Weber 2290 Charcoal Kettle Rotisserie Review
To serve food to a great number of people at a banquet or an army quarter, you need to be armed with dependable cooking equipments. With a rotisserie, your food stays evenly cooked. It is also visually delightful. A high-powered electric motor, a handle made of wood and the mechanism to reduce motor depreciation makes this Weber product fashionable. The basic problem with kettles is uneven cooking so that weighty turkeys get roasted on side and naturally stay raw at the other. What this product does is ensure that the turkey turns on all sides by just fixing the counterbalance. You get a yummy turkey smartly grilled. 22-1/2 inches All kettle grills of 22-1/2 inches can be fitted with this rotisserie.

If you want extreme flexibility using your Weber charcoal grill then this rotisserie unit is a must.
The advantages to owning this rotisserie are as follows:
1) Size does not matter. I’ve cooked a 20 pound turkey, 10 pound rib roast, 8 pound roast beef, 16 chop pork loin, etc. all to perfection on the rotisserie.
2) The time it takes to cook the above is reduced because of the convection type heat in the kettle. Your 3 pound chicken or 12 pound capon will cook precisely to your liking without your standing over the barbeque for large amounts of time.
3) Clean up is a cinch. The electric motor slips off a bracket on the rotisserie, and the skewers and rotisserie rod can be cleaned with a regular sponge in minutes. Nothing burns or sticks to these items. The rotisserie unit itself is simply hung on a hook for future use. There is no cleaning necessary.
Enjoy it!

1.) My ring rocks back and forth on the Weber, because it doen’t seem to fit right. Apparently, the tabs on the ring were not attached evenly, and one is about 1/4 inch higher than the other. The ring was also a bit out of round, necessitating, some serious “squishing ” by me to get the lid on right. Amazingly, it doesn’t seem to effect function, but it still looks weird, and suggests that the production quality was not all that great.
2.) My coals seem to die out prety quickly, necessitating one or more re-fills of hot coals to finish a big job (like a 14 lb turkey)
At the end of the day, though it makes a pretty nice turkey, albeit with a lot of fussing. I haven’t made a turkey directly on the grill, (sans rotisserie) but I might be tempted now.
