Tagwood BBQ Argentine Wood Fire & Charcoal Gaucho Grill - 304 Stainless Steel - BBQ18SS
The most accessible way into Argentine live-fire cooking, in stainless. A 32-inch grate over real embers, a firebrick brasero, and a body that never needs paint.
Key Features
- Two heights, one fire: Lift the round-bar main grate to either preset position with the included lifting hooks. Low to sear, high to roast.
- The brasero does the hard work: Burn hardwood or lump charcoal down to embers in the firebrick-lined firebox, then rake them under the grate exactly where you want heat.
- 556 square inches: A 32 1/4" x 17 1/4" main grate handles a full family asado. An optional secondary grate over the brasero (sold separately) adds a finishing zone.
- Stainless steel body: Stainless frame with grate, shovel, and poker in 304 stainless. No repainting, no patina management.
- Top lid and front drawer: Cover the grate between cooks; pull the drawer for ash cleanup and fire management.
- Drain system: Rain never pools in the firebox.
- Fully mobile: Heavy-duty casters, two with brakes.
The Asado Experience
An asado is not a meal you cook and serve; it is an afternoon you host. The fire gets lit, friends arrive, and the cook is never alone at the grill because the grill is where everyone wants to stand.
The Tagwood BBQ18SS strips that experience down to its essentials. There is no crank, no clamp, no hood. There is a wide grate, a box for the fire, and two heights to choose from. It is the grill for someone who wants to learn to cook with embers and wants it to look the same in ten years, and it is built by the same hands as the Beast.
How You Cook On It
Light a few splits of oak or hickory, or a chimney of lump charcoal, in the brasero. In twenty minutes you have embers. Rake them under the main grate with the included shovel: a thick bed on one side for searing, a scatter on the other for finishing.
Set the grate on the low position and lay a skirt steak down. The round bar lets fat roll toward the drain instead of pooling and flaring. Lift it to the high position with the hooks, put a whole chicken on, and let it roast slowly in radiant heat while you tend the fire. Two heights cover ninety percent of what an asador does.
Add the optional secondary grate over the brasero and you have a third zone, the hottest on the grill, for chorizo, provoleta, and bread.
Built Like A Tank
Where the Chief Series BBQ18SI uses painted cold-rolled steel, the BBQ18SS is stainless steel throughout, with a 304-grade grate and tools. That means no repainting, no patina, and a grill that can live uncovered on the patio in humid or coastal climates. The firebox is lined with refractory firebrick that stores heat and protects the steel from direct flame. At 267 pounds it is not going anywhere in the wind.

Which Tagwood Is Right For You?
- BBQ18SI Chief: Same grill in black steel, $1,000 less. Develops patina over time.
- BBQ18SS: This one. Stainless, no maintenance.
- BBQ03SS: Step up to a crank-adjustable grate, secondary grate, griddle, and eight hooks included. 714 square inches, all 304 stainless.
Questions Asadores Ask
Will it rust? No. Stainless steel resists corrosion in humid and coastal environments. Rinse off salt spray occasionally and it stays bright.
What wood should I burn? Any dense hardwood: oak, hickory, mesquite, or traditional quebracho. Lump charcoal works too.
How long until I'm cooking? About twenty minutes from lighting the brasero to a working bed of embers.
How much assembly? The grill body arrives assembled. You attach the casters and side table, under an hour with two people.
How many people can it feed? The 32 1/4" x 17 1/4" grate holds six to eight large steaks or two whole chickens. Comfortably a family of eight to ten.

Estimated Delivery Time
Post shipment, anticipate your items within a timeframe of 3-5 business days. We utilize UPS and FedEx for smaller items. It's crucial to note that more substantial items and certain orders are dispatched via freight. Freight shipping is somewhat more intricate compared to regular parcel deliveries, hence understanding the process in advance ensures a smooth delivery experience.
Freight Shipment Specifics
The majority of freight items are shipped on pallets. Some delivery companies will reach out to fix a delivery slot, whereas others aim to drop off your order at the most accessible spot nearest to your home, preferably close to a garage. The shipping confirmation email will detail the specific delivery procedures to anticipate.
For Scheduled Delivery
Companies that arrange delivery slots necessitate your presence for the delivery and your signature for confirmation. Deliveries are made using a semi-truck with lift gate service, placing the shipment by the curb. Should you grant permission for the delivery to be left unsupervised, BBQ Kitchen Pros cannot assume responsibility for any ensuing damages. The process might seem daunting, but for a comprehensive understanding, we recommend you peruse our thorough freight delivery guide to prevent unforeseen challenges.
For Non-Scheduled Deliveries
Delivery services that don't operate on appointments don't mandate your presence or a scheduled delivery slot. There's also no signature required upon receipt. Without the hassle of scheduling or waiting around, let the delivery come to you. If you're home during the drop-off, the driver can be asked to place your items in the garage. If you're away, they'll position it close to the garage or main entry.
