Rotissiere question

[JimH TX]

I am going to do a sirloin tip roast on the roti this weekend. How many charcoal brickettes should I use banked on the one side?

I don't count briquettes when I use a rotisserie on a Kettle but I normally use about 3/4 filled Weber chimney starter and split the fuel between the two sides. I add more coals as necessary during the cook and restrict air flow at the bottom vents to control temperature.

It ain't science, it's barbeque!

Thanks, I'll start there, 3/4 of a weber chimney is 60 pieces of charcoal.
