I have two of these "precious" Kabob grills or as  they're referred to "Cyprus" grills, where they were originated from "Cyprus, Greece".

They have 3 large Skewers on top that are controlled by one motor and 11 small kabob skewers controlled by a smaller motor.
They also make rotis baskets that fit in place of the large skewers. However, they're only available in Cyprus, Greece and that's where I got them :)

One basket is deeper than the other, but hard to see in the picture. I loaded the deeper basket with boneless/skinless chicken thighs seasoned with my own chicken rub, and lemon juice, garlic & oregano. The second basket was loaded with Brats!!

Also had a boneless leg of lamb that I cut into large chunks to put on the third skewer

Another outstanding cookup !!!

Haven't seen this setup before & have two questions:

1) Do the little skewers that run crossways, lower, also run on a rotation motor & at the same general speed.....I read it that way, but not sure?

2) Do you clear the lamb of fat, sinew & silver skin before or after cooking?
"If you want it fancy there is BBQ spray paint at home depot for that. "
    Covered, damper-controlled cooking.....IF YOU PLEASE !!!
           "But the ever versatile kettle reigned supreme"

1buckie,

The small Kabob skewers do have their own motor and rotate at a gentle rate. I got the original motor from Greece, since the ones sold here use the standard Rotis motor.

They don't raise or lower, they are in fixed position and sit in special grooves as you see in this pix

Only the three large skewers can be lowered or raised.

Sorry 1buckie, I forgot question#2

I usually remove the membrane off of the fat cap first. Unlike beef, lamb has a membrane covering the fat and it's very tough and similar to sliver skin.

I then butterfly it and clean it up as much as possible. I like to leave a thin layer of fat to keep the meat moist during cooking. Especially when using Rotis, you want the fat to melt and self baste during rotation.

I then remove any visible sinew from the meat side and cut it into chunks
