Cooking on a rotisserie (sold separately) adds another exciting dimension to cooking on your SPIRIT
EX. 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 outside.
A rotisserie kit is available as an accessory for your SPIRIT EX and can be used to create mouthwatering,
self-basting spit roasted food. For best results, use the rotisserie with the cooking grills out of the
barbecue and one or two foil drip pans resting 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 SPIRIT EX 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 rotisserie kit on the side of your SPIRIT
EX in accordance with the instructions included
with the rotisserie.
To preheat your SPIRIT EX 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 according to
the instructions in the owner's guide.
6. Turn burner 2 to LOW and close the lid.
Preheat the barbecue with burners 1 and 3 on
HIGH and burner 2 on LOW for 15 minutes.
7. While the barbecue is preheating, put your
food in place on the spit in accordance with the
instructions included with the rotisserie.
Rotisserie cooking:
1. After preheating for 15 minutes your barbecue
is ready to cook. Leave burner 2 on LOW and
turn burners 1 and 3 to TWO NOTCHES LESS
THAN HIGH (HIGH -2).
2. Open the lid and put the rotisserie, with the
food already in place on spit, on the barbecue.
The food should be positioned above burner 2.
3. Place one or two large foil drip pans on the
Flavorizer bars directly beneath your food.
4. Turn on the rotisserie and ensure it's turning
smoothly. Close the lid and cook for the
estimated cooking time.
