I have wanted an Argentine grill for about a year now after my uncle did a cook for my family on his. So when I saw this the price and size seemed right and I pre-ordered. Glad I did. Assembly was a two person job but relatively smooth 2 hour process. I have done two cooks on it. First one was just simple steaks to thank my friend for helping. The second was a bit more elaborate and I used the grill to its full potential with an initial smoke of the meat. Food turned out awesome. Everything on the grill works and is super high quality. Feels like a very good value at its price.

This is the best grill you will ever buy and won’t regret trust me on this. The quality of the grill is so heavy duty. The grill comes with an all season cover not sure why it is not in the description. The assembly was really easy you just have to organized and open the screws as you go. Everything is labeled and separated nicely. Overall I recommend this 100

I bought this a few months ago and used it about 6 times. Besides being very sturdy and with good materials, I have a couple of issues with it. First, the metal bar that goes across the bottom of the grill over the bricks. This is very uncomfortable, being from Argentina I have never seen that before and it’s not great when trying to move hot coals, specially the back part. Another big issue is that when using the fire box, metal seems to expand and the grill gets stuck when moving up and down, even when using the metal bar, which looses a lot of the purpose of a a santa Maria/Argentina grill.

I assembled my grill about two weeks ago. The assembly took several hours, but was very easy with the BILT app. I am truly amazed at the quality of the grill for the price. This grill is a great value. I have used it twice, and it has worked flawlessly.

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!

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.

I purchased the Grill a month ago. Shipping took longer than stated but still not a bad experience. Impressed with the heavy duty steel and overall quality of the grill. Many parts but excellent easy follow assembly instructions only 3 minor part problems that any DIY person can correct if it occurs ( bad threading and 1 missing spring) cooked on it only 1 time so far but LOVED how it performed!!!

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

My anticipation for the Argentine/Santa Maria Grill was inspired by Francis Mallmann. The order was placed with Great Joy & before my eyes the assembly was taking place. Great direction- by the way. We had the delight of cooking Christmas dinner with the whole family.The fire was started as the coals began their story of giving off heat. We had pineapple hanging, two guinea hens on those fantastic stainless steel hooks,mushrooms & lemon halves. The steaks were placed on the grill last as the grill was lowered just above the coals. There was room for sausage for appetizer as the grill space acomodates plenty of cooking surface. Everybody loved to crank the big wheel while the sound repeats it's progress. This method of Argentine open fire cooking has made my wife like steak off the grill again. Everything about the Argentine /Santa Maria grill is Tremendous, fire bricks,latches on the door ,grates of heavy cast iron, It's the BEST. Cheers to Backyard. We even bought the Granda Grill Gazebo.

This is a super versatile grill, with tons of cooking space that allows for feeding a big group of people, or just having some interactive cooking with the family. We’ve done everything from burgers to slow cooking with the grates raised. Super impressed with the quality, and it’s a ton of fun to use.
