Most people treat a barbecue like a kitchen appliance. The Pedro has other ideas. It's a grill, a smoker, and a focal point, the kind of thing people gather around before the food is even ready.
This set includes two separate products that work together: the Barbecook Pedro Asado barbecue and the Barbecook Buddy Workstation. They are designed to sit side by side to create a practical outdoor cooking setup. The grill handles the fire and cooking, while the workstation provides a dedicated space for preparation, plating, tools, and ingredients.
They align cleanly beside each other but are not physically connected, allowing you to position them exactly where you want in your outdoor space. The two pieces will also arrive in separate boxes, ready to be placed together to form a cohesive cooking station.
That copper-toned corten steel body develops its patina the same way cast iron develops its seasoning: through use, weather, and time. It doesn't fight the outdoors. It belongs there.
Height is everything
The Pedro's central trick is deceptively simple: a crank handle raises and lowers the stainless steel parrilla grate above the embers. Wind it down close to the coals and you've got searing heat for a proper crust. Wind it up and the heat becomes gentle, patient, the kind that takes a thick cut of beef somewhere interesting over the course of an hour. No fiddling with vents or guessing. The distance does the work.
The V-shaped grates channel fat away from the fire rather than letting it flare, which keeps the flavour clean and the cook in control. A pull-out ember drawer lets you rake the coals or add fuel mid-session without dismantling the whole setup.
Alongside the grill, the Buddy workstation provides the practical side of outdoor cooking. Its corten steel surface gives you space to prepare ingredients, rest cooked food, or keep tools and seasonings close at hand while you cook. Open shelving below offers storage for fuel, cookware, or serving items, keeping everything organised during longer grilling sessions.
It handles more than steak
Ribs smoked slowly over beech or oak. Whole fish. Vegetables buried directly in the embers and pulled out when they're yielding and sweet. An optional plancha plate for anything too small or delicate for a grate. The Pedro doesn't have a speciality, it just responds well to whoever's cooking it.
With the workstation placed beside the grill, ingredients can be prepped, rested, and served without leaving the cooking area. The two units together create a simple but effective outdoor kitchen layout while still remaining two independent pieces of equipment.
Built to stay outside
Corten steel was originally developed for structural engineering. The oxidised surface that forms on both the Pedro grill and the Buddy workstation isn't corrosion. It's the material doing what it's designed to do, creating a barrier that protects the steel underneath.
The stainless cooking surfaces are straightforward to clean, the ash drawer pulls out cleanly, and the workstation shelving provides proper storage for wood, charcoal, and tools so the whole setup can stay outside and remain ready to use.
Two pieces, one outdoor cooking setup
This product includes two separate corten steel units:
• The Pedro Asado barbecue for live fire cooking
• The Buddy workstation for preparation, storage, and support
They are designed to sit side by side and align visually, creating a complete cooking station without being permanently attached. Because they are separate products, they are delivered in two boxes and positioned independently once installed.
Part of something bigger
The Pedro sits within Barbecook's Nestor modular system, pairing with additional preparation and serving units if you want to build a full outdoor kitchen over time. The Pedro grill and Buddy workstation together already create a balanced starting point, combining live fire cooking with a practical preparation surface.
