Sunday I will twirl a near 6# bone in beef rib roast.
I have a Weber Performer, split baskets, and Weber rotisserie kit. When I use this, I leave off the meat rack so the twirling meat clears. Baskets set up on each side of the spit so the coal rack is open directly under the spit.
Where then do I place the foil wrapped spuds? On the coal rack between the baskets? Past cooks I have placed a grease foil pan here to collect the rendered fat; if the spuds were here they would be covered with rendered fat on the exterior and the fat dripping thru to the ash bin. Use a smaller grease pan in the center then the spuds on each end of the grease pan (4 large russets, 2 each end)?
This cook typically is around 2-3 hours for me and running around 325-350F.
If the spuds do go on the coal rack, how long would you estimate to done?
Would be nice if there were a warming rack style grate that clipped on instead of sitting on the normal meat grill which can't be used with the rotisserie.
I do have the meat grate with the hole in the center..... I will try to see if the roast will clear and spin in the hole. This then gives me easy space for the spuds.
