**Kebab-O-Lator v1.0**

[swamprb]

OK- I am inspired by the creativity of some of the Kebab setups floating around here-(BBCue-z's, Spinnari's and others)

So, I called my friend BOB and picked his brain about a skewer system that would be an addition to the Rib-O-Lator. He had some ideas, and pumped this out and gave it to me to try.

I just thought I'd share it here and gather some feedback.  Its got to back to the drawing board for some tweaking, but BOB already has come up with a few other prototypes with removable skewers etc, etc. So, here it is v1.0.

Charcos Coconut shell briqs, 1 Char-Basket full. Cherry Mojobrick Qube for smoke on the Performer-Cajun Bandit rotis ring.






1lb. each of boneless chicken thighs and Pork sirloin marinated for 24 hours in Stubb's Marinades (Chicken & Pork) skewered offset to avoid cross contamination



Grilled at 400* @ 40 minutes (I was peeking)







They turned out OK, I'm sick of Stubb's chicken marinade, the pork chunks had a little smoke ring.

The skewers need to be closer together, the meat rubbed against the spit rod. Removable skewers would be a MUST.

I was raised to not play with my food and clean my plate, due to the starving children in China, so I'm making up for it now!

Any feedback appreciated, I'd like to incorporate it onto the ROL, so this is likely the last time I will use this design, so if there is anything you'd like to see, post it here!

Stay Hungry!

That looks like it works perfectly, very nice job swamp!

Is that Charcos charcoal available locally or do you order it in? good stuff?

Stubb's chicken & pork marinade are not for me either...they're good in a way, but are pretty spicy for what they need to do (pork anyway)

Great job! Looks tasty

Very innovative my friend!!
Try these Kabob wheels


Each wheel has 6 skewers and serves the same purpose. It also fits perfectly on the Kettle Rotis. You can get them at Amazon.com.
I noticed that you were cooking using indirect method. I personally prefer the direct method when using a similar setup. Since the Kabobs are constantly moving and the meat is cut into small pieces, nothing gets burned and the kabob brown evenly on all sides.

Great idea on the skewers.

I'm glad to see you are working on your own skewer grilling project, it is addictive - I know.
