kettle rotisserie question

[Arnie Huber]

Hello All,

Can anyone tell me if the rotisserie shaft for the gas grill (#9890) is the same shaft that is used on the kettle rotisserie (#2290)?

I now have the gas rotisserie and would like to use on kettle. Weber offers the kettle support ring #63340 . (also would need s/s motor bracket).

Thanks for any help.

Arnie

I can tell you this. I have the same gas grill you did (except it's not stainless) and my kettle skewer would not fit it. It's possible the gasser shaft might have notches that would fit the kettle but the kettle rotis would be too short for the gasser.

if the gas grill rod is longer than the kettle is wide then you can make things work. if the rod does not have cutouts then you can use spit rod bushings.

also you can make yer own brackets out of some thick sheetmetal or stuff for building reinforcments at lowes etc.

Justin & George,
thanks for the info.
yes, the rotisserie rod is longer than the kettle and i'm thinking the spit bushings made it work.
thanks again, arnie

first time i made rotisserie bird was with a hand-propelled spit.
three of us took turns turning the hen.
if i remember correctly, none of us 3 were sick afterwards so "Wishbone" musta been cooked through...

got any ice to go with that rum?

 

[Arnie Huber]

Jim, rum is only a photo prop, I would never think of grilling and drinking. It's a good thing I don't think that much.

My question was answered, and yes it does work.
Thanks George for the spit bushing info, work very well.

Two 4lb. yardbirds.

Grill and NOT drink

I wouldn't think of grilling and not drinking

Yard birds look great !

I love doing rotisserie chicken because it DOES give me more time to have a few drinks!

Looks great!
