Well first you cannot do a bone in leg with the spinner. With the bone out
yes I gain a more even browning using the spinner no grill marking etc.
Taste is fine either way mostly cosmetic. Yes I use the smoker box and I use
only 1 or 2 burners never the center always the outside burners. I also have
a unit with infrared burner for rotis but frankly it doesn't do alot for me.
The genesis maked the best spun food I've ever done. The IR gives you nice
esthetics but that's about it. THe only "trouble" I've ever had spinning on
the genesis is with heavy items as the motor isn't terribly strong.
