Hancock Grills Sterling 40 Wood & Charcoal Grill - STR-40-MDL

Our take on the Sterling 40 Wood & Charcoal Grill

The Sterling 40 from Hancock Grills is a wood and charcoal grill with a half-inch high carbon steel cook top, so it works as both a cooking surface and a fire feature. A removable center grate lets you sear food over the flames or open the fire up. The base includes fuel storage, and the body is American-made pre-weathered corten steel designed to stay outside year-round and develop a natural patina.

It suits anyone wanting a social centerpiece that can also cook for a group. Before buying, compare the listed 1,600-inch cooking surface and overall footprint with your space, and remember it burns only wood or charcoal, so you will be managing a live fire.
