Style Poultry Infusion Roaster

Used the previous version of this improved roaster. Used in bbq restaurant…secret is to use soaked wood and after shredding chicken, pour juices back on meat. And the chicken doesn’t sit in the juice while cooking. Everyone who has tried this has said it’s the best pulled meat they’ve ever had. Other roasters do not collect juice as effectively as this. Perhaps part of my secret is the dried Patrick Mahomes dna from sideline towels that’s incorporated into my rub. Lol

This thing is totally awesome! Now I just need a bigger version for Turkey. Its the best beer can chicken I've ever made. Love the cavity compartment for liquids and the juice tray at the bottom. Now THAT is great and for Is awesome for gravy and to keep the chicken Hastings in the steam if it's own juices.

Chicken cooks well in the Weber Deluxe Poultry Roster and I appreciate the easy clean-up afterwards. You still get a nice smoke over the chicken if you use wood chips or chunks. The drippings collected in the bottom of the roaster can be used to make a sauce to serve with the chicken (lemon, salt, pepper, garlic, and rosemary or other herbs).

Excellent product ... cooked well the chicken With the Weber Grill and the taste was great

Whole chickens' crispy skin and moist meat.easy to clean

OMG! This made perfect Roast Chicken! Extremely Easy to use and when done the Chicken slid right off the stand! Easy to clean up as well! I smoked a 6.5 lb chicken in indirect heat at 350 in 50 Minutes! It was the most juicy, tender and Crispy skin chicken I ever made and I’m in my late 60’s and made a lot of chicken in my life. It was a beautiful mahogany color when done. I used white wine instead of beer. Can’t wait to make another one!

This a great item does chicken real good with a great beet/wine infusion. Should have a bigger area to hold more liquid

I've been doing "drunken" chickens on the grill for years, up to three at a time on occasion, using beer-can holders. The chickens always came out great, but handling them both before and after roasting was always a pain. So I was always on the lookout for a better way to do this. When I saw this item, I decided to buy it, in part because it had a lot of positive reviews, but also because the design looked to be much less cumbersome than beer-can holders Also, with this roaster, I could cook with wine or something else not normally sold in a can. I did my first drunken chicken with it today (a Sunday) and was more than pleased with how everything went. Getting the chicken set up was a snap, due to the removable infusion cone. I found that inserting the cone into the chicken and then setting the chicken together with the cone onto the roaster was easier than trying to set the chicken on the cone while it was sitting on the roaster. While the grill was heating up (400 degrees), I rubbed down the roaster's ceramic surfaces with canola oil, filled the center of the roaster with regular beer (hint: let the beer come up to room temperature before pouring it into the roaster), and set the chicken in place. After popping the infusion cap in place and giving the old clucker a thorough rub-down with oil oil and seasonings, it was grill-time. The design of this roaster makes transporting the chicken to the grill easy—just pick up the roaster by the ends and set it on the grates (as near to center as possible for even roasting). I roast the chicken with the end burners lit and the center burner off, the so-called indirect heating method—you do not want a burner lit that is directly under the roaster!. After a little more than an hour on the grill, the chicken was ready and looked fantastic. Unlike in the past with the beer can holders, which required that I lift the chicken with some forks to get it off the grates, this time I merely used some oven mitts to pick up the roaster, Removing the chicken from the roaster itself was a snap, and before long, dinner was served. The chicken was perfect in all respects and I was able to make a tasty gravy from the drippings that collected in the roaster's base. As for clean-up, the roaster can go into the dishwasher. If you like to roast chickens this way and are not using this product, you don't know what you are missing. This roaster is well worth the price. I plan to buy a second one for occasions when I need to roast two chickens. I recommend this product.

Perfect can chicken.....every time. Plus the design makes clean up a breeze.

The chicken bumps up against the interior of the lid. This happens with a small to medium chicken and just the one-position rack that is provided. I was able to get the lid on, but only by pressing down a bit on the chicken, so that it tipped a little sideways.
