Kittencal’s Rotisserie Chicken for the Grill (Or Small Turkey) 🔗

This is the way I do my rotisserie chicken on my outdoor grill, and I most always do two or three whole chickens, you may use a larger roaster chicken in place of the fryers or even a small turkey but cooking time will need to be increased, I have stated to cook until internal temperature reaches 180 degrees, I most always remove slightly before that as the chicken/s will continue to cook after removing, I use seasoned salt but white salt will do just fine 🙂
