GRILLED ROTISSERIE TURKEY WITH STUFFING
We removed the hassle of constant basting from the Thanksgiving equation by popping the turkey on a rotisserie. As it rotates, it bastes itself to juicy, smoky perfection, plus the stuffing underneath catches all the flavorful drippings.

Steps:
- For the turkey: Prepare a grill fitted with a rotisserie attachment according to the manufacturer's instructions for cooking over medium-high heat.
- Truss the turkey with butcher's twine so it is compact, then mount the turkey on the rotisserie spit. Push in the spit forks so they are very secure; tighten the screws well.
- Mix together the sugar, paprika, 2 tablespoons salt and 1 tablespoon pepper in a small bowl until combined. Rub the turkey all over with oil and sprinkle with the seasoning. Place the spit on the rotisserie. If you are using a large kettle-style charcoal grill, position a 9-by-13-inch disposable aluminum pan under the turkey. If you are using a multi-burner gas grill, position a 9-by-13-inch disposable aluminum pan or a half-sheet pan under the turkey, depending on the clearance between the bird and the grill grates; if necessary, remove the grill grates and place the pan on the bars below. Cover the grill and cook until the skin starts to brown slightly, about 20 minutes. Uncover the grill, drizzle the turkey slowly with the melted butter as it turns, then cover the grill and continue to cook for another 40 minutes.
- For the stuffing (see Cook's Note): Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sage, thyme, celery, onions, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat.
- Beat the eggs with the parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread, then pour in the vegetable-broth mixture and toss to combine.
- After the turkey has been roasting for 1 hour, uncover the grill and carefully spoon the stuffing into the pan under the turkey. Cover the grill and continue to cook until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 165 degrees F and the stuffing is golden on top and hot throughout, another 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes; remove the stuffing earlier if it starts to brown too quickly on the bottom. Remove the turkey from the spit and let rest for 30 minutes before carving. Keep the stuffing warm until ready to serve.
ROTISSERIE TURKEY
To properly grill a turkey using a rotisserie the unit must be positioned so the heat source is never directly under the bird. The indirect heat will allow the interior portions of the meat to cook thoroughly before the exterior becomes overdone. Preheating must be done before rotisserie grilling your turkey. A 12 to 14 pound bird is the maximum weight that can be accommodated on a standard rotisserie unit. The turkey must be attached securely to the spit assembly making sure it does not slip on the spit as the rotisserie rotates. The turkey must be trussed properly so the wing and legs don't get caught as it turns. The turkey must be balanced on the rotisserie unit for if not it will not turn and burn out the motor. A turkey intended for rotisserie grilling can not be bread stuffed. The slower cooking time may not kill harmful bacteria as rapidly as with oven roasting. Check for doneness with a meat thermometer before removing the turkey from the heat source.

Steps:
- Mix together seasonings and rub inside and on the surface of cleaned and dried turkey. Can be done the night before to let the seasoning permeate the meat.
- Stuff turkey with the apple and onion and place securely on rotisserie skewer.
- Slide one pair of prongs onto the spit and then push the spit and prongs into the turkey. Slide the other set of prongs on the opposite side of the spit and insert the prongs into the turkey.
- Tighten the wing nuts to keep the turkey firmly in place on the spit.
- Now truss the turkey. Tie the ends of the legs together with string.
- Tie a string close around the turkey at the meaty part of the legs to keep them close to the body.
- Again tie a string around the wings and breast section of the bird to prevent them from flopping about as the rotisserie rotates.
- Preheat the grill by setting all of the burners on high for a few minutes.
- The spit is then attached to the brackets of the rotisserie assembly. One end of the spit slides into the motor unit.
- Start the motor and observe the rotation to ensure that the spit is balanced and there are no obstructions.
- Place the drip pan under the turkey a size larger then the turkey to prevent flare ups.
- Place liquids in drip pan.
- The lid of the grill should be lowered and remain closed to ensure even roasting. But do check quickly that it is rotating. Adjust if needed. About 10 to 15 minutes cooking time per pound, which means that a 14 pound turkey may require 2 to 4 hours on the rotisserie.
- DON`T rely on time estimates to determine proper doneness. Always use a meat thermometer to be sure it is done.
- The internal temperature of the turkey for the breast meat must reach an internal temperature of 170ºF and the thigh meat must reach an internal temperature of 180ºF.
- Carefully remove the spit from the grill with oven mitts. Remove the spit from the turkey. Cover the turkey with foil and allow it to rest for a few minutes before carving.

