At Flamery, we like cooking that’s confident, simple and rooted in live fire.
A rotisserie fits that brief. It doesn’t replace classic grilling, it gives you another reliable way to achieve juicy, even cooks, steady heat and a bit of extra theatre! Here’s 6 reasons why adding a rotisserie to your BBQ is worth it:
1) Self-basting means juicier cooks
As the meat turns, rendered fat and juices coat the surface again and again. That natural baste helps to crisp the skin and keep the flesh tender—perfect for rotisserie chicken, pork loin or a leg of lamb. Then rest the joint on the tempering shelves to keep the heat while you finish off the sides.
2) Even heat, less hassle
Instead of flipping and guessing, the spit keeps everything moving so heat touches all sides as it turns. The result is a consistent roast from edge to centre and fewer flare-ups. Just set the rotisserie, watch the fire, and relax while the meat cooks slowly away.
3) Hands-off cooking while you host
The motor handles the heavy lifting while you pour drinks or chat with guests. It’s an easy way to cook “big” without standing over the grill. When it’s time to carve, you’ve got a centrepiece that looks the part and slices cleanly.
4) Built for bigger cuts (and bold flavour)
Some cuts simply excel on a rotisserie: whole birds, turkey crowns, game, lamb legs and even cauliflower or pineapple. The slow, steady turn builds a lacquered crust and an inviting aroma, drawing in your guests and building up their appetites.
5) Free up the grills for sides
Because the roast is up on the rotisserie, you’ll have plenty of space to cook your sides. Place some potatoes or veg underneath to catch some of the drippings, then the Flamery V-shaped grills will catch the excess and drain it away to reduce flair ups.
6) Tempering rack for resting and staging
The Rotisserie Frame Kit has optional stainless tempering racks— a handy space to rest joints, keep food warm, or bring steaks up to temperature before finishing on the grill. The Tempering Rack frees up the rest of the BBQ for sides and keeps everything in the perfect, indirect heat sweet spot.
In short, a rotisserie brings slow roasting to live fire—self-basted meat, even heat, enough time to host. It handles the big joints, frees the grills for sides, and the tempering racks keep everything warm until you’re ready to serve. Add the Flamery Rotisserie Frame Kit to your Asado setup and enjoy simple, juicy cooks with a bit of extra theatre.
