Gochujang Chicken cooking in Rotisserie Basket on Que-Tensils Riser 

METHOD

Place the marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix well, then add chicken and coat evenly. 

Marinate the chicken for 2-6 hrs in the refrigerator.

Once marinated, light some coals (approx 1/2 chimney). We use lump charcoal for this type of cooking as it has amazing flavour and great heat for grilling.

While the coals are heating up set your Weber Go Anywhere and Que-Tensils Royale Riser up for rotisserie cooking.

Add the marinated chicken to your Que-Tensils rotisserie basket or rotisserie skewer. 

Keep any of the leftover marinade for basting during the cook.

Add the lit coals into the Weber Go-Anywhere in your preferred way (we use the Que-Tensils Charcoal Baskets for better control), add the Royale Riser and open all vents on the base and lid.

Pop the lid on and let it heat up evenly for 5-10min.

Once this is at temperature you are ready to add the rotisserie with the chicken and add any smoking wood if you choose.

Cook until golden and to at least 175f internal temperature.

If your BBQ is running hot, knock back the vents to suit.

Once cooked, serve with the gochujang sauce drizzled liberally and add the chopped coriander and spring onion.

Don't forget to add the lid back on the bbq and close all the vents
