Remember not to use the same utensil for raw food and cooked food as this could lead to

they don’t clash, then they will rotate freely until the food is ready. You may wish to swap the cages
around half way, as the rear skewer position tends to be slightly hotter.
Be very careful with the 2 clamps as they are very sharp.
When the food is ready, hold the cage horizontally and open the catches using a pair of BarbeSkew
Mitts to ensure that you don’t burn yourself on the hot cage.
