No longer! Then place it in the rotisserie for 15 minutes per pound! If, when you look at it it looks light color add 15-20 minutes ! ALWAYS USE MEAT THERMOMETER! Chicken has to be 165* F also rest it on clean plate when done for 15-20 minutes and that will raise temp also 5-10 *F ! It will be perfect if you do these steps!! Good luck **Q: Does this make French fries?** A: NO...this is just a rotisserie ..Just does eat.. **Q: is this an air fryer?** A: No it is not an air fryer just a rotisserie very simple to use food comes out great **Q: What series number is this? Is it the 4000?** A: Not sure , it’s a large capacity showtime . ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by K***N on 28 September 2025* Ronco small rotisserie works well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***S on 8 August 2023* Very good, thank you. This works very well. Recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by D***Z on 8 September 2023* My parents gave me an old Ronco rotisserie years ago. I believe it was one of the very early models when they were sold via Infomercials on late night TV. It was one of the best Ronco inventions that was ever sold on those infomercials! The plastic base finally cracked to the point where I couldn't use it anywhere. I had fixed it once, but the glass door would no longer stay on and was unfixable. This is one of those kitchen appliances that you think, "Do I really need this?" The first one was given to me so when it couldn't be used any longer I had to make a decision as to whether I should spend $100 to replace it. The answer was 'yes'! This rotisserie makes cooking a chicken so delicious, so juicy and so easy that I couldn't imagine just roasting a chicken in the oven, again. The spits are sharp and easily fit into the chicken and onto the gears which rotate the chicken. There is a rotisserie function or just a rotate function (without heat). My model has a dial to set the temperature (figure 15 min/lb for the chicken). The instructions say that the spits can hold two chickens but the one time I tried two chickens they were too big and didn't rotate properly. I also cooked a boneless beef roast that was around 5lbs and it came out incredible and medium rare. You can also rotisserie a small turkey. I had done that once and it was also amazingly juicy. The product comes with a base on which to put the spits after cooking so you can slice beef, but I have never used it. The pan and pan top (onto which the grease drips) is easy to clean if you line the pan with aluminum foil, first. When my food is finished cooking and I've taken it out of the rotisserie, I clean the rotisserie right away, as it's much easier when everything is hot. As the unit cools down a bit, I take glass cleaner to clean the inside of the glass that usually has grease spatters. The product also comes with rubber/vinyl heatproof gloves to use to remove the spits from the rotisserie after the food is done cooking. I think the original was built a bit better than this, but that's usually the case as years go on, companies design products to be made less expensively. Even with this being slightly less impressive than the original model, I will continue to use on a regular basis. If you like rotisserie chicken from Costco, imagine having the chicken come out JUST as juicy at home with your own concoction of rub ingredients!! ## Frequently Bought Together - Ronco 5500 Series Rotisserie Oven, Stainless Steel Countertop Rotisserie Oven, 3 Cooking Functions: Rotisserie, Sear and No Heat Rotation, 15-Pound Capacity - Rotisserie Elastic and Cotton Blend - Stretchy Twine - Food Grade - Heat Safe - Cooking Ties - Poultry Loops - 50 Pack - McCormick Culinary Rotisserie Chicken Seasoning, 24 oz - One 24 Ounce Container Chicken Seasoning Rub to Create Authentic, Slow Roasted Rotisserie Flavor --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/504438330-5500-series-rotisserie-oven-stainless-steel-countertop-rotisserie-oven-3](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/504438330-5500-series-rotisserie-oven-stainless-steel-countertop-rotisserie-oven-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
