Barbecue roasts are a huge part of outdoor cooking culture in Australia and New Zealand. Australians

were introduced to the magic of the outdoor barbecue roast on the Weber

believe there is still no better way to cook a leg of lamb, roast a beautiful Christmas turkey or crackle an

amazing pork roast. Your Spirit

ham, and even perfect pizzas using the indirect method on your barbecue.

Preheating for roasting:

Whenever you use your Spirit for roasting, it is

important that you preheat the barbecue first,

with the lid closed. Like a convection oven, the

barbecue should be hot when you put your food

in to achieve the best results.

To preheat your Spirit for roasting:

1. Check that all burner control knobs are in the off

position and check that there is sufficient gas in

your bottle (for LP models).

2. Open the lid.

3. Turn the gas supply on at the source.

4. Light all three main burners according to the

instructions in the owner's guide.

5. Turn the centre burner to LOW (L) and close the

lid. Preheat the barbecue with the two outside

burners on HIGH (H) and the centre burner on

LOW for 10 minutes.

Roasting:

1. After preheating for 10 minutes, your barbecue

is ready to cook. Turn the centre burner to OFF and

turn the two outside burners to TWO NOTCHES

GREATER THAN MEDIUM, which is the roasting

setting (pictured).

2. Open the lid and place your food directly on the

grill above the centre burner.

3. Close the lid and cook for the estimated cooking

time.

Note: Your Spirit will perform at its best when

you let natural convection do its work under

the lid. Try to resist the temptation to open the

lid unnecessarily. Your food cooks faster, more

evenly and with more flavour if you leave the lid

closed as much as possible. As your food will cook

using indirect heat when roasting, there is no need

to turn the food during the cooking time.
