Hot Coals & Mighty Fine

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.

GRILLING AT IT'S BEST

I was a bit concerned to purchase because I was not able to see actual grill. Arrived as scheduled and on pallet. The material is very sturdy and secure. It did take some time to assemble but instructions are clear. Huge grill. Cooking area is big and comfortable to work on. All the added extras for hanging sausage and meats is a plus. Planning family gathering to enjoy a complete Argentine Parillada like back home.

Tasty Learning Curve!

My husband was so excited with his birthday gift, he went out and bought 2 cords of oak. We have been having tri-tip, chicken, roasts, and ribs in the 3 weeks he has had it. There is a learning curve to get it right, but the process of figuring it out is a lot of fun! And tasty!

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.

Great purchase! Great value

Neighbor and I assembled the grill in 3 hours. Instructions were great and the drilled holes aligned well. Have done two cooks on the grill and more than satisfied with the purchase.

Amazing Grill

Easy to assemble, made of amazing material, and very sturdy. I’ve already used it to cook for 100 people with incredible results. Loved it—wish I had bought it sooner. 100% recommended!

Built to last!

I am thrilled with the quality of the design. This is no light weight grill. Assembly was easy and done in under two hours. Firing it up today and already planning future feasts that will be prepared for friends and family.

Solid grill

Bought this a few weeks ago. Very sturdy and seems well constructed. Great for a day of Argentine asado. Mechanism of the wheel and grate seems promising and made of stainless. Made some great sausages and picana.
