TRIO Ø98 Fire Pit Plancha Grill | Corten Steel & Black Fire Pit

The TRIO Ø98 cm has been designed for those who wish to enjoy a true outdoor kitchen around the fire. Combining the functions of a fire pit, plancha, and barbecue, it allows for cooking large quantities of food while creating a warm space where meal preparation becomes a moment of sharing.

With its large cooking surface of 98 cm in diameter, it meets the needs of individuals hosting family and friends as well as the requirements of professionals in catering, events, or catering services.

A GENEROUS AND VERSATILE COOKING SURFACE

Its 10 mm thick food-grade steel plate offers significant thermal inertia, allowing for searing, grilling, roasting, or keeping food warm simultaneously. The different natural temperature zones of the plancha enable precise cooking of meats, fish, vegetables, or fruits. Depending on the type of preparation and the organisation of the service, the TRIO Ø98 can accommodate several dozen guests during the same meal.

AN AIR-FLOW SYSTEM FOR OPTIMISED COMBUSTION

The firebox incorporates an exclusive air circulation system that improves the oxygen supply to the fire. This design promotes faster ignition, limits smoke production during startup, and enhances the energy efficiency of the logs. Heat is thus better distributed across the entire cooking plate to provide more comfort and consistency during cooking.

A DESIGN THOUGHT OUT IN EVERY DETAIL

The plancha is inclined from its manufacture to promote the natural drainage of fats towards the fire without resorting to visible chutes or reservoirs. The absence of an outer edge facilitates the movement of food, simplifies daily maintenance, and enhances the overall aesthetics of the product. The small space between the fire and the plate also helps to limit deposits and reinforces the perceived quality of the whole.

WINNER OF THE IF DESIGN AWARD

The design of the TRIO has been awarded the iF Design Award, an international distinction recognising the most innovative products in terms of design, ergonomics, and user experience.
This recognition confirms the ambition of the project: to offer a plancha brazier that is both high-performing and refined.

TWO FINISHES ADAPTED TO YOUR ENVIRONMENT

CORTEN STEEL NATURAL

Corten steel develops a characteristic protective patina that gives it excellent resistance to the elements and an authentic appearance particularly sought after in contemporary outdoor settings.

BLACK THERMAL-COATED STEEL

The black version brings a modern and elegant aesthetic. The support is made of thermally coated galvanised steel to improve its resistance to corrosion and ensure excellent durability over time.

Note regarding the black finish: the high-temperature powder coating offers excellent protection and a remarkable aesthetic finish. However, like any painted finish exposed to the elements, UV rays, impacts, and repeated handling, it remains more sensitive to scratches and visual wear than natural Corten steel.

To sustainably preserve its original appearance, especially outdoors, it is strongly recommended to use a long protective cover when the fire pit is not in use. This protection limits exposure to the elements, UV rays, atmospheric deposits, and extends the lifespan of the finish.

For environments heavily exposed to sea air, Corten steel remains the most suitable solution.

DESIGNED FOR INDIVIDUALS AND PROFESSIONALS

The TRIO Ø98 is used in both private gardens and by restaurants, estates, hotels, chefs, and caterers. Its tool-free assembly allows for quick installation while its robust design supports intensive use throughout the year.

The three elements simply stack on top of each other without screws or bolts. This simplicity is particularly appreciated during frequent moves to reception or event locations.

A SCALABLE OUTDOOR COOKING SOLUTION

The TRIO can be complemented by numerous accessories that expand culinary possibilities: barbecue grills, lids, serving tables, shelves, wheels, protective covers, and equipment dedicated to outdoor cooking.

This modularity accompanies the evolution of your needs and gradually transforms your fire pit into a true outdoor cooking centre.

The TRIO is available in several models, allowing you to choose the height, diameter, and finish that best suit your needs. You can even create your own outdoor kitchen with modular furniture. The TRIO82 model is compact and requires slightly less space than the TRIO98. It is particularly popular for smaller outdoor areas. The choice between an 82 cm or 98 cm diameter fire pit depends on how you intend to use it and the available space. Here are a few things to consider: Space size: If you have a large outdoor space, a 98cm fire pit might be more suitable. It will be larger and offer better heat distribution. For a smaller space, an 82cm model might be more appropriate to avoid clutter. Number of people: In terms of cooking capacity, it all depends on what you're cooking and your cooking skills. If you want to gather around the fire pit with several people, the 82cm model can accommodate 6-8 people, while the 98cm model can accommodate 10-12 people. Heat output: A larger fire pit, like the 98cm model, will generally give off more heat, which can be useful if you want to heat a larger area. Wood or charcoal consumption: A larger fire pit will require more fuel to operate optimally. If you prefer more moderate consumption, a smaller fire pit might be better. Log size: the 82 and 98 diameters both allow the use of standard size logs of 30cm or 50cm. If you have a large space and plan to host groups of several people, a 98cm model would probably be more suitable. If you're looking for something more compact or fuel-efficient, opt for an 82cm model.

Quick and easy steps for maintaining and extending the life of your plancha grill: The TRIO plancha is quick to clean: while the fire is still lit, scrape off food residue with the professional spatula and then push it into the center of the firebox so that it is burned off by the heat. To preserve your plancha for many years, season it regularly by applying vegetable oil or beeswax before and after each use to prevent corrosion. No ash drawer for greater longevity! Ashes are removed with a shovel or an ash vacuum. Due to the inconvenience they cause, we have eliminated the need for an ash drawer. Don't worry about rain! Water drains naturally through the double wall, following the same path as rising air.

