Auspit Spit Rotisseries
Auspit was founded when Rhett Thompson wanted to create a reliable portable cooking system to make outdoor cooking while camping or travelling in your caravan easy and effective. Rhett loved the simplicity of sitting around a campfire at the end of the day with good food, good friends and good conversation without the hassle of constantly tending to food on a traditional camping grill or hotplate. Rhett wanted a cooking system that was versatile, compact and capable of producing food that tasted great with minimal effort. What could be easier than putting meat on a camping spit and letting it cook itself?
Rhett used his knowledge of the Aussie outdoors and his career in engineering to develop the Auspit. What started out as two sticks of metal developed into the product we know and love today.
Unfortunately, Rhett passed away unexpectedly in March 2017 at 58 years of age. In some small way, we hope that Rhett’s passion for the outdoors and cooking on the Auspit lives on in every product enjoyed by us all.

You’ll be cooking great food for the entire camp in no time.
