Asado Gaucho

The Asado Gaucho XXL is not just a grill, it is a celebration of fire, flavor, and tradition. Designed for those who appreciate the art of outdoor cooking, this exceptional grill invites you to embrace the slow-cooking process, savoring every moment as you wait for the perfect ember to form. Whether using firewood or charcoal, this grill is built for those who demand authenticity and excellence.

Inspired by the South American Asado Tradition

Rooted in the time-honored Asado grilling culture of South America, the Asado Gaucho XXL offers a unique and immersive way to cook. A central Brasero allows you to burn firewood, transforming it into glowing embers that are then distributed beneath the grilling surface. This traditional technique ensures consistent heat while allowing for maximum control over cooking temperatures.

The Asado Gaucho XXL features:

• A central Brasero for controlled firewood burning.
• Two identical grilling sections, each equipped with a height-adjustable grate.
• V-shaped stainless steel grates designed to collect and channel juices into removable trays for basting or disposal.
• Front access doors on both sides for easy replenishment of wood or charcoal.

The key to Asado grilling is mastering the embers, allowing the wood to burn down before spreading the glowing coals beneath the grates. With the adjustable height system, you can fine-tune the heat, bringing the food closer to the fire for intense searing or raising it for a slower, more delicate roast.

Precision Craftsmanship & Premium Materials

Crafted by Omberg, the Asado Gaucho XXL is engineered for longevity.

• High-grade 304 stainless steel construction ensures durability and resistance to the elements.
• Fireproof bricks lining the grill enhance heat retention and distribution.
• Large side wheels allow for effortless grate height adjustments.
• Safety locking mechanism ensures stability when raising or lowering the grill surface.

Master the Fire – Wood & Charcoal Cooking

At the heart of this grill is the central wood-burning chamber (Brasero), designed to create premium-quality embers for grilling. As the wood burns, the resulting coals drop through the grate, forming an ideal bed of embers. These can then be distributed evenly under the cooking grates by opening the front access panel.

For those who wish to expedite the process, a small amount of additional charcoal can be added to the ember bed, ensuring a consistent and strong heat source.

Mastering the Art of Asado

"Asado" is more than just grilling, it is a social ritual, bringing people together around the warmth of an open fire. The method focuses on slow cooking over wood or charcoal, allowing flavors to develop deeply and naturally.

Two Signature Asado Techniques:

• Al Asador – Slow-roasting a whole animal over an open flame.
• A la Parrilla – Using an adjustable-height Parrilla grill, where embers are carefully prepared in a Brasero before being transferred under the grates.

The Omberg Asado Gaucho XXL is a true Parrilla-style grill, allowing for both direct and indirect cooking. The built-in Brasero lets you generate a steady supply of embers, ensuring a controlled and consistent grilling experience.

Cooking with Firewood & Charcoal

The central fire basket (Brasero) is designed for burning firewood, which then breaks down into embers that are distributed under the grates. Over time, the ashes fall through, creating a perfect coal bed.

• Use the front access door to easily manage and distribute embers.
• To maintain a strong heat source, you can add extra charcoal to your ember bed as needed.
