WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

Rotisserie cooking rotates food in front of the rotisserie burner, creating an intense heat for searing the outside and sealing in natural juices.

The rotisserie burner reaches cooking temperatures in about

1 minute. It is not necessary to preheat when using the rotisserie.

■Select tender meat and poultry.

■Allow at least 1" (2.5 cm) space between rotisserie burner and the food.

■To make cleanup easier, place a pan under the food to catch drippings.

■The hood can be opened or closed, but when using the rotisserie with the smoker the hood should be closed.

■Add barbecue sauce or glaze only during the last 10 minutes of cooking to keep sauce from burning.
