What are rotisserie roasts? How can I cook one if I don't have a fancy barbecue with a rotisserie?

Barbecue Roasting

Raw RoastBeef Rotisserie roasts are beef roasts that are custom-cut for the grill, designed for perfect even cooking on the spit or by indirect heat. For Premium Rotisserie Roasts, the cooking doesn’t get any easier – just rub, roast and relax!

For value-priced Rotisserie Roasts, marinate in fridge for 12 to 24 hours before cooking for best results.

Here’s how to use indirect heat for barbecue roasting without a rotisserie.

  • Place drip pan under grill in one half of a 2-burner barbecue. Light barbecue; heat to approx. 400°F (200°C) with lid closed.

  • Turn off burner under drip pan.

  • Place roast on grill over unlit burner and roast at constant heat with lid closed.
    (For a 3-burner barbecue, place drip pan and roast in centre of barbecue.)

Resist peeking – lifting the lid lets heat escape lengthening cooking time.
