Why should you buy weber 2290 ?
- Complete Set With Motor and Accessories
The package includes a heavy‑duty electric motor, shaft, and two spit forks, so you don’t have to buy extra parts separately — everything you need to start rotisserie cooking is included.
- Evenly Cooked & Juicy Results
By rotating food slowly over charcoal heat, the rotisserie ensures even cooking and self‑basting, which helps retain juices and flavor — especially helpful for larger cuts that can dry out on traditional grills.
- Porcelain‑Enameled Ring Elevates Rotisserie
The included porcelain‑enameled ring elevates the spit above the cooking grate so there’s optimal space for the food to turn freely and cook evenly without interfering with the charcoal.
- Compatible With 22‑Inch Weber Kettle Grills
It’s designed to fit most 22‑inch Weber charcoal grills, making it a great add‑on if you already own a compatible kettle and want to expand your cooking techniques.
- Great for Entertaining & Special Meals
Rotisserie cooking is ideal for family meals and entertaining because it lets you prepare larger, impressive dishes — like whole roast chickens, lamb, or rib roasts — with minimal hands‑on effort.
Frequently Asked Questions by customers
-

The kit includes a heavy‑duty electric motor, rotisserie shaft, and two spit forks — everything you need to set up rotisserie cooking on your grill.
-

This rotisserie is strong enough to rotate whole chickens, ribs, and similar larger cuts of meat, creating self‑basted, evenly cooked results. User feedback highlights good performance on sizable roasts.
-
How do I clean the rotisserie parts?
The shaft should be hand‑washed, while the spit forks are dishwasher safe — making cleanup easier after your cook.
-
Does the rotisserie require a counterbalance or special setup?
No counterbalance is required due to the design of the motor and spit system, although some users recommend trussing and centering heavier pieces of meat for smooth rotation.

Are there any common fit or design issues?
Some users note that the rotisserie ring can fit loosely on certain grill bases, leaving a gap — so positioning and stability may vary slightly by kettle model.
