desserts Spiedini

[Ashen]

Well it needs a bit of clean up and some high heat BBQ paint but I think my mod on this cheap portable flat bed grill into a spiedini machine worked out well.

Thinking duck and maybe squid for test run next weekend.

Duck and squid for a trial run? Ambitious! I like it!

 

[Ashen]

Maybe baby octopus instead of squid.

Shrimp seemed obvious and there will probably be a few of those as well for the better half, as she just pulled a face about the calamari or octopus.

i`ve never heard of a spiedini machine. that`s pretty nice!

Generally they are just called

spiedini/speducci grill.

They tend to be half the width of this one I modded. But I set it up so the notches are offset for each side if I want to fully load both side. Will probably just use half on the test run depending on how that goes I might need to add a center baffle when only using one side.

the gizmo on the side is a fan? it looks added on?

It is a crank bellows and was an option for that grill. The fit on it wasn't quite right when I put the grill together last year, bolt holes not quite aligned, fairly poor seal where it fed in so I added the aluminum tape.

The bellows is why I think Salsa lady thought it looked like. Portable forge.

If I lined it with fire brick it probably would work fairly well .

yeah the aluminum tape made me think "hacked". at first glance i said "dude hooked a leaf blower to a grill"   but i saw the hand crank and knew it was something i`d never seen before. i`ve done shish kabobs but spiedini is a new one for me.

There is a guy in the we er circles from Australia that has something Similar, but all of the kabob shafts plug into the back and rotisserie. I will see if I can find a link

Me too! I stand schooled here yet again.

 

[Mr.joe]

I also had to do a search. Shop basically it's a grill for making kabobs?

I know Booma was playing with a Carson rodizio awhile back.



They are Italian skewers , generally they are only 2-3 bites to eat. The meat is cut on the small side , very fast to cook.

They even have this box thing where you fill if with slices of meat then skewer down through and cut. You can make them up 100 at a time very easily.

Any updates/show me the spiedini! 

 

[Ashen]

Back to work this week. Should be good to go this weekend thunderstorms allowing.

I will grill in just about any weather but I don't screw with lightening.

 

[Ashen]

Yes, we have no spiedini today.

Weather and other forces of nature (read better half) have moved plans in another direction. Stay tuned. Or should I say stick around.
