My chicken was a fryer chicken of about the same weight. I seriously overcooked it. It was the first thing I cooked on the rotisserie and I totally misjudged how much charcoal to use and how long it would take to cook through and went far too heavy on both, but despite being overcooked, it was still surprisingly juicy, and that's what saved it, the self basting from rotating. If I had done it to the same temperature over the same time in a regular oven or in the kettle without the rotisserie, it would've been a dried out wreck and I would have been ordering a pizza that night.
