  • Prongs– you’ll need 2 per roast to ensure your meat is affixed securely. Large prongs are used to secure whole animals, whereas smaller chicken prongs are used to secure roasts and chickens.

  • Souvlaki gyros disks you’ll need 2 disks to squash the meat from either side. Disks will make your life easier if you’re cooking gyros so this style of cooking requires regular carving of the meat and it is easier to carve up against a flat surface than dodging the spikes of the prongs.

  • Counter Balance Weight - Highly recommend if cooking a whole animal to ensure even rotation. If your animal isn’t balanced, the motor will not turn the meat evenly and you may strip the motor gears.

  • Cooking Thermometer – cook your roasts to perfection by testing the internal temperature of the meat. Each type of meat requires it to be different internal temperature to be considered safe for consumption. Don’t risk undercooking your food. Just because the outside looks cooked, doesn’t mean the inside is.
