📢 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. 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 cook anything other than lamb on a spit?
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
I liked shape, look and use very much. They very stylish, heavy duty, and very easy to clean. Best of all keeps raw meat and chicken and other raw food cool very long hours, and after they cooked keeps them very warm for long. Really happy to have them recommend for all the bbq lovers.
I recently bought a charcoal BBQ and I am super impressed with the quality of this mangal. It is sturdy and looks great on the patio. It’s a fantastic size as I can use it to cook for 4 or 40! Love my new BBQ
Happy with my purchase but haven't used it yet. Erik was great to speak and deal with. Delivery was very quick. Would buy from them again.
