Nice. I could use that for my turkey today. Going to try and fit in my 6 inch ez-que basket.
I would like to roti a brisket with that also.

Can't wait to put my OctoForks into action, look like they are doing a great job for that bird. Still like that cooker, gonna have to build myself one :wink:

Josh how long did yours cook spinning in that profile vs the traditional way? I gotta say I was shocked how fast mine cooked....with the cavity holes wide open facing the heat I think it basically cooked equal inside and outside at the same time.

Traditional way as in horizontal with the legs being closed? I think with the cavity being open is the biggest difference.

Yes exactly, open veritical and cavities facing the direction of the heat. Gotta say I was very surprised the difference from horizontal.

2.5 hours..Perfect! I was hoping you had the same experience. I had lost my coal base taking the 007 to where our meal was so my fire wasn't very hot for the first hour and still finished @ 2.5. Glad it went good this year and again it looks great, Everyone loves a moist turkey!

Can they be used on a PBC or WSM without modifying the pit?

They can be used on any cooker that accepts a rotisserie. Now being that the pbc is so tiny you may not have room for food and all 40 coals.
