Ask a Question About This Product
The PIMAK MB17-2 is a commercial charcoal grill designed for vertical rotisserie cooking of doner kebab and shawarma. It uses traditional charcoal heat to cook meat columns in continuous service environments. Operators in kebab shops, Turkish restaurants, and food trucks use this unit for authentic flame-grilled shawarma preparation.
Commercial Application
This unit fits into commercial workflows where charcoal-grilled flavor is a core menu requirement. The vertical burner column heats the meat stack from the front while the motor rotates the column at controlled speed. Operators carve directly from the rotating column during service.
The grill operates throughout service hours with continuous charcoal replenishment. Heat intensity is controlled by charcoal volume and airflow. Meat column capacity determines maximum service capacity before reload is required.
