"Bola" (short for Bolas or
Boleadoras) was a type of throwing weapon most famously used by the Gauchos in the Pampas region of South America in the early 1800s. The Gauchos were skilled horseman, reputed to be brave, nomadic, and unruly. Their diets consisted of mainly beef which they cooked over an open fire. "Gaucho grills" or "Santa Maria Grills" are now commercialized and are designed to allow the user to manually adjust cooking temperate by raising and lowering the grill grate. It's a unique grilling style that can get truly addicting!

The Bola Grill was designed & engineered to create a seamless connection between outdoor cooking and hosting. Built not only to deliver incredibly delicious food, the grill was also made for guests to experience, enjoy, and be a part of the phenomenal process leading up to the meal. Founded by a BBQ and over-the-fire cooking enthusiast who wanted to find a better way to bring guests closer to the action, the Bola Grill was envisioned to make over-the-fire cooking easier, safer, and more accessible.
