Roasted chicken is a preferred option by many of us. The Ronco Rotisserie and BBQ Oven gives you the luxury of doing it all at home. Slowly rotate the spit or skewer as the poultry cooks. The chicken to render its fat and baste the meat as it spins.
Excess fat will drip below, just like on a gas grill. This results to a roasted chicken with lower fat content but bursting with flavors. This is what is called rotisserie chicken.
Chicken and other types of poultry are the most obvious choices for rotisserie cooking. But you can go beyond bird and cook pork tenderloins and vegetables the same way too. In fact, vegetable kebabs, shawarma, and whole pork roasts are all inspired by rotisserie cooking.
Love the idea of a home rotisserie but short on countertop space? Then meet your new kitchen favorite, the Ronco Digital Showtime Rotisserie and BBQ oven, the compact version of the Ronco classic.
