2. For roasting without a rotisserie, place meat in a roasting
rack directly on the grids.
3. In most cases convection cooking is best with the cover
closed and the heat reduced.
4. Turn grill off and allow it to cool before removing drip pan.
CAUTION: THE FAT DRIPPINGS ARE HIGHLY
FLAMMABLE AND MUST BE HANDLED
CAREFULLY TO AVOID INJURY.
ROTISSERIE COOKING:
1. The rotisserie can accommodate up to 7 kg (15 Ib) of meat
with the limiting factor of rotating clearance.
For best results the meat should be centered on the center
line of the spit to eliminate an out-of-balance condition.
2. The rotisserie can be used with a cooking grid if space

make handling easier. (Fig. 9)
3. Fasten the meat securely on the spit prior to placing it on
the grill. For poultry, tie the wings and legs in tightly to avoid
contact with drip pan.
4. In most cases rotisserie cooking is best with the cover closed
and the heat reduced.

REAR BURNER ROTISSERIE
Certain models feature a rear burner for rotisserie cooking.
The rear burner rotisserie method is the ultimate for cooking
roasts and poultry. With the heat source located behind the

collect the juices for basting or for preparing a sauce.
The spring loaded rear burner may be easily removed when
not in use.
