The Workhorse of Charcoal BBQ: Why the Flaming Coals Spit Roaster Range Remains a Best-Seller
Author: Sasha Halabi Date Posted:14 October 2025
When it comes to cooking over fire, nothing beats the simplicity and satisfaction of a spit roast. It’s hands-off, feeds a crowd, and brings out that unmistakable charcoal flavour. But not all spit roasters are built the same. Some are too flimsy. Some can’t handle the heat. Others simply can’t stand the test of time.
That’s why the Flaming Coals Spit Roaster Range continues to lead the way. Built tough, designed for real-world use, and backed by years of customer loyalty, these spit roasters are the go-to choice for backyard BBQ lovers across the country.
A Spit for Every Backyard
Our classic non-hooded Flaming Coals Spit Roasters come in a range of sizes to suit every setup:
- Small – Flaming Coals Mini Spit Roaster (Black or Red)
Great for compact backyards, camping, or quick weekend cooks. Portable and easy to pack away, it still delivers that real charcoal flavour.

- Medium – Flaming Coals Minion Spit Roaster
Our most popular all-rounder. Perfect for lamb, pork, and multiple chickens, it strikes the balance between backyard convenience and serious cooking capacity.
Built for big cook-ups, large families, or events. With extra room and a heavy-duty frame, this unit is made to handle whole lambs or pigs with ease.
Each size is made from stainless steel with strong welds and reinforced frames to handle long cooks and heavy loads.
Built to Perform Every Time
What makes these units best-sellers year after year is three things: durability, simplicity, and performance.
Durability: Every Flaming Coals spit is built with high-grade stainless steel for rust resistance and strength. These units are made to handle real heat and real meat, season after season.
Simplicity: Assembly is straightforward, and the open design gives you full control over your fire and meat position. No overcomplicated parts. No guesswork.
Performance: Pair any unit with our Flaming Coals motor options for smooth, steady rotation. Whether you’re cooking two chickens or a full lamb, your spit won’t miss a beat.
Motor Strength That Keeps Turning
Each Flaming Coals spit roaster can be paired with our range of powerful motors, depending on your cooking needs. Choose from battery-operated units for small jobs or heavy-duty 240V motors with torque to spare.
No matter the size of your cook-up, our motors are engineered to handle the load and run for hours with consistent rotation.
Accessorise to Suit Your Cook
One of the reasons the Flaming Coals spit range continues to dominate is the versatility it offers through accessories.
Want to cook chickens side-by-side? Add a chicken cage kit.
Planning gyros for your next gathering? Grab the gyros disc.
These accessories let you adapt the same unit to different meals, styles, and seasons without needing new gear.
