The rotisserie burner is an infrared burner which
provides intense searing radiant heat. Preferred by
professional chefs over other methods, this intense
heat is great for searing in the natural juices and
nutrients found in quality cuts of meat. Once lit, the
rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperatures in
about 1 minute. The red glow will even out in about
5 minutes.
To install the rotisserie motor, align the drive shaft on
the motor with the gear box on the side of the grill.
Tighten the thumb screws on the motor into the
mounting brackets on the grill frame. The skewer for
the rotisserie is assembled into the gear box assembly
by placing the pointed end into the gear box and
resting the rounded end on the wheels on the left
side of the grill
To load the skewer, slide one of the rotisserie forks
(prongs facing away from the end) onto the skewer.
Push the skewer through the center of the food, then
slide the second rotisserie fork (prongs toward the
food) onto the skewer. Center the product to be
cooked on the skewer then push the forks firmly
toward the food. Tighten the wing nuts with pliers.
It may also be necessary to wrap the food with
butcher’s string to secure loose portions. NEVER use
nylon or plastic string. Once the food is secure, insert
the skewer into the motor. To turn on rotisserie motor,
flip the ON/OFF switch located on the rotisserie
motor assembly.
If needed, remove the grill grates. Place the basting
pan beneath the food. Keep canopy closed while
using the rotisserie. Each peek adds about 15 minutes
to the cooking time. A meat thermometer should be
used when cooking large pieces of meat to ensure
that the meats are rare, medium, or well cooked.
