Weber 2290 22-1/2-Inch Charcoal Kettle RotisserieWeber 2290 22-1/2-Inch Charcoal Kettle Rotisserie
Buy new: $96.62 / Used from: $141.99
Get the most from your 22 1/2" Weber Kettle Grill! I really enjoy using this rotisserie. It's really great for chicken, pork roasts, and prime rib. I have threaded ribs on the spit rod, but only 1 rack will fit which is fine for my small household. I removed the breast plate from the slab to even it out a bit.

This works great with the rotisserie for my Weber Kettle Grill. The basket is chrome plated, not stainless steel but I don't find it to be flimsy. I use it for fish, veggies, and managed to fit a half a slab of ribs into it.

I like to put one on when dumping coals from the chimney starter. For that purpose they could stand to be a little longer. Otherwise, they are great when handling hot items from the grill or in the kitchen.

The T-Brush works much better than the traditional grill brush in that more surface area can be covered. The shorter brush is sturdier than the long one. I use the short one on the Baby Q and my Sportsman Grill.
