You’ll find the full, step-by-step recipe below — but here’s a brief overview of what you can expect when you make this rotisserie chicken:

Season the chicken cavity with salt and place it on a rotisserie (tie the wings and legs if you have twine or string available). Set the grill on high and cook for 10 minutes. Turn the grill down to medium and baste with a mixture of the butter and the seasonings. Close the lid and continue cooking, basting occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.

1. Place the chicken, breast-side up, on a cutting board.
2. Pull one of the legs away from the body and slice through the meat until the hip bone is exposed. Then, pull the leg harder until the leg is detached.
3. Use your knife to separate the drumstick and thigh.
4. Pull the wing tip away from the breast until you can easily cut through the joint.
5. Slice one of the breasts away from the breastbone. Repeat with the other breast.

“This is only our second time using our grill’s rotisserie attachment for the grill,” says CHRISTINESAVILLE. “This recipe knocked the much more complex one out of the park! Delicious and easy to make! I wish I had a picture. It was perfect.”

“This is the best rotisserie chicken I’ve made, and I’ll add, also beats baked,” raves Melissa M. “Very juicy, done right, and great flavor. I put liquid smoke, pineapple juice and water in a pan underneath to add more moisture, and basted with butter and basil pesto every 30-45 min.”

“We just got a new grill along with a rotisserie,” says Dishy. “Couldn’t wait to try it out and this recipe was perfect. I even did two chickens (Doubled the recipe) at one time and they both turned out great. Very moist and flavorful!”
