Shopping Friday night, Meat aisle, Hams. Seen this Hillshire Farms ham for $7 bucks. Priced to sell fast do to a small leak in the vacuum packaging. I made it mine.



Saturday afternoon tie up.


Heat wave 35 degrees outside.


Started cooking at 375 and let it drop down to 275, cooked it about 3 hours total.






Hickory does its magic.

I do like your setup! I need to find a beater kettle (or a charbroil) to drill into. I had an old daisy wheeler, but I gave it to a friend that wanted a kettle.

Oh snap!  I didn't even notice that it was just an old drilled out kettle and not a rotti-ring.   Nice!
Interested in ANY offset handle SJs you may have.

Now that's a "cave man" cook. Nothing like a chunk of mastodon roasting over an open fire. Simply awesome, thanks for sharing!

 Make your own Weber rotisserie for $30.00
You will need
1 Old Weber
1 Universal rotisserie kit, home center about $30.00
1 Thermometer for the lid about $6 at the home center. You will not know your cook temperature without this.

1. Drill 2 5/16 holes, one inch below lower kettle rim, in the center of the kettle parallel to the wheels.
2. Run spit rod through holes, mount motor bracket on left side. Bracket will have to be shimmed out do to curvature of kettle.
    Do not attach bracket without shims for this will add heat transfer to the bracket and motor.
3. I sawed off the non-point end of the skewer rod so only a few inches protrude when in use.

   The rod goes into the motor on the left side. The bushing keeps the rod from walking out the right side.
   Questions?
   Thanks,
