Asado Gaucho 1000 Built-In – A South American-Inspired Grilling Experience

The Asado Gaucho 1000 Built-In is a testament to the time-honored grilling traditions of South America. Designed with authenticity in mind, this grill features a side-mounted “Side Brasero” where firewood is burned to create glowing embers, which are then used to cook your food. Given that Asado grilling is deeply rooted in the culture of Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Chile, and southern Brazil, these grills are crafted with ample cooking space, ideal for preparing large quantities of meat—the hallmark of a true Asado feast.

Customize Your Outdoor Cooking Space

With this built-in model, you have the freedom to design your own outdoor kitchen while the Asado grill provides the essential hardware. Crafted entirely from high-quality stainless steel, the grill is built for durability and performance. The adjustable grill grate allows for precise heat control, ensuring optimal cooking conditions for every dish.

The grates themselves are V-shaped, an intentional design that collects and channels fat into designated trays rather than letting it drip onto the embers. This feature is a key element of traditional Asado grilling, as it prevents excess smoke and enhances the purity of the food’s natural flavors.

The Art of Asado – A Culinary Tradition

Asado" is more than a method of grilling—it is a cultural experience, akin to American barbecue but rooted in the traditions of South America, particularly Argentina. It is about cooking over an open flame, taking time to develop deep, rich flavors, and, most importantly, gathering with friends and family to share in the joy of good food.

Authentic Asado grilling is typically done at lower temperatures over extended periods, ensuring that the meat remains tender and infused with the essence of firewood or charcoal.

Two Signature Asado Methods:

• Al Asador – The slow roasting of a whole animal over an open fire, either on the ground or in a fire pit.
• A la Parrilla – Grilling on a height-adjustable Parrilla grill, where embers are prepared in a separate Brasero before being distributed under the grate.

The Omberg Asado Gaucho 1000 is a true Parrilla-style grill, equipped with an adjustable grate that enables both direct and indirect grilling. Lower the grate for a high-temperature sear or raise it for slow roasting. The built-in Brasero ensures that you can continuously generate fresh embers, maintaining consistent and controlled heat throughout your cooking process.

Versatility and Performance

This South American-inspired grill provides endless cooking possibilities:

• Generous Cooking Surface – Ideal for large gatherings, allowing you to grill everything from juicy steaks to an array of vegetables and sausages.
• Rotisserie Compatibility – A rotisserie spit (sold separately) enables slow, even roasting for unmatched tenderness.
• Heavy-Duty Meat Hooks – Expand your cooking techniques or maximize grill space with additional accessories.

The Role of Firewood and Charcoal

The side-mounted Brasero is designed for burning firewood, which transforms into high-quality embers for grilling. This technique, deeply ingrained in South American grilling culture, allows for two distinct cooking approaches:

• Placing the embers directly beneath the food for an intense, traditional grilling experience.
• Arranging the embers around the food to avoid direct contact with drippings, preserving the pure, natural flavors of the ingredients without excessive smokiness.

With the Omberg Asado Gaucho 1000 Built-In, you are not just grilling—you are embracing a centuries-old tradition, where fire, flavor, and craftsmanship come together to create an extraordinary outdoor cooking experience.
