Greetings,
Not new to Bar-B-Qing, my path to a pellet-fired grill started with natural gas. A few years of replacing many burners. The grilled food was not what grill goodness should be. imho.

Changed to coal, big improvement, happy taste buds. Heat cycle management was a bit of an art. The Chimney coal fire starter took the art out of firing and cooking tasty food. How it happens, when the coal is lit, & dumped into the grill. It is just beginning to peak, white powdery glowing nuggets of hot.

A few years back & I heard of the pellet-fired grill that was donated to a new local Fire Station. I got interested... Curiosity got the best of me, and a new grilling adventure begins.

Ordered Sunday, delivered today, seasoned two hours after the wheels hit the ground. The grill is heavy, solid & stout. The Rotisseria quality is top tier.

Tomorrow, spin a chicken, got 2 to roast, first chicken sacrificial, most likely. I did order a WiFi temp probe to ride the chicken.
Giddy up !!!!

Welcome Greg!

I've had a pellet grill for about 12 years. It has its place, as do many other types of grills. Curious about what pellet grill you have that has a rotisserie. Mine's an older Traeger that I've upgraded, but no provision for spinning.
 
I am from another Woodstock as well......apparently not " the " Woodstock or your Woodstock....or even Woodstock New Brunswick.......wierd.
Welcome to the board.
I was up to 6 bbq's and ended up selling my pellet pooper, I miss it on occasion but not very often.

Thanks all,
There is always a learning curve. I purchased the 600 Weber, delivered on Wednesday. The rotisserie is universal and fits many brands, well, almost.

All fired up, ready to spin the bird. The rotisserie rod is square, as it should be. The RH end, the grill has a rounded slot ........ Problem: square peg in round hole, no workey.

Long story short, grabbed a trusty file, cut a round relief in the rod. For anyone interested, the measurement is as follows.

From the motor end, measuring the pointed tip to the relief is 28 3/8"
