Elangrill 24P-CAMINO Legna Wood-Fuelled Chicken Grill

A wood-fuelled planetary rotisserie grill cooks poultry evenly by rotating spits around a central heat source, exposing every side to radiant heat and smoke. The wood fire beneath the birds infuses them with a barbecue aroma while the motor-driven discs keep the spits turning at a steady pace, preventing hot spots and ensuring consistent browning. Because the heat comes from burning logs or charcoal rather than an electric element, the temperature can be adjusted by adding fuel or controlling airflow, giving the operator direct control over the intensity of the roast.

To use the Elangrill 24P-CAMINO Legna, the operator loads up to twenty-four 1 kg chickens onto the six stainless steel planetary discs, securing each bird with the forked spits. The discs are locked in place so that only the spits rotate, keeping the chickens close to the wood fire for faster cooking and better fuel efficiency. Once the fire is lit and the desired heat level reached, the motor is switched on via the control panel, setting the discs in motion. A removable stainless steel bucket beneath the spits collects fat and drippings, reducing flare-ups and simplifying cleaning. The operator monitors the cooking process, adding wood as needed to maintain the temperature, and removes the birds once they reach the required internal temperature.

The grill is constructed from stainless steel, chosen for its resistance to corrosion and high temperatures. The open-frame design allows heat and smoke to circulate freely around the birds, while the planetary discs ensure even rotation. A 0.25 kW motor drives the rotation, drawing power from a standard 230 V single-phase supply, the type commonly found in professional kitchens. The unit measures 1020 mm wide, 490 mm deep and 646 mm high, a footprint that fits beneath most commercial extract canopies while leaving space for the operator to tend the fire and load the spits.

The control panel houses the motor switch and any indicator lights, allowing the operator to start and stop the rotation without reaching into the heat. The 230 V supply means the grill can be plugged into a standard wall socket, avoiding the need for a dedicated high-power circuit. The 0.25 kW motor draws minimal current, so it can share a circuit with other low-power equipment without risking overload. The stainless steel fat collection bucket is removable for emptying and washing, reducing the time spent scrubbing the grill after service.

Cleaning involves removing the bucket, emptying the ash from the firebox, and wiping down the spits and discs with a damp cloth. The stainless steel surfaces resist sticking, so grease and residue come away easily. The open-frame design means there are no enclosed spaces where grease can accumulate, and the absence of electric heating elements eliminates the need to descale or replace worn-out parts.

The 24P-CAMINO Legna is part of Elangrill's Camino range of wood-fuelled rotisseries, which includes models for different capacities. This version is catalogued under wood-fuelled chicken grills, distinguishing it from electric or gas-fired rotisseries.
