Party Spit Hire offers equipment-only hire, custom meat orders and two ready-made lamb-and-chicken gyros packages.
The right roaster depends on the gyros weight and whether anything else will turn on the same spit. Our four roaster sizes support from 8kg to 38kg of gyros.
We do not charge per person. Equipment has a published hire price, ready-made packages have a fixed listed price, and delivery or optional cooking is quoted for the event.

Planning the cook
Allow for fire management, carving and a safe serving plan.
Gyros needs steady rotation and a controlled charcoal bed. The amount of meat, serving time and experience of the person running the roast should guide whether you cook it yourself or add the on-site service.
If Party Spit Hire cooks and carves, we confirm access, the outdoor cooking area and target serving time before the event.
- Use a level, stable and non-combustible outdoor surface
- Follow current CFA restrictions and venue rules
- Keep a clear area around the hot roaster
- Plan the serving table and carving space before guests arrive
