onlyfire Stainless Steel Weber Kettle Rotisserie Ring Kit Barbecue Tool Kit | For Weber 22 Inch Charcoal Kettle and Other Similar Grills, Turns Your Kettle Into A Chicken Roaster

I waited because back when I looked for a grill rotisserie attachment the only one available was Weber's and I thought it too pricey-- plus a number of reviewers weren't happy with the seal at the grill and lid. This gizmo is considerably cheaper, and boy, do I like this. It's well designed, and it works well. The first two uses I wound up with perfectly cooked whole chicken that was super moist. Now a caveat about that: if you're grilling chicken, over charcoal, whether whole or pieces, if you don't ***brine*** it first, you're asking for trouble. I brined the first (3.5 pound) chicken for two hours--and it was incredible. The second, I only had time for a one hour brine and it came out well-- but not as good (moist) as the first time. Could this gizmo be improved? Sure. And I expect they'll work on minor refinements going forward. But it's excellent. It's sturdy. It seals to the Weber grill really well. The motor is quiet--not that it matters so much right? The central spit is robust. The hardware that holds the food on the spit is well designed. The handle stays cool to the touch. Is it durable? Will the motor hold up? Who knows. My feeling is that this should be pretty long lasting. Hard to know after a couple of weeks. But out of the box this is really impressive and at a very, very, reasonable price. And remember: always brine your chicken before grilling. Follow up: I've had this nine months. I've probably used it an average of three times a month. Takeaways: ---The chickens keep on coming out...perfect. Like "Wow, dear, this is really good!" perfect. ---It wasn't up to handling out Thanksgiving turkey: 24 pounds. Maybe if I fooled with it more, and got the balance jussst right, maybe. But it didn't seem worth it. However: the rotisserie ring? Made grilling the turkey easier than ever. Really nice! ---Motor is still fine, nothing is broken or rusted or malfunctioning in any way. A great addition to an already great grill. Hat's off, and very impressed!

Works beautifully! Fits real nice and the motor is very nice and strong.

I have used this rotisserie kit of making chickens, turkey and roasts on weber kettle and all of of them have come out perfectly. I like the fact that motor is heavy duty and it had no issue handling two chickens and even a 15lb turkey. In terms of fit and finish, I like the black color as it matched my weber kettle. It sits on top of the web kettle and I did not have any issue with stability even when cooking heavier meats. One con is that since it sits on top of the kettle, it does not create a perfect seal so you do lose some hear through there and the hole for the spit. To overcome that I used heavy duty gasket tape at the bottom so when it is installed, it creates better seal. The spit that comes with it works great but the forks have small screws so make sure that you tight them with pliers so that they do not come lose during cooking, which happened to me multiple times.

**Update 2023. I added a couple tabs internally so the ring would not move as noted in my original review. Thankfully, I had some scrap material and a home workshop, so it cost nothing but a few minutes of cutting, drilling, and a couple rivets. MUCH better now. Everything needed was supplied and the parts are all sturdy enough, no complaints there and I'm happy with the cost (less than half of the Weber brand one). However, the one shortcoming of sorts (compared to the Weber brand one) is that the rotisserie ring sits on top of the kettle base and settles over it, like your top normally does. There is no positive engagement into the kettle base (like the Weber brand), which means you have to be careful when working when working with your grill (adding coals, adding food, etc). I was taking the top off ours with the grill at 350+ (rotisserie in place, motor placed on, no meat on the spit) and I wasn't careful enough, causing the rotisserie to tilt and start sliding off. Thankfully I had gloves on and could grab it. It made me a lot more careful when placing the chicken in the grill after. I'll add some tabs to the ring bottom inside so it holds in the kettle base better before using it next time. Good purchase overall, fair enough price.

With some trepidation after reading some negative reviews, I went ahead and ordered the Onlyfire black metal. It came very well packed, no deformities, and in short order. Some reviews mentioned warpage, poor fitting of either the ring to the kettle or the kettle cover to the ring. I experienced none of this. In fact, everything fit perfectly. Haven't used the motor yet, but test run seemed fine. All in all, a very good product at an amazing price.

