Yard Bird Roti Cook w/ No Forks Experiment

[Fwismoker]

I was just curious if I could get away with not using any type of forks or twine...only part of my new rotisserie system to spin one. Definitely a cheap experiment because the bird was on sale for .77 per lb. This 5.5 pounder was dry brined inside and out with a light coat of Bad Byrons...no oil at all on the skin.

The intent was to run the spits through the thighs but I wasn't paying attention :doh: Oh no worries though because it's doing fantastic.... so far There is an onion on the center spit also which is in the cavity. The little birdie arm pits will be getting a tan too! :becky:

Also blanched some fresh green beans and added butter plus onion to cook in the upper area while the bird does its thing. The hanging rack has some Southern Style baked beans...YUM

More to come

Man you got a lot going on in very little real estate, getting hungry for the results.

So far so good...don't think the pics do it justice for sure. Slow fire cooking this one so it'll be a bit.

Thanks Ron, I'll get a pic from the bottom side but that onion in there smells AMAZING!

She can do lots more but it is pretty efficient...especially with all what you can gt on the rotisserie....it'll hold hold 4-6 Five lb birds, or stuff like 5 or so full racks of ribs/ pork loins, 10-16 feet of kabobs, etc.. spinning then I figure stuff like baked beans/mac n cheese in the hanger basket, then whatever you want on the cook grate.

Man that looks damn good. Probably the crispiest smoked chicken ive seen. Almost looks like Peking duck crispy.

As Hannibal Smith liked to say "I love it when a plan comes together" :becky:

BTW if you're not making gravy with the giblets then you are seriously missing out.
