FAQs
The system can be configured with either a right-side elevation or front elevation layout, allowing flexibility in design, accessibility, and workflow requirements. Both configurations provide the same functionality while adapting to different installation preferences and operational needs. The front elevation system features an internal locking mechanism that automatically holds the grate position whenever wheel rotation stops, providing precise control and added convenience. The right-side elevation system, on the other hand, utilizes a manual locking system, allowing the operator to secure the grate at the desired height as needed.
The drain system helps water flow out of the grill when needed, preventing moisture from accumulating inside the firebox and around the firebricks. By allowing proper drainage, it reduces the risk of mold, mildew, and unwanted buildup that can develop when water is trapped for extended periods. This feature helps keep the interior cleaner, protects the integrity of the firebricks, and contributes to the long-term durability and performance of the grill, especially in outdoor environments exposed to rain, humidity, or frequent cleaning.
304 stainless steel is generally known for its corrosion resistance, but it is not entirely immune to rust. Exposure to certain conditions can still lead to rusting. Factors that may contribute to rust on 304 stainless steel include:
Chloride exposure: Salt and other chlorides may lead to pitting corrosion, especially in coastal or marine environments.
Harsh environments: Exposure to harsh chemicals, acids, or extreme environmental conditions may affect the material.
Scratches and surface damage: Scratches may expose the surface to corrosive elements.
Care Recommendations for 304 Stainless Steel
Clean periodically using mild detergents and a soft cloth or sponge.
Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or acids, and clean the surface promptly if contact occurs.
Minimize chloride exposure, especially in coastal areas, by rinsing off salt deposits regularly.
When appropriate, use protective coatings suitable for stainless steel.
If rust becomes visible, possible removal methods include:
Mechanical cleaning using a nylon brush, abrasive pad, or sandpaper, always following the stainless steel grain.
Chemical cleaning using mild acids such as citric acid or vinegar, followed by thorough rinsing.
Commercial stainless steel cleaners intended for rust removal.
After rust removal, the stainless steel surface should be cleaned and passivated to help restore corrosion resistance. For all methods above, always consult a professional or qualified personnel to avoid damaging the product.

This grill does it all! Comes with hangers and a griddle. You can easily remove the grates for skewers. Short cooks lit with a chimney, long cooks sustained by the firebox. Slow cooking rolled up, fast cooking dropped down to the coals.

Second to none. I spent months researching and discussing this product wit the team at Tagwood. No question was too small or insignificant for me to call. The team took great care of me. The prodcut itself could not be better built. I live in a 300 year old house and I believe the Tagwood will be standing with the ho0use for another 300 years, it is that well built. I cant say enough about this product. It is amazing, along with the team and support that has come with the product.

Sales team in Florida was excellent and discussed my 'best value' package pricing that included the counter top warmer.
Shipping was prompt and the logistic company was in constant communication as the grill went cross-country.
Packaging was top-notch with the unit tie-strapped in place and all sides properly protected with foam as a precaution.
The unit shows excellent workmanship from the weldments to the joint seams. This grill is certain to take center stage at my future grilling events.
