BBQ Hack Skewer Hack Frequently Asked Questions
What is the BBQ Hack Skewer Hack?
The Skewer Hack is a vertical stainless-steel skewer system that lets you cook shawarma, tacos al pastor, kebabs, and more on the grill or in the oven—no rotisserie required.
What’s included and what are the skewer sizes?
Each set includes a stainless-steel base plate and three removable skewers in different lengths: 7", 8 3/4", and 12". This lets you match the skewer height to your cooker and recipe.
Will it fit my grill or oven?
Yes—it's designed to work in most grills and standard ovens. Ensure you have at least ~7" of vertical clearance above the cooking grates so food won’t touch the lid.
What is it made of and how do I clean it?
Both the base plate and skewers are made of stainless steel for durability and easy upkeep. All parts are dishwasher-safe for quick cleanup.
Any setup or cooking tips?
Center the base plate on the grate, stack marinated meat tightly on the skewer, and cook indirectly to render evenly. Use a drip pan under the base if desired and slice thinly from the outside in as it browns.
Why choose the Skewer Hack over traditional skewers?
The vertical design cooks evenly on all sides, saves grate space, and makes it simple to produce authentic shawarma or al pastor at home—without buying a dedicated spit or rotisserie.
