Hickory's award winning Model 5.5 Barbecue is the most versatile countertop rotisserie on the market today. Guaranteed to produce profits, the 5.5 has been designed for ease of operation and menu versatility. It will batch cook to perfection with a sophisticated point of purchase merchandising display. The operator can choose between rotating spits and wire basket trays, or combinations of the two. Constantly rotating baskets and spits catch the eye of customers. The 5.5 uses a double rotational planetary drive system to assure the pinnacle of product quality. All of this is accomplished in a minimum of counter space, in an oven that will complement any countertop location.

Cooking: Nine cubic feet of cooking space provides a capacity for up to 25 chickens per batch per hour. (The 5.5 will also accommodate roasts, ducks, small turkeys, brochettes, etc.) The removable rotating interior allows for the optional cooking of large roasts, turkeys, and suckling pig.
The user can use both the convenience of basket loading, and the self-basting capability of rotating spits. Each 5.5 comes complete with 5 spits complete, 5 hanging baskets, 1 turkey spit, and 2 turkey skewers. Thermostatic controls, displayed in Centigrade and Fahrenheit scales, enable settings for baking, barbecuing, and warming.

Merchandising: The interior cooking area is illuminated with quadrant lighting and is 100% visible to both the operator and the public, enhancing the appeal of the merchandise. Two machines can be stacked, doubling capacity within the same cooking area. The second machine can be used for warming or for additional cooking capacity during peak sales periods.

Ventilation: Electric units do not normally require air evacuation. However since the surrounding environment may get hot, a hood may be useful. Gas units must be vented, either under a hood or directly vented via a flue.
Drive Mechanism: A sprocket gear attached to gear motor drives a chain, which in turn drives a large sprocket gear on the central drive shaft. The drive wheel has individual drive gears which operate in a planetary action around a stationary gear.
Installation Requirements: Licensed electrician, licensed gas fitter for all gas connections and checkout. HVAC specialist for air evacuation. Placement of this machine is critical since it is hot. Plan carefully.
Front Facings: Machine is made with high grade polished stainless. Side boxes can be ordered stainless or black hammerton finish.
Service, Maintenance, and Construction: Full side service panels allow easy access to all working parts. The 5.5 is easily cleaned from front to back, enabling the user to meet all sanitary and hygienic requirements with a minimum of time and effort. Removable interior allows for quick maintenance and minimal cleaning effort. The interior cooking area is constructed completely of highgrade stainless steel. Insulation is complete on all top and side panels. Rigid box design insures strength.
Safety: The horizontally hinged, tempered glass service doors pneumatically open completely after 60% displacement and self closes after 40% displacement. This system prevents slamming and glass breakage, and also provides full access to baskets and spits without blocking aisle space. Electrical components are located behind the control panel in an area fully insulated from the interior cooking space. Control panel information, with clear, legible graphics, eliminates confusion for even the novice operator.
