Yoder Smokers Releases the El Dorado Built-In Santa Maria Style Grill

Yoder Smokers has just released a centerpiece for any outdoor kitchen build. The El Dorado is a Santa Maria style grill that has the build quality to match its eye-catching looks.

Companies are releasing new options for outdoor kitchens that branch away from traditional gas grill setups. The El Dorado is the latest of this trend.

Retailing for $5,095 (check price) in the 36 inch model, the El Dorado has all the build features that put Yoder on the map. That includes being made in the USA with lots of thick steel.

Features and Specs

  • Two size options with a 36″ and a 42″ model
  • Can be fueled with charcoal, wood chunks or wood splits
  • V-Channel cooking grates that divert grease away from the fire
  • Cantilever arms that provide full access to the cooking area
  • Lots of space for multiple cooking zones

Heat Retention and Control

The El Dorado have some key features that make it great for heat retention. The fire box is made from 10 gauge steel and the inside of it is tiled with fire bricks to hold temperatures.

To add to that, there’s a three inch air gap between the steel in the fire box and a 12 gauge steel outer shell. This has two functions, it helps retain heat in the fire box, and it also keeps the outside of the grill cooler.

All that heat retention helps keep a fire going and makes it easier to maintain temperature. That’s what you want, especially if you’re if you have the cooking grate raised for slow cooking.
