Cooking equipment

  1. Heating and cooking equipment must be located within the food stall. The equipment must be located so that the public are protected from hot appliances.
  2. The food stall must be of adequate size and height to provide a safe and comfortable work area. Appliances that produce heat and flame must be located away from the walls and lower roof area of the stall.
  3. Open flame barbecue cooking plates, char grilles and cookers that use hot coals can be located externally and adjacent to the food stall and must be barricaded to prevent public access. An overhead cover must also be provided. Ensure that all BBQ residues are collected in drip trays.
