    Loved it but didn't tighten the screws enough so it took longer as it slid and got stuck.  Next time, will cook at a higher temp.  I usually cook a whole chicken at about 400 for 15 minutes per pound.  That being said, aroma was terrific and the piece I nibbled on was great. Thx @Dredger

    @eggnewtoy, you're very welcome. I posted on your thread about your cook. Good looking chicken! Be sure and tighten the set screws on the forks with pliers or it will loosen up as it spins. You'll need the pliers to loosen them after the cook too. Never thought I would have a pair of pliers as a kitchen accessory, lol. Instead of one large chicken, we've started doing two 4 plus pounders at the same time beside each other on the spit since the left overs are so incredibly versatile. Looking forward to your next cook and congrats on this one!

    @Dredger, so now that you've had the JT for awhile now, what are your thoughts, impressions of it?  I just purchased the JT for my XL and am waiting for it to arrive.

    I use the crap out of mine every time I make picanha. 


    You want to talk about match made in heaven. That’s one cook that just blows it out of the water.

    I have a rotisserie setup for my Weber Kettle that I got prior to stepping up to a BGE. I have to say it works pretty well, but we've not used it since moving to Eggville. I can't see getting a second version for the BGE. Glad to see others are having great experiences with the Joetisserie
