Description

Overview
The Argentine Santa Maria XL is a world-class, professional-grade live fire cooking station engineered for the serious pitmaster and outdoor culinary enthusiast. Boasting a massive, extra-large cooking surface, this grill is designed to master the traditional art of “Asado” and Santa Maria-style barbecue. The defining feature is its precision height-adjustable grate system, controlled by a heavy-duty side wheel and stainless steel aircraft cable. This allows you to raise or lower your food over the wood or charcoal flames with surgical precision, providing total control over searing temperatures and slow-roasting environments.
Built for industrial-strength performance, the Santa Maria XL features an integrated Brasa Brasero (wood starter), which allows you to burn whole logs down into hot coals before raking them under the cooking surface. The grates are crafted with a specialized V-channel design, sloped forward to catch meat drippings and channel them into a removable grease tray. This not only prevents flare-ups that can char your meat but also bastes the food in its own juices for unparalleled flavor. Constructed from high-gauge steel with a firebrick-lined base, this grill is a permanent, high-heat masterpiece built for a lifetime of legendary backyard gatherings.
Top Performance Features
Precision Crank-Lift System: A heavy-duty flywheel and locking pawl allow you to adjust the grate height mid-cook, instantly moving from high-heat searing to low-and-slow smoking.
Integrated Wood Brasero: A dedicated side basket for burning down hardwood logs into clean-burning embers, ensuring a continuous supply of fresh coals for all-day grilling.
Sloped V-Channel Grates: Engineered to divert fat and juices away from the fire into a catch pan, virtually eliminating flare-ups and acrid smoke while protecting the flavor profile.
Dual-Zone Firebox: The extra-large footprint provides enough space to manage multiple temperature zones simultaneously, perfect for searing steaks while slow-cooking whole chickens.
Firebrick-Lined Base: The floor of the grill is lined with high-density firebricks that reflect heat back toward the meat, maximizing fuel efficiency and protecting the steel frame.
Industrial-Grade Steel Construction: Built with heavy-gauge, heat-resistant steel and finished with high-temp powder coating to withstand the extreme temperatures of live-fire cooking.
Removable Drip Tray & Ash Cleanout: Features a streamlined maintenance system for quick disposal of grease and spent ash, keeping your outdoor kitchen pristine.
Professional Mobility: Equipped with large, heavy-duty locking casters that allow you to move this massive unit across patios and decks with ease.
