📢 Frequently Asked Questions
❓ What size spit roaster do I need for a whole lamb?
A 150cm spit roaster is ideal for whole lambs, goats, or multiple large roasts. A 130cm spit works well for smaller lambs, whole pork roasts, or multiple chickens.
❓ How much charcoal do I need for a spit roaster?
For a whole lamb (15-20kg), start with 8-10kg of lump charcoal spread evenly under the spit. Adjust as needed to maintain a steady heat.
❓ How long does it take to cook a whole lamb on a spit?
A whole lamb or pig (15-20kg) takes 4-6 hours, depending on heat levels and rotation speed of your lamb spit BBQ. Ensure an internal temperature of 75°C in the thickest part before serving.
❓ What’s the difference between a spit roaster with a hood vs. no hood?
Hooded spit roasters trap heat, cook more evenly, and reduce cooking time. Open spits provide a flame-kissed BBQ flavour but require more heat management.
❓ What’s the best way to season meat for spit roasting?
For traditional lamb or pork, use a simple seasoning of salt, pepper, garlic, and oregano. For beef, a mix of rosemary, thyme, and olive oil works well.
💡 Tip: Let the meat marinate for at least 12 hours for maximum flavour.
❓ Can I use my lamb spit BBQ for other meats?
Yes! Our spit roasters are perfect for:
- ✔ Whole chickens
- ✔ Beef roasts & rolled ribeye
- ✔ Whole goats & large skewers (souvla-style BBQ)
- ✔ Vegetables & whole fish using skewers
❓ How do I control the heat when using a spit roaster?
- Move the coals around to adjust heat intensity.
- Raise or lower the skewer to control how close the meat is to the heat.
- Use a hooded model for better heat retention and even cooking.
❓ How often do I need to turn the spit manually?
✅ You don’t! Our powerful motors (rated for 40kg) keep the meat rotating automatically for even cooking.
❓ What’s the best way to clean a spit roaster?
- Remove the skewers and scrape off any food residue.
- Wipe down the stainless steel with warm water and mild detergent.
- Let it dry completely to prevent rust.

NEEDS REVIEWING AS DOESNT HOLD WELL UNDER LOAD
I recently had a friend cook me a meal on his charcoal BBQ and it was delicious. I decided I needed one, and went to Sydney BBQ's and Rotisseries. Not only did I get a great BBQ but Eric also cooked me lunch on their BBQ, to show me how to operate them. Super stoked with both the BBQ and the service from these guys!
Worked like a treat and did the job. Kiddo and the boys were super impressed!! Not even sprinkle of rain could put out the coals.
The charcoal is good stuff
I was getting fed up with the quality of some of the Kitchen Boards i have purchased,I found The Australian Brisket Board online at Sydney BBQ and thought i better have one, best decision i have made OUTSTANDING QUALITY.
Although i live in Kalgoorlie definitely worth the wait to receive this great product.
These victorinox knives are my absolute favourite, and it's difficult to find in the black. I buy them whenever I find them, can't get enough!
Needed a make shift BBQ (main one is getting built in) and it absolutely did the job cooking two massive steaks. Highly recommend using their Mallee Root Lump charcoal too!
I recommend for everyone best quality 🫡
First cook of wings and nailed it, highly recommended these baskets
Premium 20mm Adana Skewers with Wooden Handle (8 Pack)
This stuff is gold, I was transported back to my childhood, instant nostalgia to the local charcoal chicken shop. Brilliant !!!
