June 17,2024

Take paella back to its Spanish roots and prepare over an open fire. Our paella pan and rig integrate the pan onto our fire pit grill, allowing you to raise and lower the pan to adjust the heat for perfect paella..
Paella, Spain's most iconic dish, is a fiesta in a pan! Like our Fire Kettles, the culture around Paella is gathering with friends and family (Read More Here). From its roots in coastal Valencia, this rice dish was originally cooked over open fire to infuse a smoky flavor. In fact, open fire is to paella what a wood-burning oven is to pizza! Developed in collaboration with Chef Katie Button, the Rig integrates the paella pan onto our Grill providing the ultimate in heat management, which is crucial to the perfect paella and its signature socarrat - the caramelized crust of rice on the bottom. The ratchet system gives you ultimate control over the heat, you can easily control the heat and how fast the paella is cooking. And with the perfectly designed spoon -- it is an open fire paella dream! -- Chef Katie Button Read Chef Button's recipe for Sea Island Forge Arroz and her interview on the Hot Seat. The Rig is also perfect for any type of large format sauté. Shrimp scampi, stir fry, fajitas use your imagination!

Kettle Leveling Kit - brackets keep bowl level and paella pan steady (3 brackets for 30-Gallon Kettle; 4 brackets for 50-Gallon Kettle) Chef Katie Button is the owner of two Spanish restaurants, Cúrate Tapas Bar and La Bodega by Cúrate in Asheville, NC.
