The Story
Tagwood BBQ is the Buenos Aires fabricator that turned Argentine-style open-fire grilling into a residential category in the US. Every grill is hand-welded in 304 stainless with the V-grate pattern that drains fat away from the fire + a crank-wheel height adjuster for direct heat control.
The lineup runs from a modest 18" island insert (BBQ18SS) up to the flagship 360° open-fire TOWER (BBQ27SS) — a $30,000, 304-stainless steel showpiece with a rotating cooking spit over an open hardwood fire. Also carries Santa Maria tri-tip rigs, pizza stones, insulated smoke hoods, and the full line of leather aprons + stainless cutlery.
Lead times run 3-4 weeks for built-ins, 4-6 for freestanding + the TOWER. Tagwood ships from a Miami distribution facility — fast for a brand that's handmade overseas.

304 stainless, Argentine-made
Hand-welded in Buenos Aires. Not stamped sheet metal — real 304 stainless fabrication.
02
V-grate fat drainage
V-shaped grate drains fat away from the fire, prevents flare-ups + reduces carcinogens on the meat.
03
Crank-wheel heat control
Raise + lower the cooking surface over an open hardwood fire. Infrared sear or low-and-slow smoke, same rig.
04
Full accessory ecosystem
Covers, Santa Maria accessories, pizza stones, smoke hoods, leather aprons, premium knives — all first-party.
Questions
Frequently Asked About Tagwood BBQ
What makes Argentine-style open-fire grilling different from a gas grill?
Argentine grills use real hardwood or charcoal in an open firebox, with the cooking grate raised + lowered by crank wheel to control heat (no burner knobs). The V-grate drains fat away so flare-ups don't happen. The result: real wood-fired flavor, Santa Maria tri-tip, pizza oven heat (700°F+), and the theater of cooking over a live flame.
Which Tagwood model should I start with?
The BBQ18SS or BBQ18SI (built-in) at ~$3,000 is the volume pick for a residential patio. 18-inch cook surface, V-grate, crank-wheel height adjuster, 304 stainless. The BBQ28SS (28") is the step-up for serious entertainers. The flagship 360° TOWER at $30k is a Mendoza-restaurant-grade showpiece.
Does the TOWER really do $30,000?
Yes — the BBQ27SS 360° Open-Fire TOWER is a 10-foot stainless pedestal grill with a rotating-spit crown. It's built for commercial-tier Argentine churrasco service: whole lambs, 20+ steaks per cook, open-fire theater. Priced for restaurants + ultra-premium residential builds.
Can I use charcoal AND wood?
Yes — Argentine tradition is 100% hardwood (quebracho, oak), but Tagwood grills work equally well with lump charcoal or a hardwood/charcoal mix. The crank-wheel height control gives you temp control regardless of fuel.
What about shipping + lead time?
In-stock built-ins ship in 3-4 weeks from the Miami distribution hub. The TOWER + larger freestanding models (BBQ28SS, BBQ27SS) run 4-6 weeks because they're hand-built in Argentina + shipped against open orders.
