Joetisserie

Anyone know if the Joetisserie fits a large BGE?
The problem with a problem is that you don't know it's a problem until it's a problem, and that is a big problem.

    It's not really about low and slow.  The Joetisserie is about even cooking and somewhat of a "set it and forget it" approach.  I've done chickens, kabobs, ribs, and even pork chops.  You get your temp where you want, get is spinning, and come back at the prescribed time to some fantastic results.  The only downside is to make sure your meat is VERY secure to the rod or the basket.  It's a moving cooking device and if you aren't careful the meat will fall off and into the coals.

  • Fits perfectly on a Large BGE. I love the chicken I've done on it so much I'll never go back to spatchcocked birds. Well worth the price.

    I had been so jealous of the Joetisserie I had even made several home-made knock-offs http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1196556/cheapisserie
    which worked well but temperature control was limited. Broke down and bought the real thing last week and am going to put it through the paces tonight on a couple birds.

    So far, I have done chickens, turkey, and prime rib with my Joetisserie. I love it! I'm looking for more things to experiment on.

    Does the skin of poultry get crispy using the Joetisserie? That is the ONLY thing I miss about the gasser/rotisserie I used to have. I've tried the cornstarch, air drying in fridge tricks without satisfaction. I still end up with rubbery skin. If I cant get crispy skin, I want one!

    Probably my favorite accessory - and it fits the large BGE perfectly. I've had it a couple of months and have cooked chickens, hens, whole turkey, turkey breast, pork loin, and rib roast. Using a basket attachment, I've also cooked pork chops, chicken breast, burgers, and sausages. 

    Also, @krobertsmsn, I think the skin turns out great.

    Try raising the bird up higher in the dome and cooking it at 400 degrees.

    Raised indirect is the way to cripsy skin IME, you can skip the air drying and all that.  Get the bird as high in the doom as you can so it's getting that radiant heat off the dome.  I've got a DIY raised rack I use, I put my platsetter in for indirect cooking, cast iron grid (at gasket level), then the raised rack is 4 or 5" above the gasket.  Cooked two cornish game hens last night, turned out great, 350*F for about an hour:

    I own a Joetisserie and use it religiously (as a Pastafarian) in my Large!   The question I have is "If BGE decided to come up with a Rotisserie for BGE what would they name it?  Egg-tisserie just seems too .... common... There's gonna have to be a really great reason that we'll pay even more than the Joetisserie to get a device "specifically" for our Green ones, NO?  Egg-Rotarian, Spit in an Egg, Egg-Rot (well maybe not), Rotating Egg Thingy... come on ... give up some possibilities!!!

    I don't know (or care), but you can bet they'll take a perfectly legitimate word and replace some letters with e-g-g. Roteggerie perhaps? Or something equally stupid. Offhand, I can't think of anything as ridiculous as "conveggtor", but if it can be done, I'm sure they will. And yeah, probably $300 - a nice round number. I'm waiting for the Ozark Trail version at $29.74. :rofl:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Well, I decided to check the trademark database and Eggtisserie was registered by BGE on June 7, 2016. 

    Interestingly, I also see that they registered Dizzy Gourmet in 2012 in the spice/rub category. Was there any talk of BGE acquiring Dizzy Pig?

    Other items of note:

    Eggbrella and Reggulator (DFMT alternatives)
    Eggzilla 
    Eggspert
    Eggmitt 
    Kulinary Kamado

    Here's the full list.
