#4793 Commercial Split Santa Maria Grill for Food Trucks

NSF Certified | Made in the USA

Built for high-volume live-fire cooking, the #4793 Commercial Split Santa Maria Grill for Food Trucks combines two independently adjustable cooking surfaces in one heavy-duty commercial grill. This split design allows operators to prepare different foods at different temperatures while cooking over the flavor and heat of a real wood or charcoal fire.

One side features a traditional Santa Maria-style round-rod grate, while the other includes an Argentine-style V-grate with a drip pan. Each cooking surface is controlled by its own large side wheel, giving the operator the ability to raise or lower either grate independently as cooking conditions change.

Designed for demanding commercial use, this grill includes removable lids, heavy-duty casters, a lower storage shelf, and toggle anchors for improved stability during transport and operation.

Two Cooking Surfaces, Independent Heat Control

Live-fire cooking requires the ability to respond quickly as the intensity of the fire changes. The split configuration of the #4793 provides two separate cooking zones that can be adjusted without interrupting service.

Each cooking grate has its own side wheel and lift system. One grate can be positioned closer to the fire for high-heat searing while the other remains elevated for slower cooking, warming, or holding finished food. This flexibility makes it easier to prepare multiple menu items simultaneously and maintain a steady workflow during busy service periods.

Santa Maria and Argentine-Style Grates

The two cooking-surface styles provide added versatility for a wide range of meats, vegetables, and other wood-fired menu items.

The traditional Santa Maria-style round-rod grate provides a familiar open grilling surface suitable for steaks, burgers, chicken, vegetables, and general-purpose cooking.

The Argentine-style V-grate channels grease and drippings away from the cooking fire and into the included drip pan. It is well suited for meats that release more rendered fat during cooking while still delivering the flavor and presentation associated with live-fire grilling.

Together, these two grate styles allow operators to choose the cooking surface best suited to each menu item.

Built for Food Trucks and Mobile Cooking Operations

The #4793 is equipped with commercial-grade casters so it can be moved and positioned as needed. Once installed inside a food truck or catering trailer, the heavy-duty toggle-anchor system helps hold the grill securely in place.

This combination of mobility and anchoring allows the grill to be repositioned when necessary while providing added stability during transportation and food service. Two removable lids cover the cooking areas when the grill is not in use.

A full-width expanded-metal shelf beneath the firebox provides convenient storage for grilling tools, fuel, and other supplies that need to remain within reach during service.

Material and Configuration Options

The #4793 can be built in black steel or stainless steel to suit the needs of your operation. Black-steel models include stainless steel grilling surfaces for durability in the areas that receive the most direct cooking use.

Optional equipment can also be added to expand the grill’s capabilities. A rotisserie provides another method for cooking meat over the fire, while an overhead sign frame creates space for displaying your business name or branding.

Because every commercial grill is built to order, available materials, cooking surfaces, accessories, and installation requirements can be discussed before fabrication begins.

Its independently adjustable grates allow cooks to manage multiple foods and cooking temperatures from a single grill, while its mobile frame and anchoring system make it especially well suited for food trucks and catering trailers.
