Primo Ceramic Chicken Sitter

The Primo Ceramic Chicken Sitter stands a whole bird upright over the fire instead of laying it on its back. That one change is the point of the whole thing: fat runs down and away rather than pooling under the breast, and heat reaches every face of the bird at once rather than working through it from the top. Ceramic is the right material for a job that sits right next to the meat for the length of a cook. It warms with the grill and holds that heat steadily, so the inside of the bird gets a gentle, even source of warmth rather than a cold object in the middle of it. It is also easier to live with than the improvised approaches — nothing to open, nothing to crush, nothing that was never meant to be heated in the first place. No Primo size is named on this listing, so it is not tied to one grill in the way most Primo accessories are. For a bigger bird, the Primo Ceramic Turkey Sitter is the larger of the two. If you would rather cradle a roast than stand it up, look at the Primo V rack, and the Rib and Chicken Holder with drip tray covers ribs as well as poultry. See Primo grill accessories.
