Mobile Argentine Grill on Heavy-Duty Casters
Base Unit #4326
Commercial Asado Spec | V-Grate Grease Management | 100% Made in Texas | Free Continental U.S. Shipping*
The Mobile Platform for Authentic Asado
The NorCal Ovenworks Base Unit #4326 is not a standard BBQ; it is a mobile culinary instrument engineered for the specific demands of Argentine-style cooking. Whether you are a professional chef managing a fluid workspace or a serious enthusiast who demands commercial-grade mobility, this unit delivers precise ember management and heat control on a rugged, caster-mounted chassis.
Hand-fabricated in Texas, the #4326 features a heavy-gauge steel firebox and our signature variable-height grate system, allowing you to manipulate thermal distance with micrometer-like precision.
STANDARD ISSUE: The "Asado" Maintenance Kit
High-Value Tooling Included.
Proper operation of an Argentine grill requires specific tools. We do not sell these as "extras"; we include them as standard equipment. Every #4326 ships with a 3-Piece Heavy-Duty Tool Set matching your grill's material construction.

The Kit Loadout:
-
The Shovel: For rapid ash removal and ember transfer.

-
The V-Grate Cleaner: A custom-profiled tool designed to scour the V-channels, ensuring sanitary grease flow.
Fabrication Specifications
1. Argentine V-Grate Technology (Standard)
The #4326 comes equipped with our Inverted V-Grate Surface. Unlike round rods that allow grease to drip directly onto the coals (causing acrid smoke and flare-ups), our V-channels capture rendering fats and funnel them into a detachable Drip Pan.
-
Result: A cleaner fire, reduced flare-ups, and the ability to baste meats in their own rendered juices.
-
(Option: Round Rod Grates available upon request for traditional open-fire searing).
2. Infinite Flywheel Elevation
Control the sear. The side-mounted flywheel mechanism allows for smooth, independent vertical adjustment of the grilling surface. Raise the grate to slow-roast large cuts (Asado style) or lower it flush with the firebox for high-heat searing.
3. Fully Welded Firebox Architecture
-
Depth: 12" Standard Depth.
-
Construction: 3/16" Heavy-Gauge Steel. Full seam welds ensure structural rigidity and thermal retention.
-
Front Configuration:
-
Open Front (Standard): Allows for easy raking of coals and direct access to the fire bed.
-
Closed Front (Optional): maximizes wind protection and heat containment.
-
4. Mobile Industrial Frame:
The firebox is mounted on a reinforced steel frame with four Heavy-Duty Locking Casters. This ensures the unit can be easily repositioned for event catering, patio cleaning, or wind management.
Material Configurations

A36 Black Steel: 3/16" thick steel body. Rugged, industrial aesthetic. Includes Stainless Steel grilling surface.
