Title: Spit Roast Chicken
Post by: Prof. on October 24, 2013, 09:30:40 PM
Hello friends, after the failure of the first time yesterday I tried again and I did spit roast chicken with the rotisserie kit weber. The chicken weighed 5.5 lb and I did not brine, marinade or injections but I only applied a rub with Provencal herbs in the cavity and I put a bunch of rosemary, thyme and marjoram. I started 40 briquettes and divided in the two fire point and roast for 75 minutes until the chest was at 170 * F and golden brown skin. The chicken was a rare goodness, crispy skin in all its parts, thighs were delicious and chest really soft and juicy .. the best chicken I've ever eaten! The rotisserie kit made ​​really to the difference ..

That looks great! I just did the first cook on my rotisserie a couple days ago (though I have used it on a propane grill several times.) I did not think to put any herbs in the cavity (though I have fresh rosemary, sage, thyme, parsley and more in my garden.  ::) ) Next time I will for sure!
