Cheers guys.

Its actually a skin on peice of shoulder, simply scored, lightly oiled with EVOO then rubbed with salt.

Onto a preheated kettle with deflector in place.

Once on, i run the kettle at 500F lid temp for 30 mins to get the skin popping and spitting, then back it off to 400F for the rest of he cook.

Its a perfect technique to get a top stuff crackle skin every time.

Cheers, Shayne

The peice of Pork was about 3+kgs and took about 2.5 hours to cook.

The biggest thing IMO with the Kettle Rotti for sucsess is a deflector.

Without it, that peice of Pork in my opening post would be looking mighty black and burnt by anout the time i took the picture.

On another forum i mention that, i  have "never used the kettle Rottiserie without a deflector" and all my preceeding cooks have been "A" class.

If your using a genuine Weber Rotti ring, give it a try to compare with previous cooks.