A fire pit with a griddle combines the advantages of a traditional fire pit with those of a griddle cooking surface, making it a versatile piece of outdoor equipment. Dual function: heat and cooking Outdoor heating: Like any fire pit, it provides a source of heat outdoors, creating a warm atmosphere around the fire. Cooking: you can prepare meals outdoors on the plancha. Healthy and controlled cooking: plancha cooking is known to be healthier than traditional barbecuing, as it requires little oil and reduces the risk of direct contact with flames, thus limiting potentially harmful substances. The heat is evenly distributed across the cooking surface, allowing food to cook evenly and avoiding localized burning. Conviviality: the brazier-plancha allows you to cook as a group, with everyone able to participate or supervise the cooking around the brazier. It creates a convivial atmosphere where the meal becomes a social activity as well as a simple culinary experience. After the meal, the brazier continues to serve as a source of heat, prolonging moments of sharing and relaxation. Cooking versatility: the plancha offers great flexibility in the type of dishes you can cook, from breakfast to tapas to grilled meats.

The difference between a BBQ grill (also called a TRIO or grill with integrated griddle) and a barbecue lies in how they cook food, their structure, and their primary use. Read the full article here.

Seasoning your fire pit's griddle creates a protective, non-stick layer and reduces the risk of rust. This seasoning process occurs naturally with repeated use, thanks to the buildup of cooking fats and oils. The more you use your griddle, the more it will season with a thin layer of grease. You can also choose to speed up the process by seasoning it as soon as you receive your fire pit.

The first use of the TRIO is a crucial step. There are several techniques to light a fire in your brazier. It is up to you to choose the one you prefer. We recommend the so-called « tipi » technique. It is a small basic technique, which consists in reproducing the construction of an Indian tent with the wood you have. To light a fire according to the technique known as « tipi » follow the following steps: 1/ Make paper balls and place them in the bottom of the fireplace. 2/ Place firewood around the paper balls to form a small teepee. 3/ Turn on the paper and wait for the firewood to catch fire. 4/ Add larger pieces of wood. Do not add them too quickly because a fire needs oxygen to burn. The rise in temperature must be done gradually, in particular to avoid damaging certain steel parts and the welds. When making your brazier, the plancha is pressed towards the center of the fireplace to allow the grease to flow directly to the fire and not onto the floor. It is important that you maintain a gradual temperature rise for at least 60 minutes before starting to have a cooking temperature. Otherwise, it could be damaged and deformed.

Use well-dried oak or beech. Be careful when using certain types of wood, such as tropical hardwoods. These woods generate too much heat, which can cause the griddle to warp. It is your responsibility to research the origin of the wood you use and its suitability for cooking to avoid endangering your health. We do not recommend using charcoal, as it will not generate enough heat to warm the griddle to the correct temperature. If you wish to use charcoal, it is best to combine it with wood to preheat the fire pit or to add more fuel to the fire and maintain a good bed of embers.

Le culottage de la plancha de votre brasero permet de créer une couche protectrice antiadhésive et limite l’apparition de rouille. Ce culottage peut se faire de manière naturelle au fur et à mesure des utilisations de votre brasero par les dépôts de graisse alimentaire. Plus vous utilisez votre plancha, plus elle se culotte avec la couche fine de graisse.

Vous pouvez également décider d’accélérer le processus en réalisant un culottage dès la la réception de votre brasero.

Corten steel, also known as weathering steel, is a type of steel distinguished by its ability to naturally form a protective layer of rust when exposed to air and weathering. This surface rust layer acts as a barrier against corrosion, preventing further degradation of the steel. Read the full article here.

Ambient fire pits and plancha fire pits are two types of outdoor heating and cooking appliances, but they serve slightly different needs and functions. Here's a comparison to help you choose the one that best suits your requirements.

The COEO TRIO 3-in-1 fire pit is the only fire pit in the world to have received the prestigious iF Design Award. Created in 2020 by the French brand COEO, the TRIO fire pit/griddle/barbecue is recognized for its design and performance..

The air supply plays a crucial role in fuel combustion and therefore in the fire pit's efficiency. Easy ignition: A well-ventilated fire pit makes lighting easier because the air-fuel mixture is optimal from the start. If there isn't enough air, it can be more difficult to achieve a stable flame. With its upward airflow, the TRIO promotes easy fire ignition because air is drawn directly to the flames. This allows for a stable and long-lasting fire quickly. Optimal combustion: The upward airflow allows air to circulate efficiently from the bottom of the fire pit to the top, continuously supplying the fire with oxygen. This results in more complete combustion, generating more heat with less fuel. Heat management: Good upward airflow helps distribute heat evenly throughout the fire pit, ensuring a rapid temperature increase and consistent warmth. This is particularly important for the correct temperature of the griddle, where a well-heated cooking surface is necessary for efficient cooking.

⚠️ Note for coastal areas: black lacquered steel fire pits are not the most suitable for seaside locations. Salt air accelerates their corrosion, even with treatment. Regular maintenance is recommended, or consider Corten steel.;
