Rotisserie

Cooking Tips

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 available on some models)

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

•The infrared burner reaches cooking temperatures in about one minute. Do not preheat when using the rotisserie.

•Select tender meat and poultry. Allow at least 1 inch space between infrared burner and the food.

•Rotisserie can be used in combination with the smoker and/or the grill.

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

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

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

Trussing Poultry for the Rotisserie

1.Load the spit rod by sliding one of the forks on the rod, with the prongs facing away from the rod handle. Tighten the screw to keep it from slipping.

2.Push the rod through the center of the bird.

3.Cut 24” of kitchen twine and center it under the bird, breast side up.

4.Wrap each end of the twine around the wings; catch each wing tip. Bring the twine tightly together at the top of the breast and knot. Do not cut off the extra twine.

5.Cut another 20 inches of string and lay it under the back of the bird. Wrap it around the tail then around the spit rod, cinching tightly.

6.Cross the legs on top of spit rod; tie twine around the crossed legs.

7.Connect the twine holding the legs to the twine holding the wings and knot. Cut off any bits of hanging twine.

8.Slide the second fork pushing the tines into the drumsticks.

9.Center the food and forks on the rod and tighten the thumbscrews. The bird should not rotate or be loose in any way.
