Have You Ever Cooked On A Rotisserie Fire Pit?

Well Here’s The Rotisserie Fire Pit That You Can Build In Your Back Yard.


Everyone cooks steaks and dogs on the BBQ, but what could you do with a great big easy to build rotisserie grill?


It’s an easy build. First decide if you want this a permanent installation using concrete base and mortared block work or you could just dry stack the block. That way you can load it up in your truck and move it to a new location – it really is that easy to set up.
