Is smoke-free barbecuing healthier than conventional barbecuing?

Yes, smokeless barbecuing is much healthier. As no fat or marinade drips onto the embers, the formation of harmful polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs), which can occur with conventional grilling, is avoided. You enjoy pure flavour without any health concerns.

What are the advantages of hiring a Maier grill instead of a conventional horizontal grill?

1. If you offer your guests a Maiergrill, you will certainly receive compliments from your guests for your barbecue catering, especially for the choice of the original Maiergrill concept and the resulting quality of the food preparation.

2. Thanks to the "Maiergrill smoke-free effect", you are flexible and can decide at the last minute, depending on the weather, whether you want to hold your event indoors or outdoors.

3. The Maiergrill is child's play to operate and guarantees consistency from the first to the thousandth guest thanks to the simple setting options. Meanwhile, the preparation quality of a classic horizontal grill depends 100% on the experience, daily form and concentration of the griller. With the Maiergrill, your barbecued food is grilled to perfection, remains juicy, tender and flavoursome.

4 With the Maiergrill, you get a modular system that you can customise precisely to your needs.

Our five service levels are explained below.

What service levels do we distinguish in barbecue hire?

E: Collecting the barbecue and barbecues from one of our logistics locations and doing everything yourself is the cheapest way to benefit from Maiergrill quality.

D: Collecting the barbecue, barbecues, side dishes, drinks, desserts and infrastructure such as crockery and furniture from one of our logistics locations and doing everything yourself is very smart, because we advise you in all areas so that you think of everything and have enough of everything and yet there are no personnel costs. Personnel costs are the biggest cost driver in event catering.

C: Having the barbecue etc. delivered and doing everything yourself is very intelligent, because you delegate the logistics to us, which requires a vehicle that you may not have yourself.

B: Having a barbecue etc. delivered with a barbecue chef who grills, thereby relieving you of this task and giving your event class through his appearance is very convenient and yet extremely inexpensive, because you invest in personnel costs where the greatest expertise is required.

A: Full-service event catering with an event manager who takes care of the effective staging and punctual running of your event from A to Z and a service crew who competently looks after your guests with a smile is the convenient feel-good formula if you want to spend maximum time with your guests.

Full-service event catering is divided into the following four different service levels.

How is the temperature regulated on the smokeless grill?

The temperature of our smokeless grills can be precisely adjusted from minimum to maximum using a rotary knob on each burner. In addition, the grill spit speed can be set to the second from 4 minutes to 12 minutes. This enables flexible and precise cooking, ideal for a wide variety of grilled food such as juicy meat, tender fish, crunchy vegetables, grilled potatoes, sweetcorn, bread rolls and even sweet fruit. The Maiergrill Rondo with a capacity of 80 grill skewers per hour, which is most frequently used for grill hire, also has fixed pre-settings for all these different grilled foods, which makes using a Maiergrill child's play.

Why is the Maiergrill smoke-free?

Thanks to the 'Maiergrill smokeless effect', for the first time you can hold a barbecue event indoors, even in the cold season. The six most important reasons on which our fascinating innovation is based are
1. vertical arrangement of the heat source
2. contactless grilling process
3. food moves permanently
4. low-emission heat sources
5. precisely controlled cycle time
6. several burners arranged on top of each other

How can I be sure that I am operating the Maiergrill correctly when renting a Maiergrill, even if I have never seen it before?

1. thanks to the precise setting of the throughput speed in conjunction with the grills that are optimally matched to the Maiergrill, operation is child's play.

2. you will receive individual instructions when you take delivery of the Maiergrill.

3. you will find the most important points in the operating instructions supplied.

4. if you have any questions during your event, you will receive answers and support on our on-call telephone number.

Is the Maiergrill just a skewer grill to rent or does it fulfil other functions?

Everything that is prepared on the Maiergrill is first mounted on a 30 cm and 6 mm thick beechwood skewer. Whatever your heart desires can be grilled à la minute: meat, fish, seafood, sweetcorn, vegetables and fruit. Our famous grilled potatoes are pre-cooked so that they develop the optimum colour and flavour in a single pass.

In around 7 minutes, a grill skewer is placed fully automatically in the warming zone in a single pass. It therefore also takes on the function of the grill master, who has to decide for himself when the skewer is perfectly cooked on a classic grill.

In the cold season, the Maiergrill can also take over the function of heating the event location.

Can suckling pigs also be cooked on the Maiergrill?

We are known for unique and fascinating barbecue events. No wonder we often receive requests to hire a suckling pig barbecue. Because a suckling pig grill is also a very original way of cooking. Of course, a suckling pig does not fit on the Maiergrill in one piece, as the spit would have to be up to 100 cm long, made of stainless steel and be able to hold up to 25 kg.

With the Maiergrill, the skewer is 30 cm long and made of beech wood. This is large for a skewer, as it can hold up to 250g of meat. Pieces of pork are also excellent on the Maiergrill. Pork neck and pork rump in particular are exquisite. An experience that is guaranteed to be remembered is of course also guaranteed with the Maiergrill, even if it is completely different from a suckling pig grill.

However, operating a Maiergrill is much easier than a suckling pig grill for the following reasons:

1. Less lead time required:
Most suckling pig grills are heated with charcoal, which requires some lead time to reach maximum temperature. The Maiergrill uses propane gas. The maximum heat output is reached after just 3 minutes.

2. Sort cycle guaranteed:
The first skewer is ready after 7 minutes. A suckling pig takes 6 to 8 hours to cook.

3. Fully automatic grilling process:
Thanks to the grilling process, which is controlled to the second, each skewer is automatically placed in the warming zone after around 7 minutes. So there is no need for a grill master to decide when the grilling is finished.

4. Delivered in portions:
No need to cut up the suckling pig. Each skewer corresponds to one portion. Half a skewer is a portion of an appetiser.

5. Can be used flexibly and regardless of the weather:
The Maiergrill is smoke-free. This means you can also barbecue indoors.

Do we have to clean the barbecues ourselves after hiring?

No, when you hire our barbecues, we usually do all the cleaning for you. We want you to be able to enjoy your event without having to worry about the follow-up work. Barbecue cleaning is a fixed item on the detailed order you place with us. Only in exceptional cases, when the aim is to put together the most favourable solution possible, can you take care of this yourself.

Can I hire just the barbecue without the grilled dishes?

No, because it is important to us that you and your guests enjoy the best possible experience. The quality of your experience depends on the combination of the unique Maiergrill AND the grilled dishes perfectly tailored to it.

We offer a wide range of grilled dishes (subject to seasonal availability):

A: For the most discerning palates:
