📢 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.

Let customers speak for us
Recently I bought a pizza oven so good I recommend them to anyone from Sydney BBQs & Rotisseries excellent service I'd use them again
omg I can't believe how beautiful it's and it's a good size
First time coming here and was pleasantly greeted by the team. Not harassed like many other places that you go to. I was let walk around at first until I was asked if I needed any assistance. The team were very delightful to deal with gave me some good tips and ideas on smoking food. I’m more than happy to come back to this place as it is convenient and their prices are pretty reasonable Eric and Suzanne pleasantly to deal with.
Excellent product and service it arrived very fast
First batch was 9kg of mixed deer and fat, Easy to use, had my 7yo cranking the handle. Would recommend.
These guys are the kings of skewers! The wooden handle means no more burnt fingers!!
Shipping was really fast and the product is really good quality and works exactly as described. Would 10% recommend.
Delicious rub goes perfect on beef and lamb!! Highly recommend
I recently purchased a charcoal bbq, what a great product, I used it the following day to cook 150 skewers from Suvlaki Brothers, the guests at our party couldn't believe how good everything was that came off the bbq, would highly recommend for anyone looking to purchase.
Great product. Low smoke point. I use this on our apartment balcony with no issues. Good price too
Very sharp, high quality butchering set . I love it !
Really happy with Hardcore Carnivore Black. The activated charcoal gives a nice dark crust on steaks and brisket without any weird taste. Flavour is well balanced - pepper, garlic and a bit of savoury depth. It has enough sodium that you don’t need to add salt seperately when seasoning, although a bit of finishing salt at the end is still a good idea. Easy to use and looks great. Delivery was even better than expected; it arrived a full day earlier than the tracking showed. Will definitely buy again.
Great product and it tastes amazing. Very convenient 1kg bag so you are able to cure a fair bit of bacon with it. Highly recommend
