5698k Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 I just recently received a rotisserie for my 19" tt, and thanks to Charles' advice, I changed the wing bolts to Allen set screws. The set screws require a wrench, which obviously isn't as convenient, but there are clearance issues with any type of deflector. Anyway, I just did a 5lb chicken, dry rubbed with the slabs birds and bones,(thanks Bosceaux), and turned out the best bird I've done in a long time. If you don't have a rotisserie, I recommend it!
Rak Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 Looks great Rob! I have a bottle of that birds and bones that I still need to crack open! 1
MacKenzie Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 Rob, that chicken looks delicious and I can imagine how juicy it is. 1
tony b Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 I'm not going to be able to hold out much longer on buying the roti basket! These chicken cooks are driving me crazy!! 1
5698k Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Posted February 8, 2016 It really is a better bird, for the life of me I can't direct grill chicken as well as I can spin one. <br /> <br /> <br /> Rob
Gnomatic Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 I'm not going to be able to hold out much longer on buying the roti basket! These chicken cooks are driving me crazy!! I'm in the same boat. I wish I had ordered the roti basket with my KK last fall.

bosco Posted February 8, 2016 Report Posted February 8, 2016 fantastic looking bird!!! I am dying to here what you thought about the birds and bones rub!!!!!!
5698k Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Posted February 8, 2016 The rub is pretty good, great flavor, I just like more punch. Not necessarily heat, just some wow factor. I think most people would really love this stuff, I'm definitely ordering it again. <br /> <br /> <br /> Robert
Geo Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 Great looking chicken, Rob. I don't normally eat the skin, but I'd have to make an exception with that bird! Tell me... That brand new roti looks soooo pretty... Is it hard to clean?
5698k Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Posted February 9, 2016 Not really, I usually give it a spray with pam, but it's pretty easy anyway. <br /> <br /> <br /> Robert
tony b Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 For future reference, what size allen screws to replace the wing nuts?
5698k Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Posted February 9, 2016 Ya know, I'm not sure! I just took the wing bolts to a hardware store and got thread size comparable! The Allen in 2.5mm<br /> <br /> <br /> Robert
ckreef Posted February 9, 2016 Report Posted February 9, 2016 For future reference, what size allen screws to replace the wing nuts?Should be 5mm x 12mm. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT
