don't know I'm still in mid cook and having a blast with my new grill. I love the brasaro I can see how it will be needed for longer cooks. The adjustable height of the grill is awesome and completes the package. This product is extremely well-built and when they say it weighs 375 lb they're not kidding this thing is a beast. Can't wait to keep cooking on it and to polish my live fire skills

The Santa Maria Grill, what a pleasant surprise!!!

I was initially skeptical about purchasing the Santa Maria grill, but after setting it up and using it, I’m thoroughly impressed. The assembly was straightforward, and the build quality exceeded my expectations—it feels sturdy and durable. The grill itself cooks beautifully. The adjustable height of the grate allows for precise heat control, which makes managing the cooking process a breeze. Whether I’m grilling steaks, veggies, or even seafood, the results have been fantastic every time. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the performance of this grill. It’s easy to use, efficient, and has quickly become my go-to cooking tool. If you’re on the fence, I highly recommend giving it a try!

Love the Santa Maria/Argentine Grill

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.

Husband is obsessed with grilling now!

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.

Top Notch BBQ

The build quality of the grill is exceptional. It is made of high-quality materials that feel sturdy and durable. The grill grate is made of heavy-duty stainless steel, which provides even heat distribution but also makes it easy to clean after use. Fun to use, looks great and feels like it will last a lifetime!
