Do you think you can adapt a battery powered rotisserie to the poles? I just bought a battery powered rotisserie and don't want to double spend $$

Tricky. I haven't done it but you could weld the rotisserie motor to the bracket on the spindle, or fabricate new brackets to mount on the upright. Some work may be needed to grind some flat spots on the spindle to fit the drive socket on the rotisserie motor . If you did it you might be able to make modification kits and sell them to pay you for doing it.Ed

If it fits use it. I had a electric rotisserie from an old grill and if fit the rivergrille. It is a great idea to power the rotisserie than to hand crank. Good luck.

haven't tried it, but it looks like you could. Only upper element would heat..but there is a separate setting for rotisserie, apart from either the temp or broil settings, and I just checked, the spit will turn on that setting. hope that helps

I agree with Gary. We haven't tried the rotisserie feature of the Meco, but I suspect it will work well. Good sear, and it came almost totally preassembled.

The Ronco Rotisserie is a 'Piece Of Crap' and the word 'Work is objective. But the answer to the question is yes, with an adapter.

Kevin, I have the same question as I have natural gas already running my grill. If you get a reply, would you please email me @ BigDog58@gmail.com? Thanks and good luck, Big Dog

This is the best rotisserie motor I have ever used. It should have no problem turning a corn roaster!

Kalorik manufactures it. It is not better than the Ronco rotisserie. We wish we would've bought the Ronco first.

I ordered mine specifically to have a natural gas connection, if yours didn't or doesn't come with one you can get a conversion kit through Napoleon for around $50 , BTW it is the best grill available in that price range, I use it almost daily!

Hello, I have this grill and I love it, well you could also get him the portable cart that goes with this grill, the 20lb adapter hose to use the 20lb tanks instead of the 1lb tanks that cost an arm and a leg. I have the Weber Q Griddle and I freaking love it! Cookes bacon and eggs and anything else you would use a griddle for. Take care!!!! p.s. I have all these items i reccomended to you and love them all.

Yes, but only if you build your own speed reduction so the final maximum speed is around 5RPM to rotate up to 100 lbs of balanced weight. Running at a lower speed with this motor to direct drive a rotisserie system is not recommended as this motor runs at its optimal performance at 50RPM. That means if you turn the speed down with just the speed controller, the torque of this motor is not going to be strong enough to run well, especially below 10RPM.

No Idea. But as I stated in my review, this item does NOT rotate like it claims to. Please buy another product. I was at walmart the other day, and there was an attachment that attaches to a gas grill and LITERALLY rotates to give you the real rotisserie meat. Good luck.

I haven't had an electric in a long while, but from what I can remember of them, I would be very skeptical that you could adapt this to that. I would also have a little concern about too much load on the electric motor. I could be wrong, but if it were me, I would pass.

None. I spoke with a rep at Weber in June and he told me there are no current plans by Weber to build one. Bummer. I complained a lot but I doubt that it worked. This is my favorite grill. A rotisserie would make it the best ever. Lets all keep sending e-mails to Weber and complain. Maybe we can nag them into making rotisseries.Cajun Griller

Yes. Design problem but company will not admit it. The motor will stop working all together next. You can purchase 51205 25x47x15 Thrust Bearing on Amazon and get some high temp grease. I also recommend buying another motor as a back up to. You don't have to buy it from Blackstone. I have two OneGrill Cordless Grill Rotisserie Motors - 25 lb. Load W/ AC Adapter Sold by: OneGrill LLC - BBQ Products on Amazon.

Yes, assuming you have the Weber charcoal grill rotisserie, which is a metal ring that you put between the kettle base and the lid and it already comes with a motor. Or, you can make your own metal ring with heavy sheet metal and get the mount for this motor- it's a standard size. Great motor, btw!

All I know is that the directions that are given are very minimal but the time that I have use were similar to using an oven it works out for me but u have to get use to the timer the problem I have is the rotisserie I can't put the chicken in with out it flopping around even if I tie it up.

I bought the one with all of the features and am glad I did. We use the rotisserie a lot and it works great. Just be aware that you are limited to 4# on it or it gets too heavy.
