Operating the rotary spit
The rotary spit can be used with excellent results to cook joints,
such as rolled roasting joints and poultry. The meat is roasted
thoroughly and evenly.
The drive for the rotary spit is automatically activated as soon
as you switch on the grill.
Preparing roasts
1.
Place the joint as centrally as possible on the rotary spit and
secure it at both ends with the retaining clips.
You can also secure the joint using kitchen twine.
2.
With poultry, bind the ends of the wings underneath the back
and the thighs against the body. This prevents them from
overbrowning.
3.
Pierce the skin on the underside of the wings to allow the fat
to escape.
