Rib eye roast cooked with a rotisserie

[jayfrt]

Has anybody ever grilled a rib-eye roast on a rotisserie? I know that it is not shaped the best for a rotisserie. Merry Christmas to everybody with the Texas BBQ Forum

It's on my "to-do" list. The father in law made one over Thanksgiving that turned out very very well. I'll ask him what he did when he gets back from offshore next week.

Thanks TX1911, from the lack of response I was beginning to think that it was something you don't do.

My Mother in law always used a rotisseri for a Rib eye,prime rib. She had a small rotisserie that was for the house it came out excellent every time. I think the grill on a rotissere would be great. You need to baste with the juices though.

we do one every year, this year i'm going to be overseas for christmas but there's a 5 bone rib roast in the freezer for the first sunday i'm home. I have an old Farberware countertop rotisserie that does a fantastic job. I use the spit to make holes on each end of the roast, stuff rosemary and cloves of garlic in each one then rub the whole thing down with olive oil,coarse salt and pepper, granulated garlic and a little steak rub i like. takes about 4 hours to cook but finishes with a good crispy bark on the outside and never more than medium rare in the center.

Make a good dipping sauce with creme fresh, whipping cream, horseradish and dijon mustard.

a family member recommended adding a little country style (coarse ground) mustard to the olive oil so that may get tried this year as well.
