A 12" (30 cm) black iron barbecue chapa built for outdoor cooking over open flames. Inspired by the Argentinian Gauchos, this portable grid is made for live-fire cooking, delivering authentic smoky flavour and seared griddle lines to your food.
A chapa is a traditional flat iron griddle, rooted in Argentinian cooking. Whether grid or plate, the chapa is designed for open-fire use — tough, versatile, and communal. It turns any flame into a feast.
Pre-seasoned with natural flax oil, this barbecue chapa resists corrosion and develops a natural non-stick finish over time. Its detachable legs make it easy to assemble, transport, and store, while the heavy-duty black iron build ensures strength and durability at high heat.
