Description

This is my version of the Santa Maria/Gaucho grill. These grills are designed and hand built in my shop here in western Kentucky! This Is a rolling hearth design for you to roll around on your porch or wherever you would like. This unit does NOT ship with fire brick they are just too heavy and it doesn’t make sense to ship those twice. These Units are measured by their overall width at the widest point. The only thing that is wider than the width of the listing is the wheel handle and it will hang past the overall dimensions of the grill unit. (Free Freight!).

The construction of our grill should stand us apart from the other big names. Instead of paper-thin steel, we use 1/8” Mild Steel on everything except for the firebox and it is a bit thicker! Making our grill much more solid and robust. Where the other manufacturer uses a steel-on-steel fit for the horizontal drive shaft, we use oil-impregnated bronze bushings and roller bearings! In other words, my grill doesn’t screech or squeak as you raise it and it operates extremely smoothly! The grate is built strong enough that I myself can walk across it on the shop floor and it does not even flex! Instead of using the traditional cables that will fray over time, we use ANSI 40 roller chains common on dirt bikes, etc. The grill grate is HD enough that we designed gear reduction so that the hand wheel is very easy to operate! It is designed with a ratcheting style setup so as you crank the wheel the grill clicks and locks into place as it goes up, when going back down gently roll the handle forward and pull the lever and let it go down to the desired height.

These can be made custom for you in any size you want however size and freight depict the price. If your size isn’t listed just message me and I’ll make arrangements for you to order the size your looking for. Thank you for your interest and support as always!
