How to Use a Gas Grill Rotisserie
When you grill, you can get tired of constantly moving around the meat or chicken so it cooks evenly. A gas grill rotisserie takes care of that for you. Whether it's an attachment or built in, a rotisserie is great for cooking large pieces such as poultry, prime rib roasts and leg of lamb. The skewered food rotates over indirect heat and cooks slowly and thoroughly while you enjoy drinks with your guests. Does this Spark an idea?

Stick the chicken or meat firmly in the center of the rotisserie skewer. Roll the skewer to make sure the item feels balanced. If it's heavier on one side than the other, adjust it so the two sides cook evenly.
