I can’t for the life of me find the name of this style. I’ve been to some houses that have a permanent one fixed to the ground while others are more portable.

Trying to find out if I could buy or build it.

    Mangal. Also make sure you get the fat skewers or your koobideh/kufta kebabs won’t stick right.

    If you go on Amazon and search – mangal grill you will find a bunch of options. It’s popular in Central Asia, eastern and central Europe

    I like this kind of grill too. I bought one off Etsy from timeless, steel or something, but it has its quirks for sure. And I am reserving my judgment on it until I do some modifications, but I just want to say I think the char griller wrangler could be potentially used as this kind of grill

    Mangal. Asian style are a bit too shallow. East european are much deeper, and imo mich easier to use.

    Mangal! Add a west coast plancha and you could open a restaurant!

    Plancha is a rather large disc for making the equivalent of seafood rice and beans with no beans and more seafood. B

    The Asian style ones tend to be labelled as yakitori grills, satay grills, or just skewer grills. Traditional Japanese clay models are called konro, and any style of them are commonly old “hibachi” in the west.

    Either type is fairly easy to build especially the metal ones.

    It’s a steel box with some vent holes on any sort of stand. Thick walls or a double wall are common to keep heat in.

    The Middle Eastern/Eastern European style is deeper. As others have said.

    The Asian style ones are shallower. But the sliding style vents they use can be easier to control. And they often (especially earthen ware ones) are meant to work with a lot of radiant heat from thermal mass. So they use a fairly small fire very close to to the food.

    In ether case there’s often a fire grate of some sort to life the five above the floor of the box, let breath a bit. But no always.

    A mesh grill net goes over the top to hold smaller and no skewered items. And you take that off to rest long skewers over the edges as seen in the photo.
