We've really been enjoying rotisserie chicken on my OTG of late, but getting crispy skin seems to be elusive. For whatever it's worth, I'm using an indirect coal set up with coals banked on opposite sides, and the bird is usually rubbed pretty generously with either my homemade chicken rub #2 or McCormack's BBQ seasoning.
While the chicken comes out great, as in moist all over, the skin, while a nice deep brown color just isn't crispy, even though the fat has rendered well.
I do put the cover on when the chicken is spinning-is this perhaps the reason it doesn't crisp?
