CAJUN ROTISSERIE CHICKEN WITH ROASTED MIXED VEGETABLES ON A DCS GAS GRILL

Steps:

• Large chop the peppers, carrots, onion, and potatoes and fine mince the garlic.
• Whisk together all the marinade ingredients.
• Mix together half of the melted butter, half of the garlic, salt and pepper, and all of the vegetables, and toss into large mixing bowl until evenly coated.
• Remove chicken from packaging and discard innards.
• Rinse chicken with cool water, then pat dry.
• Truss the chicken tightly with twine then season the entire chicken including the cavity with the Cajun seasoning.
• If possible, you can even gently lift the skin of the chicken and apply some seasoning under that as well.
• Skewer the chicken with the rotisserie rod, and secure with the rotisserie forks.
• Now start preheating your rotisserie burner on medium to high heat for about 15 min and remove the grill grates.
• Once preheated, pour vegetables in large roasting pan and place pan on the layer below where the grates were.
• Attach the rotisserie rod to the motor and set to rotate at a medium pace.
• Cook with grill lid down.
• Heat the rest of butter and garlic in a sauce pan.
• I used the handle end of a wooden spoon and tied thyme sprigs to that end, using this as a basting brush.
• After the first 30 min of cooking, baste the chicken, and every 15 minutes after.
• Rotate the roasting pan at the 45 minute mark for evenness of cooking.
• For the last 20 minutes of cooking, turn on the lower burners of the grill to low to help finish cooking the vegetables.
• With a meat probe, check the temperature of the chicken at the thickest part.
• Once the temperature reaches 165 degrees, it is done.
• Serve and enjoy!

• Season the inside of the chicken with a pinch of salt. Place the chicken onto a rotisserie and set the grill on high. Cook for 10 minutes.

Close the lid and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, basting occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees F (83 degrees C) when taken in the thigh with a meat thermometer.
