What is the maximum capacity of the rotisserie? I am trying to cook a largeprimerib and it does not seem to turning correctly.

I do not have the Grill Pro, it didn't fit my unit, however, in answer to your question, you have to balance it as well as possible. Grill Pro and most of the other high end rotisseries have enough power (torque) to handle most jobs. Now if your roast is quite a bit heavier than recommended, you'll put your unit into undo stress. The closer to perfect balance you can set your meat, the better results you'll get. CD

I don't understand what you mean by "roti." It does not have rotisserie capability if that is what you mean.

None. I spoke with a rep at Weber in June and he told me there are no current plans by Weber to build one. Bummer. I complained a lot but I doubt that it worked. This is my favorite grill. A rotisserie would make it the best ever. Lets all keep sending e-mails to Weber and complain. Maybe we can nag them into making rotisseries.Cajun Griller

Hi Judi! The largest bird i roasted I think it was about 8 lbs and it fitted very comfortably in the rotisserie. If the bird it's more in with then it is in lenght I believe a 10 lbs will be just fine! It's a great "kitchen toy"! :-) cooks just the way we like it! thank you for your question. And Merry Christmas!

Sorry to hear that.....because I do a lot of 'canning' I can guess that you did NOT leave enough 'head' room or space for the unit to create the pressure it needed to process. Most units require that it be filled not more than 1/2 way.....just like a fryer....you need room for the expansion. Hope it didn't make too much mess in the kitchen and you were able to save the contents (what were you making ?) Mine stopped working after less than a year of use (I used it maybe 5 or 6 times) .....returned it.....however, when it was working, it did great. Not sure I'm going to get another just yet. Hope this was helpful. Sorry to hear that.....because I do a lot of 'canning' I can guess that you did NOT leave enough 'head' room or space for the unit to create the pressure it needed to process.

Not sure, I cooked with it up to 450, it did great. No warp, held up, easy to clean. I'm sure it could easy go up to 500.

you have to keep turning it, which works best if you have a long grill burner. But I usually make my paellas outside on the charcoal grill, where I can make a fire to fit the pan. With a little practice, that works excellently

I have to agree with Michael...I sent mine back as it was scratched up, looked used and every time I plugged it in the controller smoked (I tried 8-10 times). Was afraid to even give it a whirl, so wouldn't recommend. My suggestion: invest in a 1600 watt portable induction cooktop and use your own clad induction ready cookware. With those you can use them as a slow cooker. It's the solution I finally came up with.I never took the opportunity to measure volume since, as I said, the controller smoked, even after leaving it plugged in for 30+ minutes 8-10 times. It did look to hold 4 qts. to the top, but would advise using only 2-3 qts., just in case it boiled over.

Not in my case, never a problem. I have used it to rotisserie roasts for hours, got warm, but not hot.

My answer is the same as the other two who responded. However, I did have a question about # 9 Plastic drip tray...when I first got my second Infrawave Oven. Couldn't understand until I saw that it referred to use of rotisserie in some models. This is my second oven and I love it.

Kalorik manufactures it. It is not better than the Ronco rotisserie. We wish we would've bought the Ronco first.

Its a universal rotisserie with a37 1/2 in spit. So, get a measuring tape and a drill with 1/4 bit and the rest is self explanatory. Lol

Yes, but only if you build your own speed reduction so the final maximum speed is around 5RPM to rotate up to 100 lbs of balanced weight. Running at a lower speed with this motor to direct drive a rotisserie system is not recommended as this motor runs at its optimal performance at 50RPM. That means if you turn the speed down with just the speed controller, the torque of this motor is not going to be strong enough to run well, especially below 10RPM.

Not as a "rotisserie" exactly but I do roast whole chickens 3-4 lbs in my Breville Smart Oven - it does an excellent job. Also to make lass of a mess, I use a oven roaster with a lid. There is one model by Granite Ware 13" that fits in the Breville. Granite Ware is cheap material/quality but does the job well.

Love the Showtime rotisseri. Have cooked many chickens , legs of lamb and prime ribs. Never had a problem. Maybe you recieved a defective model. I would send it back and try another, Good luck.

You need to get an Kettle Rotisserie kit from Weber.com I have one and it works great. try this link http://store.weber.com/accessories/category/cook/1100

Sounds like you need to adjust something, mine stays flat unless you turn the knob to rotisserie
