ISO: Ronco Showtime Rotisserie Info
Just wondering if anyone has one of these and likes or dislikes it. One of the PT’s has been raving about his, and they have had it for quite a long time. He says it’s the best chicken ever…so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Also a lot less expensive than the money spent on those rotisserie chickens we grab and take home for quick meals and leftovers in the long run. I’ve been considering one with the $ I got for Christmas but am just not sure. There is also the space issue. He says theirs sits out since it used so often. It also has a basket that is used for fish. Not sure what else. When I look online, there are so many models also. Just perplexed and always check for input at Mimi’s. Thanks for any help. Happy New Year to all!
I have had a Ronco rotisserie for quite a few years and really love it. The chicken is excellent, but I probably have done more pork loins than chicken. For Christmas I put both a small pork loin and a beef roast on mine at the same time and they both received rave reviews. You can also do ribs, but I haven’t tried them yet.So I would give the rotisserie a definate thumbs up!!!!!!!
Thank you Intrepidgal! Your comments are so encouraging! Now I must look at the different models….I think I really may just use the money for one of these. The research will begin….tomorrow! Happy New Year and thank you again!
Sherry, let us know what you decide and how you like it if you get one. Looks great to me!
I’m going to do a little more reading about them before ordering. Somewhere I read not to buy the plastic one to get stainless… Think I’m pretty much sold on them at this point….. Will report back at some point
Hi, It is now sitting on my kitchen counter, which I totally reorganized to accomodate it. The instructions, however, state that it is not to be under any cupboards and 8 inches away from things on the top and all sides plus being set on a heat-resistant surface. Thus far, it’s unpacked and unused. One has to be home long enough to figure the thing out. It is now perplexing to know where to put it. Our intention was to have it out on the counter and use it often. I have a corridor kitchen, which is a pain anyway, and it’s not that large. The rotisserie is not small. We will probably like it once we get things figured out and arranged….I pray so! It is an adventure waiting for that first rotisserie meal!
Sherry, it would be hard to find that much space in any kitchen. I hope you get it figured out and get to try it soon.
