Tips for Safe Cooking
•
•
•
ALWAYS wear protective gloves when handling your
rotisserie or handle.
ƽCAUTION: Re-adjustment of Meat Clamp may be
required more than once during cooking due to
food shrinkage.
SECURELY tighten thumb screws before starting your
rotisserie.
ƽWARNING: Rotisserie is metal and will be hot.
Wear oven mits to protect hands during Meat
Clamp adjustment and movement of the
rotisserie.
It is normal for meat to shrink during cooking. This can
cause the meat to move around in the Rotisserie
Basket or fall from the basket. It may be necessary to
STOP the rotisserie and secure the Meat Clamp(s),
making sure to once again tighten the Thumb Screws.
Cooking Instructions
•
•
When cooking more than one variety of meat (chicken
and roast), there is no need to balance the difference
in weights, as the basket is designed to carry the
weights evenly.
Cleaning Notes
•
•
Always wash all components before assembly.
The rotisserie basket disassembles for easy cleaning in
a dish washer. Steel wool pads and/or grill brush may
be used for cleaning stubborn areas.
Can hold up to 2 ten pound whole chickens, whole
pork loin, boneless rump roast, prime rib, split chicken
breasts, ribs, 2 cornish hens, Italian or Polish
sausage, leg of lamb, turkey breasts, or turkey legs.
You can also cook a whole fish depending on its size.
•
Meats or poultry should be brought to room
temperature before cooking. (30 to 60 minutes should
be adequate for most foods. If frozen, defrost
completely before cooking.)
•
•
•
Tie meat or poultry with a string to make the shape
as uniform as possible before placing in basket.
Remove cooking grates and warming rack to allow
food to turn freely.
If you wish to save drippings for gravy, place a drip
pan in the center on top of the Flavorizer Bars before
positioning the rotisserie and food in
the barbecue.
