Sharon Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Hello all, first cook on our new rotisserie. A few challenges here. First the motor, clockwise and reswerwing the drive shaft and the basket. Used locktight between motor and basket and that did not help. Onto new fixes, thank you Tony, we reversed motor polarity and were able to get the rotisserie motor to work properly. Here are pics of our new chickie. She is a good sized girl, 5.75 lb., trying to get closer to a small sized turkey. Pronounced delicious! The 3
Bruce Pearson Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 That looks delicious. how long did it take to cook and what temperature?
tinyfish Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Looks delicious, hard to beat a rotisserie chicken.
Aussie Ora Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Nice looking chook love how moist they turn out on the KK Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk
MacKenzie Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Delicious looking chicken, tasty and nice colour. You will soon have the roti cook down pat.
tony b Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Glad to hear that you got it to work finally. We've all been there, a bit frustrating until you dial it in. Then, it's worth all the work and swearing to get a nice chicken like that!
Gnomatic Posted November 21, 2016 Report Posted November 21, 2016 Chicken looks great! The roti cradle takes a bit to master, you're not alone. I did some test runs yesterday with a sack of taters, using the one piece motor shaft that spins the grill socket. It went much better this time. Got a few tweaks to make and do another tator spin and see if its ready for prime time ....
Sharon Posted November 21, 2016 Author Report Posted November 21, 2016 Thanks for all your kind comments. Bruce, between the size of the bird, the fact that hubby kept peeking, and a cold rainy night, it took about 2 hours at around 335 degrees. Thinking of reverse searing a thick NY strip on the lower grill with split charcoal basket tonight, and slow cooking a nice salmon fillet tomorrow on Pleather. Wednesday she gets a day off in order be put back to work on Turkey Thursday!
