Description
For South Africans who take their braai seriously, the Home Fires Super De Luxe Spit 1200 is close to a full outdoor kitchen in one unit. It is a heavy duty built in braai with a motorised rotisserie, so you can slow-roast a leg of lamb while the potjie simmers and the chops go on the grid. It is proudly made in South Africa for years of weekend use.
Home Fires Super De Luxe Spit 1200 Features
A real spit braai
The nickel-plated spit arm runs off a heavy duty motor box with a two way switch and plug point. A spit braai like this turns meat evenly for hours, so you get crisp outsides and juicy centres without standing over it.
Ember maker for steady coals
The movable ember maker gives you coals ready to braai in about 15 minutes, then keeps a steady supply going for the whole evening. You can move it to set up the braai for different accessories.
Everything included
- Full length grid with adjustable heights and grid lifters
- Potjie hook, spade and poker
- Warming drawer, ash drawer and ash pan
- 220V light fitting, top and bottom doors
- Insulation material, touch-up paint and instruction manual
Built to last
The firebox is A grade hot-rolled 3mm mild steel, and you can special order 304 stainless steel or utility stainless (3CR12) for coastal homes. The unit is 53.5 x 165.5 x 121 cm, weighs 220 kg and needs a 350 x 500 mm flue. Home Fires backs it with a 15-year limited guarantee.
Is the 1200 built in braai right for your entertainment area?
The 1200 size suits a big family or regular gatherings of 10 or more. With the lower door closed it becomes a worktop, and you can light a fire inside to heat an indoor entertainment area in winter. Burn wood or charcoal. Compare other built-in braais or the full Home Fires range, and see our Home Fires sizing guide.
Installation in Cape Town
Our team builds the home fires built in braai into brick or a custom surround, fits the 350 x 500 mm flue, a cowl that resists Cape wind and the right flashing for winter rain. See our built-in braai builders service.
Super De Luxe Spit FAQs
Can the Super De Luxe Spit 1200 be used indoors?
Yes, with a correct flue and a well-ventilated room. Many owners build it into an enclosed entertainment area and use it as a fireplace in winter.
Can I get it in stainless steel?
Yes. The standard firebox is mild steel, but 304 stainless steel or utility stainless (3CR12) can be special ordered at extra cost. That is a good choice close to the sea.
