Available Sizes

All fireboxes are 24" deep × 12" high.

The larger 60", 72", and 84" models provide expanded cooking capacity and are excellent options for restaurants, commercial live-fire kitchens, catering operations, and other higher-volume cooking applications.

Firebox Protection: We recommend lining the bottom of the firebox with split firebricks (not included) to help protect the firebox, extend its service life, and improve heat retention.

Choose Your Construction

3/16" Black Steel with Stainless Steel Grilling Surfaces

Rugged and traditional, black steel provides excellent heat retention and the classic appearance of a live-fire grill. Stainless steel grilling surfaces provide durability and easier maintenance where food is cooked.

All Stainless Steel Construction

Durable, corrosion-resistant, and lower maintenance. All stainless steel construction is especially well suited for coastal or high-humidity environments, or for customers who prefer the appearance and maintenance advantages of stainless steel.

Complimentary Argentine BBQ Tool Set Included

Every Model #4480 includes a matching Argentine BBQ tool set at no additional charge.

• Black Steel Grill: Includes our Black Steel Argentine BBQ Tool Set — a $432 value
• Stainless Steel Grill: Includes our Stainless Steel Argentine BBQ Tool Set — an $802 value

The included tool set provides the essential tools for managing food while cooking over a live wood or charcoal fire.

How the Center Brasero Works

The center brasero is at the heart of traditional Argentine live-fire cooking and provides a continuous source of hot cooking embers.

Load hardwood into the brasero and allow it to burn down. As glowing embers are produced, distribute them beneath the left or right cooking grate to create the heat zones you need.

Because each cooking grate adjusts independently, you can lower one grate closer to the embers for high-heat searing while raising the other for slower cooking, finishing, or holding food.

Prefer charcoal? Model #4480 can also be used with charcoal placed directly beneath the cooking grates.

Two Independent Cooking Zones

One of the biggest advantages of the #4480 is the ability to control each side of the grill separately.

Instead of managing one large cooking surface at a single height, you can position each grate according to the food you're preparing. Sear steaks over higher heat on one side while cooking chicken, vegetables, sausages, seafood, or other foods more slowly on the other.

The center brasero supplies both cooking zones, allowing you to add and redistribute fresh embers throughout the cook without disturbing the food.

For restaurants, this independent control also gives chefs greater flexibility during service, allowing different foods and cooking temperatures to be managed simultaneously on the same grill.

Residential Outdoor Cooking

For the serious backyard cook, the #4480 provides the space and control to prepare everything from a family dinner to a large outdoor gathering.

The combination of two independently adjustable Argentine V-grates, a center brasero, separate hand-wheel controls, and heavy-duty casters creates a versatile live-fire cooking system that can become the centerpiece of an outdoor cooking area.

Choose from five firebox widths to match your available space and the amount of cooking capacity you need.

Commercial Restaurant Applications

Model #4480 is also available for restaurant and professional live-fire cooking applications. Commercial configurations and optional NSF certification are available through NorCal Ovenworks Inc., our commercial grill division.

The two independently adjustable cooking grates allow chefs to maintain different cooking temperatures and grate heights simultaneously, while the center brasero provides a continuous source of fresh hardwood embers throughout service.

The larger 60", 72", and 84" sizes provide substantial cooking capacity for:

• Restaurants and steakhouses
• Commercial live-fire kitchens
• Hotels and resorts
• Wineries and breweries
