Weber Rotisserie For Kettle
« on: August 24, 2013, 04:20:07 AM »
Hello guys, I am thinking of purchasing the rotisserie kit for my new platinum and was wondering if anyone has anything good or bad to say in regards to the kit? Thanks
Thanks,Tim

Check out the Cajun Bandit roti ring bundle too. The stainless ring is very nice, and it fits like a glove.

+1 on the Cajun Bandit unit if you are buying a new unit.   I could not pass up a 1 year old Weber on CL for $30.00.  I do like the ROT.  The Weber unit does have a small gap.  If I was really worried about it I would use some foil to fill the gap.

Just picked up a barely used one on CL for $50, and used it for the first time on Wed. I really like it. If I was going to get a new one, I'd be purchasing a Cajun Bandit (+2!!), as it fits the 22 WSM, as well.

Both work well. The CB ring has a tighter fit , and it can be flipped to work on a 22 WSM.
The Weber one sets a little taller, and it can only be used with a 22 in kettle. As stated it does  have a gap, but i have never had issues with temp control.
Here is a pic of both in action.

Guys, are the new weber roti rings different from the old ones?  Specifically i have heard they leak less.  Truth?

I want one bad, I have one for the genesis 1000 that I scored for $25 on CL and have been holding out for a similar deal for the kettle version. You will not regret it, the gasser roti comes out great I can only imagine how much better the kettle would be.

That's a Weber.  I'm wondering if it includes the ring??  That's a hell of a price for a brand new one.

Has anyone ever ordered forom that place?   50 bucks is insane unless the ring is not included.

Interesting.  I am worried that you do not get the ring and therefore it is not a good deal anyway.

I had the same experience. The great price and shaky interaction makes ya wonder about the legitimacy...
