Lighting, Cooking & Maintenance
Light the roaster without the meat first, since the
firelighters will produce odour that is undesirable to get
into the meat.
Select a location that is away from flammable materials, is
well ventilated and not windy.
Put a layer of charcoal briquettes onto the lower cast iron
grate of the firebox so that the briquettes are 1-2 deep.
Place 3 to 4 firelighter cubes evenly spaced around the
firebox, pushed well down into the briquettes. Light the
firelighters with a match, and allow to burn for about 40 –
50 minutes. By this time the smell of the firelighters will
have burnt away, and the briquettes should be glowing and
displaying a covering of ash.
The rotisserie bar carrying the meat can now be positioned
on the roaster. You may want to adjust the height of the bar
on the supports to suit the type and size of meat you are
cooking. (ie it may need to be lower down for chickens, and
higher up for a large leg or side of meat)
Plug the rotisserie motor in to 240volt mains power and
switch on at the switch at the side of the motor box. The
roast should now be turning slowly over the heat.
The grille on the top of the firebox can also be used for
other cooking, (eg baking potatoes) and warming, so long
as the heat to the main roast is not obstructed significantly.
Depending on wind conditions, the briquettes should burn
3-4 hours.
If the fire begins to die down, add further charcoal
briquettes as required. Lift the top wire grille using tongs
and avoid contacting the body of the roaster when doing so,
as it will be very hot.
Maintenance and Service
Cleaning your roaster
Your roaster will look better and last longer if you keep it
clean. Follow these simple steps.
The cooking surfaces: While the cooking surfaces are
still hot, take a long handled brush and a scraper and
remove remaining oil and food scraps. You should use an
oven mitt to avoid burning yourself.
The roaster body: Grease can build up on the body of the
roaster. When the roaster has cooled, simply clean it off
with hot water and detergent.
Do not use oven cleaner as this will damage the surface
coating.
The firebox: clear out ash and brush out once cool.
Storing your roaster
The roaster should be stored in a sheltered location. Be
especially careful not to allow the motor unit to become
wet. If you do not intend to use the unit for a long duration,
lightly spray the surfaces of the body and rotisserie with
canola oil.
This will help protect against corrosion.
Servicing your roaster
Service and spare parts are available from your retailer.
