Here is my huli huli (huli means to turn/rotate/flip in Hawaiian) setup I have been working on for a while. It has come a long way from the first one I made. I use the large spit to cook pigs (40-65 lbs) and the small spit to cook chickens/roasts. The setup is corrugated metal around the spit and the meat rotates in the center. I use kiawe (mesquite) wood or propane just depends what I have on hand. The stands are adjustable from 12” – 24” and I use cinder blocks under the stands.
