BROILMASTER P3 Heavy Duty Standard Rotisserie
ABOUT ROTISSERIE COOKING
- Because it rotates slowly over fire, lean meat or fowl cooked on a rotisserie requires less attention and achieves an excellent flavor and appetizing appearance. Direct heat rotisserie cooking over a single burner or side of a twin burner being fired is usually done at a low or medium burner setting.
- The twin burner featured in some models allows indirect rotisserie cooking. The cooking grids must be removed when using the rotisserie. Tum on one side of the burner and load the meat on the spit rod so that it will rotate over the unfired side of the burner. Great barbeque flavor is still imparted into whatever food is prepared yet even less attention is required during cooking. (After indirect cooking is completed, it is suggested that the unfired side of the burner be lit for several minutes to bum off any droppings.)
CAUTION: Use protective gloves and care to protect you or your family
from bums. Do not leave the rotisserie unit unattended.
WARNING: Do not expose rotisserie to weather elements.
ROTISSERIE INSTALLATION
The optional rotisserie consists of the motor, spit rod, meat holders, motor bracket, spit rod locator sleeve and hardware.

ROTISSERIE OPERATION
PREPARING MEATS FOR THE ROTISSERIE
- Some amount offlare-up is desirable in outdoor cooking. It’s the flare-up that imparts that great “barbeque flavor” to foods being prepared.
- Excess fats should be trimmed from beef or pork to reduce the drippings of melted fat and prevent excessive flaring. Lower temperatures will also help prevent excessive flare-up.
- An excellent collection of recipes tested on Broilmaster® gas grills is available. Ask your dealer or write to us about our gas barbeque cookbook.
NOTE: Suggestions from Broilmaster® owners for further uses of the rotisserie will be appreciated. If you have any ideas, write us!
ROTISSERIE USE
Warning: Do not operate the sidebumer option simultaneously with the
rotisserie. The sidebumer will melt the rotisserie handle.
-
Secure meat firmly to the spit rod with meat holders. (It may be necessary to tie fowl and rolled roasts to retain their shape for even rotation.) To ensure proper rotation, it is important to adequately balance and fasten the meat or fowl onto the spit rod.
Before heating the grill, rotate the spit rod and meat manually a few times. If out of balance, attach the counterbalance assembly to the spit to even out the weight and rotate again.
During cooking, adjust the meat holders if the meat shrinks and pulls away from the spit rod. Use gloves and caution to prevent burns. -
Prepare the grill for rotisserie cooking by removing the cooking grids. Be certain that the rotisserie brackets and motor are securely in place, then light the burner and close the grill lid for preheating.
Important: The side shelf will need to be removed to accommodate the motor on Broilmaster® S5 grills. -
After preheating (350 to 400), place the loaded spit rod into position. Start the rotisserie motor and make certain the food is properly balanced. Close the grill lid and lower the heat as required by changing the valve knob setting or by opening the grill lid to any of the adjustable secondary heat regulator positions, allowing heat to escape from inside the grill.
Note: Beef and pork roasts and certain types of fowl will release a considerable amount of fat and juice in the process of cooking and are therefore “self-basting”. Lean meat and chicken will taste better if basted occasionally with melted butter, margarine, salad oil, barbeque sauce or a sauce of your own preference.
The exact degree of “<loneness” can be determined by the use of a meat thermometer.
