Take control of the fire, the Argentine way. This BBQ tool set brings precision, safety, and tradition together—so every asado feels just right, wherever you are.

In Argentina, the fire is where everything begins. Before the meat hits the grill, there’s a ritual—building the embers, adjusting the heat, and creating the perfect base for a great asado.

The BBQ Kit Large Shovel and Poker by The Argentino is designed to give you that control. Crafted from black steel with a heat-resistant coating (up to 600°C) and finished with varnished wooden handles, this set combines durability with comfort. The extended length of each tool allows you to manage firewood, charcoal, and embers safely, keeping your hands at a comfortable distance from intense heat.

The XL version (85 cm) is specially designed for grills deeper than 50 cm, large fire pits, and anyone who prefers greater reach while managing the fire. Use the poker to pull embers toward the shovel for quick and efficient ember management, or use each tool independently depending on the stage of your fire.

For those who understand that great grilling starts long before the meat reaches the grate, this is more than a set of tools—it's an essential part of the Argentine asado tradition.
