Difficulty removing meat from spits
Removing meat from a traditional spit rotisserie can be challenging, especially if it's tightly secured or stuck. Here's how to troubleshoot and solve this issue:
- Let the meat rest: Allow the meat to rest for 10-15 minutes after cooking. This helps relax the fibers and reduces the risk of tearing the meat while removing it.
- Rotate and slide the meat: Gently rotate the spit while pulling the meat off. Use a pair of heat-resistant gloves or tongs to get a good grip on the meat.
- Clean the spit rod before cooking: Always clean the spit rod thoroughly before using it. A clean rod reduces the likelihood of the meat adhering to the surface.
