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
min. It is not necessary to preheat when using the rotisserie.
◼
Select tender meat and poultry.
◼ Allow at least 2.54 cm / 1 in space between rotisserie
burner and the food.
◼
To make cleanup easier, place a pan under the food to
catch drippings.
◼ Add barbecue sauce or glaze only during the last 10
minutes of cooking to keep 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 inward. Tighten the screw to keep it
from slipping.
2. Push the rod through the center of the bird.
3.
Cut 61 cm / 24 in of butcher’s string and center it under the
bird, breast side up.
4. Wrap each end of the string around the wings; catch each
wing tip. Bring the string tightly together at the top of the
breast and knot. It is not necessary to cut off the extra
string.
5. Cut another 50.8 cm / 20 in 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 string around the
crossed legs.
7. Connect the twine holding the legs, to the string holding
the wings, and knot. Cut off any bits of hanging string.
8. Slide on the second fork pushing the tines into the
drumsticks.
9. Center the food and forks on the rod and tighten the
thumb- screws. The bird should be firmly in place on the
rotisserie spit rod.
