That IS a nice little tut Dave. i wish it were in a PDF form so i could print it and hang it inside a cupboard door. I'll never remember that when I want it. When I put a chicken or turkey in my Showtime rotisserie, no matter how much kitchen twine I use it still flops all over as if it were epileptic.
This needs to be stickied somewhere.

Thanks

Click on it and add it to your "Favorites". I just did so I can remember for T-Day.

I have the same issue. My fix was to insert the stickes throught the bird then tie it up however. Trick is to tie the legs to the bars. It still flops but not as much. I love the showtime. Bought the big one. Though it is down till i get a new door my dad opened my truck door when we moved and the door of the showtime floped off and feel downand broke

Tie it the way he showed in that video and that turkey won't flop at all . . . well unless it shrinks a bit on the forks . . . but the legs and wings won't go anywhere.

Here's the first one I did after 3-1/2 hours on the rotisserie



Here's the thread link if you want to take a look. It's actually pretty easy to tie too.
