Does the new large rotisserie support a turkey? If so, what size? I didn’t see weight specs on the BGE website.

    Just received my XL Rotisserie.  There are no specs related to weight included in the packaging.  The QR code on the insert goes to a deadlink on BGE website.  My plan is to do a 14-16lb turkey next week.  I will post pics/vids on the setup.

    It's a balancing act. IMO even weight distribution is as, if not more, important as the motor's weight rating. Too bad it doesn't come with a counterbalance weight. https://youtu.be/Z9VYnU9M6ek?si=RaxMtU7HGJmqeF3I

    From BGE:

    The Rotisserie is designed to fit an average-sized turkey for a family of 10–12, which typically ranges from 15-24 lbs. While the rotisserie can handle heavier weights, our testing showed that this size allows the rotisserie to spin smoothly without contacting the dome.
