bodypoet, I have a George Foreman Rotisserie Oven, and I love it. I use it all the time. My roasted chickens and turkey breasts come out golden brown and crispy all the time. When I roasted them in my conventional oven, the top part would be overcooked and dry, and the bottom part of the bird would still be rubbery. I’ve cooked vegetables and steaks which came out very well. The only caveat I have is if you want to cook barbecued ribs. You have to thread these flimsy skewers into a slot which takes awhile. Roasts whether pork, lamb or beef also come out beautifully. I think you will be very happy with this oven.
Okay, I’m confused. Does George Foreman even have a Rotisserie? The only one I’ve ever seen advertised was the Ronco Showtime hawked by Ron Popeil. bodypoet’s link mentions the Showtime, but no Foreman.
The ad is for a “Baby George” George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Roasting Machine.
$59.99, and you recieve a $15 gift certificate for meat. Now I need to do some comparison shopping and see if the price is a good one.
We’re all about big pieces of meat here. My husband and two oldest boys eat enough for six grown men, and I can just about keep up with them. We also have a freezer full of beef, and oh! how I HATE cooking roasts.
I don’t know how this one heats (will have to check), but it does have a horizontal bar.
I suggest that you look for the full-sized model that will handle large cuts of meat suitable for your manly men, bodypoet. The full-size model will hold up to a 12 pound turkey, large roasts and several burgers (check the advertising). The smaller model is suitable for a single person or a couple of people. I like that you can pull off parts of the oven and give it a thorough cleaning, also.
