Anyone currently using this kit? I've been eying it for over a year and the only reason i haven't pulled the trigger yet is that every time I check the website, it seems that it's always on a 2 months backorder. To say I'm a bit of a impulsive buyer might be an understatement. Just don't have the patience of ordering something that arrives in 2-3 months. Any feedbacks is much appreciated. Who knows it might be worth the wait. Thanks.

I have 2 of the kits, which I bought at a discount during the original Kickstarter campaign. It is fun to use. I use them when I tailgate and when I have company to the house. It is a great way to feed a lot of people, along with cooking different foods. They are well made, but a bit expensive.
I want one of those in the worst way! saw that when I first wanted to make Picanha, been drooling over it ever since. Hard to pull the trigger on though. One of these days!!

Much easier to pull the trigger if you don't have to wait 3 months for delivery.
@Jules V. , true, that would suck, I've gotten WAAAAY to used to prime 2 day shipping...LOL
@Jules V. , I am with you, the only reason I haven't purchased one yet is because I don't want to wait. I was thinking I'd get really drunk and visiting the website and hopefully forget I ordered it. Then when it arrives......SURPRISE, Carson Rodizio!
Being as impatient as i am, i would gladly pay an extra $100 if it can be delivered in 3 days instead of 3 months.
I really want one but seen a few vids they are apparently pretty noisy??

Why are we such an instant gratification society.
Doesn't anyone have patience anymore?
Oh yeah, people yell at microwave ovens to hurry up.
"Good things come to those who wait".
I don't get the allure of this contraption. Seems like it would be awkward and a pain in the butt to clean. And as a bonus it's expensive and on back order. Bamboo skewers are cheap and I can load a 22 completely up directly over coals. Turn and rotate frequently and throw the skewers away when done.

Yup. Not sure of the attraction. I've lived all these years without one, and don't see it improving my life. Save yer money. My thoughts.
It' s an accessory, like a Slow n' Sear, rotisserie, vortex, griddle, etc. If you think you'll use it and are willing to wait, buy it. My thoughts. BTW, you can crank out a ton of chicken wings one of these.

Those other accessories you named, I can understand and appreciate a purpose. I honestly am missing the point of this one, not putting it down. It looks like all of the top skewers wouldn't be getting much heat while the lower ones would. Or am I missing something?

I use lump charcoal to build the fire, which produces more than enough heat. True, the bottom skewers will cook faster, than the top, so you rotate them, but the top skewers receive plenty of heat. I used 2 of them on 2 kettles at a tailgate a couple of years ago and fed 30+ people. It definitely catches people attention. I refer to it as the " spinning meat circus". Not trying to sell you, just answering the question.

This is one of those instances where I'll buy one, only if I win the lottery. More of a want than a need for me, but I'll put it to use regularly.
Nope. Not 4me. I will, however, buy another kettle... if the right one comes along. No grail involved, just one that makes me want it. I gotta get pix posted of the 18" greenie I got from Mr.CPHo. Sweet.
Part of the design is to have a multi zone cooking. Lowest rack is more for searing and the higher racks used as a warming rack or for food that requires lower heat. Without the use of the lid, it would be very hard to control the temperature. The different heights of the racks provide an option to choose the temperature setting at the food level.
I host 4-12 of my buddies for a weekly drinking session and we are a bunch of meat eaters while drinking. We are always on the patio drinking and cooking. Having the Rodizio kit should solve the problem of the meat/food getting cold. Just slice a portion of the meat and back on the rack to keep it warm. Sure you could use a skewer but sometimes constantly turning them can be a hassle especially when everybody are working on their second 6 packs.
I say Go for it! Even though it'll take a few months, time seems to be flying by nowadays and 2-3 months will pass before you know it. Additionally, you might kinda forget about it and then get surprised when it shows up!

Welcome to WKC, Troy.
That Colombian web site isn't coming up for me, but that's probably a blessing. ;)

That's kind of like saying that a Weber roti is pointless because you can put a chicken or two on the grill and rotate them until they are done. With this, you just kick back and drink while everything rotates itself. I'd love to have one, but too cheap to fork over that kind of dough for one.

That looks fun! Probably a better price as well.
Yes
Much less $$
And almost as much fun!
