Abstract: Barbecuing apparatus having a plurality of broiling trays arranged to rotate about a common axis. The trays are circumferentially spaced about a rotary shaft, extend radially with respect thereto, and are releasably mounted on disks and arms attached to the disks. The disks are mounted on and driven by the rotary shaft. Below the trays a bed for charcoal is located which heats the food in the trays. The charcoal fire is controlled by water directed at the fire through a plurality of quenching nozzles. Smoke rising from the trays is scrubbed by a high-velocity water mist supplied by a nozzle assembly above a fine-mesh screen through which the smoke passes.
