Abstract
A rotating shelf barbecue oven for commercial establishments is shown. Meats being barbecued are located on shelves in an upper compartment while heat and smoke for barbecuing comes from a lower compartment. Flues in the side walls provide for flow of heat and smoke from the lower compartment to the upper compartments. A shaft extends through the upper and lower compartments and connects to the shelves for rotating the shelves and meats thereon during barbecuing. The compartments, including the flues and the shaft, are constructed to allow for steam cleaning of the upper compartment without the water getting into the lower compartment. Also cooking grease is prevented from dripping into the lower compartment.
