Ñuke Barbecue Puma

Instead of building a fire directly under your food, you burn wood or charcoal in the side brazier. Once the fuel breaks down into hot embers, you rake them underneath the cooking grate, which provides a cleaner, more consistent heat source that is easier to manage throughout a long cook.

Yes, the Puma is designed for outdoor use, but because it is an open-fire grill, you should always place it on a non-combustible surface like stone, concrete, or a heat-resistant grill mat to protect your deck from stray embers or heat transfer.

The V-shaped channels are designed to catch fat and juices as they render from the meat, directing them away from the fire and into a collection tray. This significantly reduces flare-ups and prevents the bitter, acrid taste of burnt fat from affecting your food.

Not at all. The signature control wheel is engineered for smooth operation, allowing you to raise or lower the grate with one hand. This lets you quickly adjust the distance between your food and the embers to sear, roast, or keep items warm without needing to move the coals themselves.

The plancha is designed to sit on top of the grill grates, providing a solid, flat surface for cooking items like smash burgers, eggs, or vegetables that would otherwise fall through the bars. You can use it alongside the open grates to cook different types of food simultaneously.

While the materials are durable, you should clean the grates after every use while they are still warm. Because it is an open-fire grill, you will also need to regularly clear ash from the firebox and wipe down the exterior to prevent surface rust and maintain the finish.
