It's been 4 hours since the post. I hope there is still leftovers. I'm on my way!
Welcome!
Did you bank the coals? I've found that to be generally essential to good rotisserie results to avoid over cooking the outside.
I did, yes. The outside turned out great, albeit not evenly "puffed" like I would have liked.
I actually dropped the porchetta into the coals when I was adjusting the setup for crisping the skin, but fortunately I was able to pull it out of there pretty quickly.
That must have been a heart stopping moment!
Lol yes it was. It all worked out, though!
