It’s a perfect way to get people outside and mingling while also serving as a focal point in the yard.

Mouthwatering flavour

The smoky flavour of a roast cooked on a spit is unbeatable. Regardless of how well you season your roasts in the oven or on the grill, there’s something special about a roast cooked on a spit. As the roast turns, the meat self bastes with all the flavour of the rendered fat mixing with the spices over and over. The flavour is also enhanced if it’s cooked over a charcoal spit roaster.
