Let \(\alpha \) be the Euclidean metric of \(\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\) and let also \(\beta \) be a \(1\)-form of constant length with respect to \(\alpha \). With this data let us consider the Minkowski \((\alpha , \beta )\)-metric. The present paper gives explicit expressions of minimal rotational hypersurfaces with respect to the Busemann-Hausdorff measure and the Holmes-Thompson measure in this Finslerian framework. As an application, the case of three dimensional Randers spaces is computed.
