Asado Gunmetal

The Asado Gunmetal Grill is our best-seller. No wonder,  it's the perfect all-rounder, big enough to cope with big groups, small enough for just four. Delivered fully assembled. 10-year warranty included.

The 660mm × 320mm cooking surface is bigger than most large family barbecues, with the ember maker adding extra space on top. Wind the handle to raise or lower the grill in seconds, no guesswork. Keep topping up the ember maker with logs and cook for as long as you like.

Cook thick-cut steaks, whole chicken, slow-roasted lamb shoulder, vegetables, pizza, casseroles, 12 ways to cook, all over live fire with the flavour and theatre that's made Argentinian grilling one of the fastest-growing outdoor cooking styles in the UK. Voted Hottest BBQ Trend by The Times. Best UK Asado Grill by The Independent.

Made from heavy-duty mild steel and oil-treated before leaving our factory. It will develop a rusty patina over time if left untreated. That's normal for this kind of steel, and you've got two ways to handle it: keep it seasoned, or let it weather naturally. Full care guide below.

The 304 stainless steel V Grill channels fat away from the fire for clean, consistent cooking with zero flare-ups.

Gunmetal is mild steel with an oil treatment. It's a durable, long-lasting finish, but unlike Cor-Ten it can't look after itself — give it a bit of attention and it'll stay looking sharp for years.

We pre-oil your grill with rapeseed oil before it leaves our factory. Light your first fire and you're finishing the seasoning off, just like seasoning a wok or cast-iron pan.

From there, you've got two ways to handle it. Both are fine.

Option 1: Keep it seasoned. A quick coat of rapeseed oil on the ember maker after each cook, and the rest of the grill whenever it needs it. Keep it covered when not in use and it'll stay looking sharp for years.

Option 2: Let it weather. Leave it alone and it'll develop a natural rusty patina over time. The thickness of the raw steel base means it'll still last 10+ years without any intervention.

Neither is wrong. It's your grill.

A few things worth knowing:

Year-round outdoor use. Our grills are built to live outside through every season. Cover it during heavy rain or high winds, but otherwise it's happy out there. Autumn and winter are honestly our favourite times to cook on them.

After a wet winter. Even well-covered grills can pick up some surface rust after a particularly wet spell. It's not damage and the steel underneath isn't compromised. Rub the affected areas with wire wool or a stiff brush to lift the loose rust, wipe the grill down with rapeseed oil, and fire it up. The heat cures the oil into the steel, just like seasoning a wok.

Looking after the Woodstore stand. Your Woodstore stand comes with a can of Owatrol Oil. If you spot any surface rust, rub it down with wire wool or a stiff brush, spray on the Owatrol, leave for 15 minutes, then wipe off the excess. Owatrol penetrates the surface and stabilises any remaining rust rather than just sitting on top of it. A quick treatment at the start and end of each season keeps it looking great.

Covers. Worth using one if you're going Option 1. Less essential if you're going Option 2 and letting it weather naturally.

Lifespan. Either way, expect 10+ years of cooking. Look after it and it'll go longer.

Every Somerset Grill Co grill comes with a 10 year warranty. Built to last decades.

Is UK delivery free?

Yes. Delivery is free to UK mainland, Scottish Islands, and Northern Ireland, and included in all prices shown. For Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, we add a £85 surcharge.

How long does UK delivery take?

Gunmetal Grills are usually in stock, so delivery is 2–3 working days. When on pre-order, estimated delivery times are shown on the product page. Need next-day or Saturday delivery? Get in touch and we'll arrange it.

Once dispatched, you'll get a tracking email so you can follow your grill's progress. We'll also contact you to arrange a delivery day that suits you.

How does delivery work?

Because of the size and weight (65kg+), each grill is delivered fully assembled on a standard pallet by specialist courier. The courier will unload by tail-lift to the kerbside or entrance of your property, getting as close as possible to where you need it. On gravel drives the lorry will get as close as it can.

Deliveries run Monday–Friday, 9am–6pm. Saturday deliveries available on request.

All grills with Woodstore stands have heavy-duty castor wheels, so they're easy to move into place. The standalone Asado takes two people to carry. The Grande takes four.
