Description

The StarBBQ 24" Smokeless Fire Pit Base with Santa Maria Rim and Raised Griddle (STARBBQ-24FPBS-SMR-RGR-EXG) is a modular cooking setup for backyard grilling, patio gatherings and custom outdoor kitchens. Patented airflow technology reduces smoke from the wood or charcoal fire.

The Santa Maria rim has a hand crank that raises and lowers the cooking surface, which is how you control the heat. The raised solid steel griddle gives you a flat top for searing and other cooking, and the included STARBBQ-EXGRATE is for direct grilling over the flames. The base also accepts additional rims and accessories.

The 24" diameter base is 304 stainless steel with a heat-resistant powder coating. The set weighs about 75 lbs and works standalone or in a built-in countertop.

Absolutely Love This Fire Pit!

This StarBBQ 24" fire pit is a game-changer for our backyard. The Santa Maria rim is perfect for grilling and the raised griddle is super handy for breakfast or searing. It really is smokeless, which is a huge plus for enjoying evenings without getting smoked out.

Will E.★★★★☆June 26, 2011
Great Versatility, Minor Griddle Quibble

The versatility of this unit is fantastic – we've grilled, seared, and just enjoyed a fire. The 24-inch size is just right for our patio. My only small complaint is that the raised griddle can be a little tricky to clean thoroughly after some greasy cooks, but overall, it's a solid piece of equipment.

Ultimate Outdoor Cooking Hub Indeed!

Sunstone really delivered with this StarBBQ. From the robust construction to the thoughtful design of the Santa Maria rim, every detail screams quality. We've cooked everything from steaks to pancakes on this, and the results are consistently amazing. It's a true centerpiece for our outdoor kitchen.

Shelby★★★★★April 25, 2021
Fantastic for Family Gatherings

This fire pit with the griddle attachment has made our weekend cookouts so much easier and more fun. The smokeless feature is no joke – we can actually sit around it without our eyes watering. It's a solid, well-built unit that feels like it will last for years.

Clay S.★★★★☆April 13, 2017
Solid Build, Pricey but Worth It

As a contractor, I appreciate the heavy-duty construction of this Sunstone StarBBQ. It was straightforward to set up and the materials feel premium. While the price point is a bit high, the performance and durability of the 24-inch unit justify the investment for a serious outdoor cooking setup.

Installation for the STARBBQ-24FPBS-SMR-RGR-EXG is straightforward for anyone with basic DIY skills.

Q
What's the best way to clean the griddle and fire pit after I've used the STARBBQ-24FPBS-SMR-RGR-EXG for cooking?Asked by Sunstone Support Team
A
For the Raised Griddle, allow it to cool slightly, then scrape off any food residue with a grill brush or scraper and wipe it down with a damp cloth. For the fire pit base, once completely cool, simply empty the ash tray. The stainless steel surfaces can be wiped with a mild soap and water solution, followed by a rinse and dry, to maintain their shine.
