***The Hanging and Spinning Meat Appreciation Thread***

1 hr 15mins in, you can't see the TBS but it's there. Probably another 30 mins to 1 hr till it is crispy but moist and melts in your mouth.


 
Bob your setup is sweet!



Mine was pretty simple considering I already had all of the components, just my mission was to adapt them to use them anywhere. Really happy with it considering I can use it anywhere, it really isn't that hard to have a roti setup that is decoupled from a particular grill. Just for ease of use at home, I'll probably use it mostly on that crappy firepit now.

Definitely keep an eye on home depot/lowes clearance around now. Roti parts will start to show up


Thanks. Love my Akorn for set it and walk away cooking but there's something special about being able to sit back and watch the fire and see the food cook. (With a cold drink) Perfect way to cook Cornish hens I think.
 
Update: I checked where the pieces are touching each other, raw.
So I flipped each piece so they are hanging over 2 bars. Gonna be more than an hour to finish I believe. But at least I know I can smoke a lot of bacon at one time with this rack.
 
Small Brisket in a stacked 14.5 WSM. Homemade stacker & hanging rack. Cooked between 260* - 290*. Brisket came out real good.

I'm spinning ribs over the fire right now....LOVE it! Open top fire cooking does rule.

Oh that looks FANTASTIC! I just did some in the rotisserie basket over a oak fire....OMG. I don't think i'll do tri's another way besides maybe hanging. Nice cook Robert!

If I hung in my jimmy smoker i'd sear them on the grill part like you did...perfect. With the roti I stopped it over the fire to sear on both sides.
 
ebijack, I like to shock bacon briefly on medium high heat on the stove and then put the pan in the oven--because I like bacon that's both curly and evenly cooked. It comes out great...but you've beat the living fark out of it! That's some curly bacon!
 
Trying double hung thighs. They sure shed a bunch of fat though! I always trim off that back side of hanging skin so it's only on the one side and cooked 450* Really happy with the skin on these.
When I do a party in a couple of weeks i gotta cook a bunch of these so this was the high heat test.

Oh put the skins opposite to each other.

Sure. It's made of .25" steel rod. The base circle is 13.5" diameter. The upper square is 6.25" & it's 5.12" & centered above ground zero. All dimensions are to the outside of each part.
 
I don't do any Hanging cooks yet but I do spin, here is a pic of my setup & a couple of cooks.
