Available Options
The PI6/M16KB is a gas-fired vertical rotisserie oven with manual hand crank rotation. It processes up to 30 whole chickens simultaneously across 6 removable stainless steel skewers. Designed for kebab shops, Turkish restaurants, catering operations, and food trucks requiring high-volume roasted chicken output.
Commercial Application
Hand crank rotation gives operators direct mechanical control over cooking speed without relying on electric motor systems. The 20 kW gas burner assembly delivers continuous heat to the vertical meat column. Removable skewers allow rapid changeover between batches during peak service periods.
Operators load chickens onto skewers, ignite the gas burner, and manually rotate the crank handle throughout the cook cycle. The Pyrex glass panel retains heat while allowing visual monitoring. A drip tray collects fats and juices beneath the roasting chamber. 30-chicken capacity supports sustained service in high-turnover takeaway and street food environments.
