Pork butts on roti? |
  |
|
Anyone ever tried this? I might give it a shot but don't want them to fall out after they shrink..... 
Any thoughts?

You might try a wire pan from Wally World and bent it around roast.

| Yep, you must do something. (Cheesecloth?) A fully cooked butt is enough of a challenge moving from the grill to the foil/towel cooler without falling apart. |

Anyone know this guy
I used to know a guy that went by the name Curly. Figured he was in prison or ran off with his cousin or something 
I used to think I should have the rotis, but anymore I dont think I would ever use it. The KK cooks evenly enough that I can get even browning and cooking right on the upper grill. You can see the last chicken i cooked in the everyday cooking pics thread, Its evenly golden and perfectly moist and tender, and that was done sans rotis - just drp it on the upper grate and come back in 45 minutes to rotate it if needed. And there is no bracket cleanup either  |

Yeah, I'm out now! I figured after 2 years away there'd be someone overtake my post count (other than DJ). Either I talk my head off or when I left everyone got depressed and barely posted
Honestly, the roti looks cool, and seems to be a hit with company...but it's just a toy that isn't really needed when you have a ceramic cooker.
I've got plenty of toys that I don't use often though, so don't let me put a damper on your desire to get another cool toy

Welcome back Curly [nyuck, nyuck]
Regarding the butt on the Roti - the downside of having to keep it all tied/wrapped up is the loss of bark, it all wants to stick to whatever is holding the meat together. I have not used the roti for a butt, but I did do one that was boneless and had a net on it, which destroyed most of the bark.
I suppose no one NEEDS a roti, I got it 'cause I could (what other brand "ceramic" owner can say that?)

Yeah, maybe I'll pass on the butts in the roti. I'm having 15 people over for Fathers day and thats all I need is a butt falling out and being forced to buy pizza.
I use my Roti about once a month and love it for chicken. |

Where's your recipe...I'd love to give it a shot. I love chicken...especially ceramically cooked chicken. And it's about time I got some more use of that toy