I made sure that I got the model that fits over the bowl of the Kettle. It’s a little loose fitting, but it’s easy enough to get the lid, bowl, and ring aligned. The motor seems pretty robust, and it has an integrated heat shield in addition to the shielding of the standoff bracket. My spit forks look like the ones that Only Fire sells as stainless, and I believe that’s a feature of the stainless rotisserie ring package. The thumbscrew used to set the offset of the counterweight is a little less than easy to get tight, but it’s still functional and very easy to use otherwise. The only thing I see that’s less than perfect in the build quality is that the spit rod didn’t get completely ground sharp - it’s got a roughly 1/8” / 3 mm flat instead of a sharp point. I can still push it through a piece of meat, but it takes some effort. Overall, the Only Fire stainless rotisserie ring is a great value for a functional unit.

All last summer I rotisseried 3-4 times a week. Food comes out perfect with my wireless thermometer. I couldn't get over the fact that it fit perfectly over my 10 year old big Smokey Joe. I intend to use it more this summer and into Autumn.

Cooks better rotisserie chicken than Costco.

Excelente producto, no tuve mas que sazonar y esperar 45min, el motor hace todo el trabajo y queda al cien, el aditamento es marca OnlyFire que es una gran marca de productos para asar y demás pero es exactamente la misma medida que para el Weber de 22’ y sale como 2mil pesos más baratos que el de marca Weber, y aparte este es de acero inoxidable.

Excelente calidad de producto

I’m extremely happy with the Only Fire Stainless Steel Rotisserie Ring Kit for my Weber 22" kettle. The fit is perfect, the stainless steel is solid and durable, and the whole setup feels very stable once assembled. The motor runs smoothly and quietly, and the rotation is consistent — ideal for roasting whole chickens, roasts, or even larger cuts. Heat circulation is excellent, and the results are juicy with perfectly crispy skin. Assembly was straightforward, and the ring seals very well with the kettle so you don’t lose heat. Cleanup is also easy thanks to the stainless-steel construction.

I use this on my Kamado Kettle Joe. It fits perfectly. I purchased this to spin my thanksgiving turkey and it worked awesome. Best turkey I have done. I added the felt tape to the rim so it would get a good seal, not sure that is necessary as there are holes where the pole goes through. Motor spins well and everything feels like good quality.

Very happy with this purchase. Finally took it for a test drive and was very impressed with the fit and the smoothness of the rotisserie motor. A little tricky to get the heat right. The extra 2 holes for the spit to go through add a lot more air flow in the weber kettle. I played with it and found the lower vent open all the way and the top about halfway kept a consistent 350 heat. Just used some banked royal oak briquettes. It took about 2 hours to cook a 4 pound chicken. I think next time I would use the grill baskets to have heat on either side and it might cook faster. But omg the chicken was the best I've ever tasted! And I've made a lot of chickens on the bbq. I have a rotisserie for my gas grill and it doesn't even compare. The meat was juicy and succulent. My wife and 2 toddler twin boys couldn't even get enough of it! Pros -Ring construction is very good. Nice welds. -The ring fits very snug I didn't see any leaks except through the holes for the spit. -Rotisserie motor has a long power cord which is nice. Probably 8 feet. -Rotisserie motor seems to be good quality and worked flawlessly for me. -Half the price of the major brand ring. Cons -Ring is pretty thin and might bend if dropped. -The screws that adjust the counterweight and hold the spit to the ring slot are hard to tighten. I switched them out for some 10 mm hex head bolts and problem solved. -Tricky to adjust heat but not an Achilles heel by any means. You probably could tighten the adjustment screws with pliers and I would reccomend it. Otherwise a very nice addition to your weber kettle. Now I'm looking forward to trying a turkey on this thing and lots of other meats.
