Removing the Chicken from the Grill

Regarding BBQ Inc.
Once the rotisserie chicken has reached the right temperature it is time to get it off the grill. Have a hot pad or fireproof glove and a platter or cutting board ready beside the grill. Remember that the metal rod of the rotisserie is going to be about 300 degrees F when you grab it. It is easy to burn yourself so be careful.

When taking the rotisserie rod and chicken off the grill start by turning off the burners and rotisserie motor. I find it is usually easier to lift up and pull off the motor first to get it out of the way. Get a good hold of the rod on both ends and place the chicken on your platter and cutting board. I've seen many a bird fall to the ground so keep a good hold of it.
