Bene Casa Caja Asadora Large Pit Barbecue Portable Pig Roaster

I had my doubts ordering this because of a LOT of negative reviews. But am glad I did end up buying this as this has got to be one of the best pig roasts I’ve done all by myself. Pros: • clean up will NOT be an issue • easy to use / just read the instructions • easy to set up • product comes out perfect if I follow the suggested rules • mine wasn’t cheaply made and should last a long time Cons: • the charcoal grate broke/came loose towards the end while shaking off the excess ash

Lo mejor que e comprado por un buen precio

My friends and I wanted to have a pig roast, after much research on the internet, and deciding that I didn't want a hole in my yard, and with my dogs a spit wasn't a good idea, and not having the greenery here in AZ, for Hawaiin style, I found the Casa Asadora. OMG.....this is the greatest thing since peanut butter! It arrived within a week, was easy to assemble, and the quality was great. The 70# pig was fully cooked in less than 4 hours! I have never had pork as great as this! I would suggest that everyone have one.....I plan on using it for many meals and parties this summer....I'm sure my gas grill will get a break. I am even thinking about ordering some for Christmas presents! What a great surprise, I can also see it as a great gift for house warmings, weddings, or birthdays.....JUST BUY ONE.....YOU WILL LOVE IT!

I am very disappointed with the quality of the product. There was no evidence of external damage to the shipping boxes but there was damage to the product including; dented and warped metal edges, broken corner welds on the pans and a hole in one of the flat metal sheets. Also, the wood parts like the legs and frame are raw wood. I will seal it with some marine varnish so it doesn't soak up rain or the water I will use to clean it. I am waiting for a response from the provider. They should be ashamed, especially the inspector that put his sticker on the product to say it meets the quality standards. No love for this product at this point. Follow up. Contacted the supplier. Matt the President addressed the problem directly. Had replacement parts within a few days. Marked improvement in the quality of the replacement parts. Looking forward to the roast. 5 Stars for addressing the problem. So, 1 for quality on arrival, 5 for service after the sale. Averaged out to a 3. Performance- Spectacular! This product delivered right on the money! I did a 60 pound dressed pig and it was at 187 within 4hrs 15 minutes. See the finished product pictured. Guests were amazed about how the meat tasted and asked a lot of questions about the difficulty of making it. I wanted to tell them how hard it was to do but couldn't in clear conscience. It was easy. Viva La Bene Casa Caja Asadora!

Really nice size and well build.

Easy to put together (if I can do it anyone can) with easy to follow instructions, for the most part. This takes up a lot of room, so unless you're going to deep pit a lot, or have lots of room at your house, this may not be the way to go. It sits low, so remember that if you have trouble bending down to pick up heavier objects. We roasted a small, thin pig and it only took a couple of hours. Obviously the fatter the pig the longer it should take. If you're going to have a lot of people over this is a good way to prepare a lot of protein.

A really good way to roast a whole pig. The charcoal rack broke during our first use. Customer service sent a new part promptly. We cooked an 84 lb. pig in it. I know they indicate that it only takes 4-5 hours to cook the whole hog, but we found the hams/shoulders need more time to be pulled apart easily. Which is fine. A few more hours is not a big deal given the fact that all you have to do is put the pig in the box and throw some charcoal on top every hour. No flare-ups. No need to constantly monitor temperature. Easy clean up (line the box with foil).
