Meadow Creek SM48 Santa Maria Grill

Inspired by the 150-year barbecue tradition of California’s Santa Maria Valley, this classic grill will grab attention at any cookout. Meadow Creek’s spin on the Santa Maria style centers on the stainless steel crank wheel and cable system that raises and lowers the grate over the fire. The mechanism is big and easy to handle, cranking up with a satisfying clicking sound and locking automatically when released. The crank height adjustment is the signature feature of Santa Maria grills, since it lets you switch instantly from searing to slow cooking, without moving your coals and meat around. But our Santa Maria still gives you total access to your coals with a hinged front panel that swings down to expose the charcoal tray and just as quickly locks closed again. The standard 22×45-inch welded grate holds enough barbecue for a crowd, and like all our grates, it’s made of stainless steel so you can focus on cooking, not fighting rust. Better yet, it’s modular: if the basic grate bores you, you can purchase three extra grate styles and swap them instantly into the Santa Maria for endless cooking variations.Fry up a big outdoor breakfast on the griddle, take control of grilling the little items with a seafood basket, or brown your  chicken thighs just right on both sides with the legendary rotating sandwich grates. Better yet, each of those upgrades comes in full and half-width versions so you can use two at the same time if you want. All-in-all this might turn out to be the most versatile grill you’ve ever used. Roll your Santa Maria right to where you need it with the 13-inch turf tires, whether your work area is concrete or grass.
