The rotary shawarma machine is a specialized piece of equipment that helps to prepare meat dishes like pork, lamb, chicken, turkey, beef, mixed vegetables, etc. Rotary shawarma machines are available in two options: electric and gas. Both types have their own benefits and features.
Gas-powered rotary shawarma machines
The primary energy source for gas-powered machines is natural gas or propane. The meat is cooked using gas flames, and the meat is automatically rotated using a motor. Gas shawarma machines use gas burners to cook the meat. These burners produce flames that heat the meat and cook it evenly. The motor helps the skewers of meat to rotate. This allows shawarma dishes to be cooked and prepared in a uniform manner. Gas-powered shawarma machines are beneficial because they can be used in areas that do not have electricity. The cooking time for gas machines can also be less in comparison to electric machines. This allows the meat to be cooked faster. Many gas-powered shawarma machines also have additional burners for grilling kebabs.
Electric rotary shawarma machines
Electric shawarma machines use electricity as the main power source. The meat is cooked using electric coils. These coils produce heat that cooks the meat evenly. The motor of the electric shawarma machine rotates the meat vertically so that each side is properly cooked. Electric shawarma machines can be plugged into electrical outlets so that the meat can be cooked continuously without interruption. Electric shawarma machines are easy to use and operate. The meat cooks evenly and the results are consistent and uniform. Some electric machines also have an option for using a split grill. This type of grill has two separate grills which can be used for cooking different kinds of meat at the same time.
Sizes
Generally, shawarma machines have different sizes to meet the varying customer needs. The most common sizes are small (generally less than 1.5 m), medium (about 1.5–2.0 m), big (about 2.0–3.0 m) and extra big (above 3.0 m). Pubs and restaurants prefer medium and big sizes, while street vendors must choose portable machines for easy transportation.
Materials
Food-grade stainless steel materials make durable and easy-to-clean shawarma machines. Stainless steel materials are corrosion-resistant, heat-resistant and strong. What is more, stainless steel materials have long service lives and hardly need maintenance, which can ensure the hygiene and safety of food.
Power Supply
The power supply of an electric shawarma machine is crucial because it can affect cooking efficiency and food taste. The power supply options include gas (natural gas or propane), electric and charcoal. Gas shawarma machines cook food quickly because they have heat output. Electric machines are easier to operate and control; however, the heat output might be lower. Charcoal shawarma machines can give a smoky and unique flavor, but they need more skill to manage.
Rotating Mechanism
The core feature of a shawarma machine is the rotating mechanism. The machines generally have automatic and manual rotating mechanisms. Automatic rotating mechanisms can ensure more even cooking and are easier to operate. On the other hand, rotating the meat manually every few minutes can make the food more delicious.
Regular Cleaning
Users should wash the outside and inside of a shawarma machine frequently. They can first disconnect the power supply and remove the grill and drip tray. Then, with warm soapy water and a non-abrasive cloth, they can clean all detachable parts. After cleaning, they can assemble the parts again. Finally, they can wipe the machine with a damp cloth.
Check the Heating Elements and Rotating Mechanism
Users should periodically inspect the heating elements and rotating mechanisms of the machines to make sure they work properly. If there are any damages or signs of wear or tear, they should replace or repair them as soon as possible.
Sanitize
After cleaning the rotary shawarma machine, users can apply food-safe sanitizer to all surfaces of the machine, including the drip tray and grill. This can help avoid the spread of bacteria and pathogens.
Lubrication
The moving parts of a shawarma machine, like the rotating mechanisms and bearings, need lubrication from time to time. Users can apply food-grade lubricant to ensure smooth operation and proper functioning.
Check Gas Connections (For Gas-Powered Machines)
Users must check the gas connections from time to time to ensure safety and proper functioning. They can inspect gas hoses for cracks or leaks. In addition, they should check the propane tanks to ensure there is enough fuel.
A rotary shawarma machine is popular in restaurants, hotels, food stalls, catering services, and street food vendors. It helps businesses prepare delicious, high-quality shawarma for many customers.
The machine produces a variety of meals for customers to choose from. Because of its versatility, the rotary shawarma machine may be used to create not just shawarma but also similar dishes like doner kebabs, al pastor, and gyros, which can cater to many tastes and preferences.
The rotary shawarma machine is easy to use and provides consistent outcomes, making it a great training tool for employees. Staff can learn how to use the machine quickly and efficiently, thereby reducing training time and increasing production effectiveness.
Using a rotary shawarma machine can raise an establishment's income. The machine makes it easy to prepare many servings of tasty shawarma, which customers value. Setting up a shawarma station with several machines at food festivals, fairs, or outdoor events can draw huge crowds and boost sales.
Business needs assessment
Before buying a rotary shawarma machine for resale, determining one's business needs is essential. Consider the goal of resale customers. Are they commercial buyers, like restaurants and catering companies? Or are they small, end consumers? This will help know what kind of shawarma machine to buy. A heavy-duty machine with large capacity and superior performance would be ideal for commercial buyers. End consumers, on the other hand, will prefer a compact, user-friendly version.
Durability and build quality
When it comes to durability, the materials used to make the shawarma machines play a key role. Stainless steel continues to be the top choice due to its strength, resistance to corrosion, and ease of cleaning. Aside from stainless steel, some machines feature premium aluminum alloys, which are known for their lightweight and heat-conducting properties. Aside from the materials, the overall build quality also determines how long the machines will last. Pay attention to the welding and fastening. Only choose machines with reliable, quality mechanisms.
Safety features
Safety is paramount—both for customers and employees—so it's important to look for machines with safety features, such as emergency stop buttons, anti-scald handles, and protective guards. The presence of temperature control and automatic shut-off functions also aids in preventing overcooking and overheating.
Energy efficiency
Energy-efficient machines help to cut operating costs and lessen environmental impact. Those with energy-saving modes or efficient heating systems are worth considering.
Supplier reputation and support
Be sure to choose a reputable, reliable supplier. A supplier that offers good after-sale support and spare parts availability is important for customers’ peace of mind.
Q1: Can a shawarma machine make other foods?
A1: Yes, a rotary shawarma machine is versatile and can cook various foods besides shawarma. It can prepare dishes such as grilled beef, chicken, fish, and vegetables. However, some additional requirements or modifications may be needed to accommodate different types of food.
Q2: Can someone use an electric shawarma machine outdoors?
A2: Generally, the electric shawarma machines are primarily for indoor use. Using them outside can damage the machine. But some machines can be used outside if there is a power source and a flat surface. It's better to use it temporarily outside, not regularly.
Q3: Is it safe to buy a used shawarma machine?
A3: Yes, it is. But, it's better to buy a new machine for one's peace of mind. With a new machine, a person is sure that no one has ever used it before. If a used shawarma machine is to be purchased, make sure it's still in good condition and fully functioning.
Q4: Can someone get a custom shawarma machine?
A4: Yes, some manufacturers can create a custom design to certain specifications. A custom design will suit unique requirements or specific business needs.
