to catch any drips. When using the rotisserie function, always begin with a cold oven.

Tying meats ensures even cooking. It is important to use butcher’s twine to tie items that are to be prepared for the rotisserie function before securing them to rotisserie spit. First tie the items and then secure the rotisserie spit and skewers.

It is especially crucial to truss all poultry with butcher’s twine before securing to rotisserie spit.

Trussing a chicken

There are different methods of trussing but all are basically designed to achieve the same results.

Tuck the wings underneath the chicken to secure them. For trussing, use a length of butcher's twine that is approximately 4 or 5 times the length of the chicken. Place the middle of the twine under the tail, bring both sides up and cross over the top of the tail.

Wrap ends of the twine around the end of each drumstick and pull to draw the

legs together, crossing ends over each other again.

Turn the bird over. Pull ends of twine up over the thighs and wrap around the upper wings, catching the tips of the wings in the loop. The twine is

wrapped around the wing close to the body, and then both ends are brought

to the upper side. If there is a flap of skin at the neck, it is folded up and the two ends of twine are tied over it.

To ensure a crispy skin, leave oven door ajar for last 15 minutes of cooking time.
