Choose from Battery, Electric, and Heavy-Duty Motors

At BBQ Spit Rotisseries, we offer a range of spit motors to suit your needs. From convenient battery-powered motors for smaller setups to heavy-duty electric motors designed for large-scale cooking, we have options to match every BBQ enthusiast. Battery-powered motors are perfect for portable setups, while electric motors are ideal for those looking for constant power and a smoother, quieter operation.

Heavy-duty motors are built for big roasts and long sessions, offering the power you need for larger cuts of meat or commercial use. Whatever your BBQ style, we have a motor that will keep your spit roast turning without fail.

Find the Right Motor for Your BBQ Rotisserie Setup

Choosing the right motor depends on the size and type of your rotisserie setup. Our motors come in various power ratings and sizes, so you can find the perfect match for your barbecue. If you’re roasting a smaller chicken or a few kebabs, a standard motor may be sufficient. For larger meats like lamb or pork, consider a more powerful motor to ensure smooth rotation throughout the cooking process.

It’s important to match your motor with your rotisserie rod size and weight capacity, and our team is here to help you select the right motor for your setup. Whether you're new to spit roasting or a seasoned pro, we’ll guide you in making the best choice.
