Description

Tuscany Heavy-duty Charcoal Barbecue

Heavy-duty handcrafted large size wood-fired barbecue

This model is equipped with a wide range of accessories which includes: one set of 2 different stainless steel grids (one suitable for delicate foods, such as fish, the other one for meat), a large skewer to cook large cuts of meat and 4 other skewers for smaller pieces.

Cooking surface: 114 x 65 cm divided into two areas

These BBQ models come with a "heavy-duty structure” entirely built with 2.0 mm thick steel sheets. This makes them extremely resistant to the wear and tear action of fire over the years.

The wood combustion chamber is 12 mm thick.

The BBQ structure (unlike the main handicraft productions) is covered in a special high-temperature paint, which guarantees higher resistance than normal (except for the areas directly affected by the fire)

Fuel type:
- wood
- charcoal

In fact, as an alternative to wood, it can also be fuelled simply with coal, thus being ready for cooking in just 4 minutes.

The first models, built in 1987, are still in use today...

Cruccolini Tuscany Maxi - Wood and charcoal barbecue

Wood combustion chamber

Sturdy 12 mm thick wood combustion chamber

The front protection plate made of sturdy perforated sheet metal allows:
- the passage of heat for cooking with the skewers placed horizontally
- the passage of heat for cooking with the spit roaster accessory, to be purchased separately - perfect oxygenation of the flame, facilitating combustion
- it does not allow combustion residues, such as ash, charcoal, etc., to pass through and lay on the food being cooked.

This model also mounts three additional side protective panels that offer the following advantages:

- retains heat at a lower temperature than the adjacent inner sheet which is directly in contact with fire
- greater durability of the paint used on these panels as they are external and far from the flame

Cooking surface

The Tuscany model houses two different cooking grids in stainless steel:

- Traditional stainless steel rod grill

- Cooking grid with sauce recovery system made of stainless steel grooves

The total cooking surface measures 114 x 65 cm

The cooking grids can be adjusted on 2 heights

In addition to the grids, the BBQ features 2 pairs of skewers in stainless steel for spit cooking close to the flame and a large skewer for preparing large cuts of meat.

Grease recovery system (thanks to the particular sloping shape of the cooking surface, fats and oils drain directly into the dedicated ladle without falling on the hot coals)