ROTISSERIE TURKEY
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Mix together the seasoning.
- Rub over the surface and inside of cleaned and dry turkey. This is best done the night before to let the seasoning permeate the meat.
- Stuff the turkey with the onions, carrots, and apples and place securely on the rotisserie skewer. Test it to make sure it's well-balanced and tightly-secured. Make sure that the wings and legs are firmly tied to the bird.
- Prepare the rotisserie grill by removing grate and placing a drip pan in the center. The pan should be big enough to hold the turkey itself.
- Light the grill and let it heat up. If using a charcoal grill , make a medium fire around the drip pan. With gas, turn the burners to medium, but generally follow the manufacturer's instructions.
- Half fill the drip pan with water and place the turkey on rotisserie. The cooking times should be similar to that of a 350 F/175 C oven. You will need to use a meat thermometer to be sure of doneness.
- Remove the turkey from grill when the internal temperature reaches 185 F/85 C. The water in the drip pan is there to keep the drippings from evaporating away. If the pan goes dry add more water.
- Serve and enjoy!

KITTENCAL'S ROTISSERIE CHICKEN FOR THE GRILL (OR SMALL TURKEY)
This is the way I do my rotisserie chicken on my outdoor grill, and I most always do two or three whole chickens, you may use a larger roaster chicken in place of the fryers or even a small turkey but cooking time will need to be increased, I have stated to cook until internal temperature reaches 180 degrees, I most always remove slightly before that as the chicken/s will continue to cook after removing, I use seasoned salt but white salt will do just fine :)

Steps:
- Prepare your barbecue.
- Remove all grill racks and preheat barbecue to 450°F If your barbecue comes with a rear burner use this only.
- Place heavy duty tray (your broil pan base works well for this) directly on burner.
- Mix together orange juice, wine, water, 1/2 orange cut into slices, 2 sprigs of rosemary and garlic cloves sliced.
- Pour liquid into tray.
- Now time for the chicken or turkey.
- Rinse well and pat dry. Rub with other 1/2 orange making sure to separate skin from breast area and applying here as well. Cut remaining orange in half and put inside cavity.
- Now break up 1 sprig of rosemary placing in and around breast area. Add another 1 or 2 sprigs to inside of cavity.
- Tie legs and wings tight to body of chicken or turkey using kitchen twine (wetting twine will help keep it from burning).
- Place on rotisserie and center over tray.
- Cook for 30-40 min at 450°F then reduce heat to 300°F The juice in the drip pan will continually evaporate, rise and self baste you chicken or turkey so try not to lift the lid too often. Do not let the pan dry out, add extra liquid as needed. Cook for 18-20 min per lb. or until cooked through. I have also used lime juice, beer and different herbs and spices. Experiment with your favorites. You will not be disappointed.

ROTISSERIE TURKEY ON THE GRILL
Grilling turkey outdoors, on a rotisserie, introduces a whole new dimension to its flavor. Wrap the turkey tightly with butcher's twine to keep the wings and legs from burning.

Steps:
- Stuff both cavities of the turkey, sew up the main cavity with string, and truss tightly, forming a compact shape. Place turkey on a work surface, breast side up. Rub it with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.
- Have the rotisserie shaft fitted with one spit fork. Making certain that the turkey is centered, push the rotisserie shaft through the turkey between the legs, exiting at the neck. Slide the spit fork onto the shaft. Insert the tines of the spit forks into the turkey, screw side up, and tighten the screws to secure firmly. Set the rotisserie shaft in place in the rotisserie ring. Loosen the retaining loop at the handle, and let the counterweight assembly hang down to counterbalance the weight of the breast. The rotisserie should rotate so that the heavy side of the turkey rotates down to the bottom. Swing the counterweight assembly so that the counterweight is directly opposite the heavy side of the turkey. Tighten the retaining loop. The counterweight travel should stick out a little bit above the shaft handle and retaining loop. You may need to adjust the travel of the counterweight as the food cooks, or if the motor sounds like it is straining. Insert the pointed end of the rotisserie shaft into the motor. Set the rotisserie shaft into the ring. Cover the grill, and turn the motor on.
- Grill the turkey for 13 minutes per pound if stuffed, and 11 minutes per pound if unstuffed. To determine if the turkey is thoroughly cooked, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the inner muscle of the thigh, making certain not to touch the bone, and check that the temperature is at least 175 degrees.You will need to add more coals to the grill every 45 minutes to maintain an even temperature.
