Product Information

What sets the Cajun Bandit products apart is that the rings can be flipped over and used on the Weber Smokey Mountain cookers. To the best of my knowledge these are the only rotisseries that fit the 18.5 and 22.5 WSM. Remove the first spit fork from the spit. Using tongs or a carving fork, push the meat off the spit and slide it onto the cutting board. (Keep your heat-proof gloves on until you have the spit set down on a heat proof surface.) Cut the trussing string and remove it from the roast immediately. (The crust on the meat will harden as it cools; the sooner you get the trussing string off, the better.) Grab the spit with heat safe gloves or oven mitts. Plug the point of the spit into the rotisserie motor. Lower the notch on the spit into the groove on the other side of the grill. (The groove is in the rotisserie ring for a charcoal grill, or is built into the side of the firebox for a gas grill.) The rotisserie kit sold by Weber (model 2290) was upgraded in 2012 and now fit great on all 22.5 inch kettles including the Master Touch and Performer series.

A grill with a rotisserie attachment (spit, spit forks, motor, and motor mount (which is attached to the rotisserie ring if you bought the Weber kettle rotisserie). Onlyfire is a new player in town. If you spend some time reading their marketing material it becomes pretty obvious that they are an overseas factory selling direct as a brand. Universal rotisserie kit with 45"×1/2" hexagon spit rod. The whole spit rod consists of 2 short spit rods, fits most gas grills with a cooking box up to 39" wide. Note: NOT FIT FOR ANY OF WEBER GRILLS!! All of these companies are selling complete kits which include the ring, a spit with two forks and a motor. Let’s take a closer look at what these different companies are offering. Comparing Cajun Bandit against Weber we see that Cajun Bandit provides a counter weight and has better forks. More important is that the motor on the Cajun Bandit is a DC battery powered unit.

Again, not that that’s ever happened to me. Ever. Nope, not even that one time I…um, I mean…nope, never happened. Comparing the Cajun Bandit to Onlyfire we see that, while the Onlyfire is cheaper, it still has the same AC motor as the Weber product. And I have to be honest here, I would much rather support a small American business in Huntsville, Alabama than an anonymous foreign corporation. Be sure to test that your food freely fits and spins on the rotisserie. It is crucial to test this out before you preheat the grill. It makes me happy that you can buy a rotisserie for both the portable Weber Jumbo Joe as well as the massive Weber 26.75 kettle. There is some extra work involved with rotisserie grilling - you can’t just slap the meat on the grill - but it’s worth it. Here is my eleven step program to using the rotisserie attachment for your grill.

I go nuts when it comes to buying up Weber kettle accessories and there are a few that are designed specifically for your rotisserie. Cajun Bandit makes an awesome array of stainless steel rotisseries that fit 18.5, 22.5 and 26.75 kettles. No matter what you are to cooking, use with indirect medium-low heat and the temperature should stay right around 350F.For each size rotisserie you have a choice between a battery powered motor or a traditional motor with a cord. I have used the battery powered version and found it was more than powerful enough for my needs. electric rotisserie motor. Easy to use and convenient, unlike the cordless version, you don't need to change the battery oftenly. 4 watt motor keeps the rotisserie turning at a sustained, constant rate, ensuring every inch of the meat is evenly cooked and succulently moist. Holds up to 20 lbs of food, BUT NOT recommend to cook whole lambs or pigs.

Secure the meat to the spit with the spit forks - push them in there tight. Again, you don’t want anything wobbling around. Make sure the spit is turning freely, the meat is secure, and the drip pan is centered below the meat. If the meat is loose or wobbly, stop the motor, loop some twine around the meat, and tie it down tight. Better to tie it down it now than find it ripped loose from the spit forks later. Set the grill up for indirect heat, with a drip pan in the middle, between the lit burners or the coals.No matter what meat you’re cooking, it is a good idea to truss it first. The rotisserie turns gently, but as the meat cooks, that gentle turning will tear the roast loose if it is not securely tied down. On a charcoal grill, light the coals, then pour them into two piles on the sides of the grill. (If your grill has charcoal baskets, they’re perfect for this.) Set the drip pan on the charcoal grate between the piles of charcoal. Next, put the rotisserie ring on the grill and make sure it is seated.
