may be easily removed when not 
in use.

Rotisserie Cooking Tips (on some models)

1.

The rotisserie can accommodate 

up to 15 lb (7 kg) of meat with the

limiting factor of rotating clearance.

For best results, the meat should be

centered on the center line of the 

spit to eliminate an out-of-balance

condition.

1.

Remove the warming rack or swing

basket (on some models) and the

grids if additional room is needed.

2.

The rotisserie can be used with 

a cooking grid if space allows. 

Place the meat closest to the handle

on the spit to make handling easier.

3.

Fasten the meat securely on the 

spit prior to placing it on the grill. 

For poultry, tie the wings and legs in

tightly to avoid contact with drip pan.

4.

In most cases, rotisserie cooking is

best with the cover closed and the

heat reduced.

5.

Prior to placing the meat on the grill,

baste the meat with vegetable oil. 

This will enhance the browning on 

the outside of the meat.

6.

For most applications of rotisserie

cooking, a drip pan is recommended

to catch the drippings. Place drip pan

on top of Flav-R-Wave,® beneath

center of food. Put half to one inch of

water in the drip pan. Fruit juice, wine

or a marinade may also be added to

enhance the flavor. Do not let the

drip pan run dry. For cooking without

a drip pan, close attention must be

paid to avoid the risk of grease fire.

7.

To avoid injury, use oven mitts when

handling the spit or working around

the grill.

8.

Turn grill off and allow it to cool

before removing drip pan. The fat

drippings are highly flammable and

must be handled carefully to avoid

injury.

Rotisserie cooking tips.

Rear Burner Rotisserie (on some models)

Certain models have a rotisserie burner.

The rotisserie method is the best for

cooking roasts and fowl. With the heat

source located behind the food, there is

no chance of a flare up caused by fat

drippings to burn or spoil your dinner. 

A dish or drip pan placed below the spit

will collect the juices for basting or for

preparing a sauce.

Convection Cooking Tips

This method is ideal for roasting large

cuts of meat with or without a rotisserie.

1.

Set up the grill before lighting. Place

drip pan on top of Flav-R-Wave,®

beneath center of food. Put half to

one inch of water in the drip pan.

Fruit juice, wine or a marinade may

also be added to enhance the flavor.

Do not let the drip pan run dry.

2.

For roasting without a rotisserie, 

place meat on a roasting rack directly

on the grids.

3.

In most cases, convection cooking 

is best with the cover closed and 

the heat reduced.

4.

Turn grill off and allow it to cool

before removing drip pan. The fat

drippings are highly flammable and

must be handled carefully to avoid

injury.
