I'm going to cook a duck using a rotisserie attachment for the 22 in Weber
(charcoal). I'm sort of following a recipe in Steve Raichlen's book, How to
Grill. Raichlen seems to have one stack of charcoal, while the directions
for the rotisserie seem to suggest two stacks, as in normal indirect
cooking. Also, the directions state that the grill is to be covered during
cooking, while Raichlen's instructions are unclear. Has anyone done a duck
(or any poultry) on a rotisserie? Tell me how you've done it. I'm putting
it on in two hours, so I need help quickly. Thanks.

I've only done duck on my Kamado, using one of those chicken stand thingy.
That worked out quite tasty.

Well, I'm past the two hours so you probably have results already. I do
chicken all the time. Just keep a medium fire and let it turn. Yes, keep it
covered. Easy as can be for great results.

I did coals on one side only, and it came out fine. The duck was done in 1
1/2 hrs.

Glad it worked out OK. Timing sounds about right. Now that you have some
experience it is time to try other things. I like to do a boneless rib eye
roast that way, pork loins, etc. .

You want some direct exposure to the coals to get radiant heat. That is what
makes the outside so nice.
