COMBINATION COOKING

Combination cooking is done by cooking some foods directly over the coals while cooking other foods on the opposite end of the fire. The fire box should be in the highest position ("sear" on the cooking style indicator), or 4 to 6 inches below the cooking grills, with the heat deflector removed. With the fire confined to one end of the fire box, you may cook potatoes, corn, bread, chicken parts, etc., at the end away from the fire while searing steaks, chops, etc., directly over the coals at the same time. Remember that the hood must be closed for combination cooking, and slower cooking foods should be started earlier than the "searing" foods.

ROTISSERIE COOKING

Rotisserie cooking is impressive and fun. However, you can easily and successfully cook anything on a Hasty-Bake without using a rotisserie since our unique design allows the heat and smoke to rotate around your food. However, should you desire to use the rotisserie cooking method, we do have rotisserie kits available for all Hasty-Bake models (except the Portable).

Rotisserie cooking involves having the food rotate constantly throughout the cooking process. Always balance your meat well on the spit rod and secure it with the spit forks.

It is a good idea to double check to make sure that the meat is secure. Tie or pin fowl wings flat against the sides of the bird. Rotisserie cooking times may be faster than those used for roasting or baking by the indirect cooking method. To keep fat and juices from falling directly into the fire, spread the coals along the outer edges of the fire box and place aluminum foil beneath the meat to catch

the drippings. The heat will rise along the back

of the unit, cooking the meat on all sides as it rotates. Another option is to

confine the coals to one side of the fire box with the heat deflector in place. This is a form of indirect cooking, using the spit rod for self-basting. Foods which are rotated while cooking tend to be self-basting, and therefore more moist and juicy.
