Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Rotisserie Chicken.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the necessary ingredients for your delicious grilled chicken.
Step 2
Preheat your outdoor grill to a high temperature, and lightly oil the grate to ensure the chicken doesn’t stick.
Step 3
Season the inside of the chicken with a pinch of salt, then use kitchen twine to tie the legs together and secure the wings snugly against the body.
Step 4
Attach the chicken to the rotisserie mechanism and position it over the hot grill.
Step 5
Allow the chicken to cook for about 10 minutes to initiate the browning process, creating that irresistible golden crust.
Step 6
While the chicken sizzles, combine melted butter, a tablespoon of salt, paprika, and black pepper in a small bowl to create a flavorful basting mixture.
Step 7
Lower the grill heat to medium and generously baste the chicken with this buttery blend, ensuring every inch is coated.
Step 8
Close the grill lid and continue cooking, basting occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches a perfect 180°F (83°C), which should take approximately 1 to 1.
Step 9
5 hours.
Step 10
Once the chicken is fully cooked, carefully remove it from the rotisserie and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes before carving.
Step 11
This resting period allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each slice is juicy and flavorful.
Step 12
Enjoy the fruits of your labor with family and friends, and savor the delightful aroma of perfectly grilled chicken.
