  1. What a great idea! I didn't even think about seeing if other brands attachments could work with it. I suppose so long as the bar will fit in the motor then we are good to rock and roll? Thanks for sharing!
  2. This is where I got it from: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0757HLNF1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Looks like its unavailable at the moment though.
  3. It turned out really well! Things I learnt: Use the two Weber baskets, one on each side of the chicken Ensure that the chicken is very securely skewered to the spit. As it cooks its shrinks and it came loose on my spit half way through Have the temperature high, 350f to 400f, to get a crispier skin Briquettes may work better than lumpwood due to longer, steadier burn I haven't tried anything else yet, but I really want to try to do a homemade doner kebab on it. I think Pichanha would be awesome! Let me know if you try it. Honestly I have no idea about the smokey mountain question. I think that so long as the temp is high enough it should be the same principal. The main reason to use the rotisserie is to get the chicken to baste itself in its own juices as it turns. I don't think you would need to be close to the coals so long as you can get the temperature around the chicken high enough. Hope this helps!
  4. Hi everyone! New here so I thought I would show by face by showing my newest toy and see if anyone else has used one: a rotisserie for th Kettle! I usually stick to branded accessories but this time I went for a knock-off one off Amazon for half the price, and so far it seems to be spot on. Little bit of a loose fit on the lid, but nothing too major. I've got a chicken on at the moment and I used my slow n sear basket for the coals. Next time I think I will use the weber baskets, one on each side of the chicken. Has anyone ever tried doing this directly over the coals? Any other tips? Cheers John
  5. Hi everyone! I have working my way through a bag of Aussie Heat Beads and I finished it yesterday. Whilst they do last longer than any other briquettes I have had, I have found them hard to work with. Has anyone else had any problems with them? I have experienced: Difficult to get lit Hard to maintain a steady temp I'm running a slow n sear in a Weber Kettle and have always been able to maintain a steady 250F/120C with other briquettes, but I have found it incredibly difficult if not impossible to do with the Heat Beads. For me they take forever to get past 200F, stick at 250F for about 30 minutes then begin to shoot past 300F. If I close the vents a little they drop down to 220F. Is it just me? Am I doing something blantantly wrong that I can't see?!
