The complete fire cook’s setup — a half-and-half split chapa paired with a fire table. Two semi-circular plates form a 24" (60 cm) outdoor cooking surface: one solid griddle for eggs, pancakes, and small dishes, and one open barbecue grid for authentic char grilled flavour. The included fire table lifts the chapa 23 cm (9") off the ground, protecting lawns and providing a stable, elemental stage for cooking over flames.
A chapa is a traditional flat iron griddle, rooted in Argentinian Gaucho cooking. Designed for use directly over fire or charcoal, it delivers searing heat for meat, vegetables, breads, and more. Tough, versatile, and communal — the chapa turns any flame into a feast.
With its split design, you can sear on one half while keeping food warm or cooking differently on the other. Each side can be moved aside to refuel the fire beneath. Pre-seasoned with natural flax oil, built from thick black iron, and finished with brass fittings, this is a fire system made for decades of cooking.
