Rotisserie Cooking - Weber GENESIS Manual

Cooking on a Weber rotisserie (sold separately) adds another exciting dimension to your GENESIS
barbecue. Food will cook beautifully and evenly as it turns throughout the cooking process. As the food
is constantly rotating, it bastes in its own juices, resulting in wonderfully moist and tender meat with a
delicious skin.
A rotisserie kit is available as an accessory for your GENESIS and can be used to create mouthwatering,
self-basting spit roasted food. For best results, use the rotisserie with the cooking grills removed from
the barbecue and place one or two Weber drip pans on the Flavorizer bars directly below your food. Set
up instructions are included with the rotisserie kit.
Preheating for rotisserie cooking
Whenever you use your GENESIS for rotisserie
cooking, it's important to preheat the barbecue
first with the lid closed. To achieve the best
results, your barbecue should be hot prior to
placing your food inside.
Install the Weber rotisserie kit on the side of your
GENESIS in accordance with the instructions
included with the rotisserie.
To preheat your GENESIS for rotisserie cooking:
1. Check that all burner control knobs are in the
off position and check with the supplied tank
scale that there is sufficient gas in your bottle
(for LPG models).
2. Open the lid.
3. Remove the cooking grills.
4. Turn the gas supply on at the source.
5. Light all 3 main burners on HIGH (sear burner
OFF) according to the instructions in the
owner's guide.
6. Turn burner 2 to MEDIUM and close the lid.
Preheat the barbecue with burners 1 and 3 on
HIGH and burner 2 on MEDIUM for 10 minutes.
7. While the barbecue is preheating, put your
food in place on the spit in accordance with the
instructions included with the rotisserie.
