Why this open grill earns its place
The Bertha Asado brings controlled precision to live-fire cooking. Finished in a rich aubergine, this compact grill is built from 304 stainless steel and stands 751 mm tall with a 575 mm depth — scaled to fit outdoor dining areas without overwhelming the space. The distinctive wheel system lets you adjust grill height from 20 mm to 290 mm in seconds, moving from fierce searing heat down to low, gentle temperatures for slow-roasted finishes. That's the kind of responsiveness that turns live-fire from a spectacle into a real cooking technique.
Built on Argentinian cooking principles, the Asado handles both charcoal and wood fire with equal ease. Insulating tiles at the base reflect heat back into the cooking chamber, so fuel efficiency compounds across covers — a detail that accumulates when you're running 120+ covers. The removable drip tray, grill rack and ash collection drawer are engineered for speed: nothing needs dismantling to clear the grill between seatings, which in a high-turnover kitchen is precisely what you need.
Weighing 60 kg and built from materials that handle daily heavy use, the Asado is engineered for restaurants that treat their equipment like their menu. The aubergine finish is a deliberately distinctive statement — this is visible cooking equipment, not utility. A 2-year parts-and-labour warranty covers the unit.
