The Videl Brasa II is the Santa Maria style grill on this page, an Argentinian style grill built for cooking over wood or charcoal. It suits you if you enjoy tending coals and cooking Argentine asado rather than turning a gas knob. The wood-fired grill is built in Ontario, California from heavy stainless steel. Videl, which the maker calls Videl USA, is the outdoor kitchen brand of The Outdoor Plus.


How the Videl Brasa cooks

Turn the crank wheel to raise or lower the grate over the deep firebox, giving you adjustable grate height. Lower it for searing steak, or lift it for gentler heat as you cook. The rotisserie turns a whole chicken or a leg of lamb over the fire. You do not need a gas line, and only the rotisserie motor plugs in.

You have about 838 square inches of cooking space for a gathering. The side table folds out for prep and down for storage, with more storage below. The grill stands on its own wheels, like the options on our freestanding grills page. To compare other grills that burn wood or charcoal, browse our charcoal grills collection.

Brasa or a gas grill

Choose the Brasa if you want smoke from the fire and hands-on heat control. A gas grill suits you if you prefer adjusting each burner with a knob. Compare the Gran Fuego and Commercial on the built-in gas grills page. For a gas cooking setup with burners, a food warmer or an island around a Gran Fuego, explore the Fuego family.

Your cooking questions

How is a Santa Maria grill different from a gas grill?

A gas grill sets heat with a knob. The Brasa burns wood or charcoal in a deep firebox, adding smoke to the food. Its crank wheel moves the grate over the coals, lower for searing and higher for gentler cooking.

Does the Videl Brasa burn wood or charcoal?

You can use either wood or charcoal. Build a wood fire for the most smoke, or start with charcoal. The deep firebox holds a bed of coals for a whole cook, and this is the maker's only grill on our store that does not run on gas.

Can I roast a whole chicken on it?

Yes, the rotisserie slowly turns a whole chicken or leg of lamb over the fire. Its motor is the only part that plugs into an outlet. The grate below on the Videl Brasa gives you about 838 square inches for other food.
