O.K. who hasn't seen the infomercial for Ron Popeil's Showtime Rotisserie & Barbeque? We all know how to roast a whole chicken, a prime rib roast, ribs and various sizes of turkey, depending on your model. The Showtime rotisserie has been hugely successful and is found in many American homes.

But let's face it, whole chickens can be boring and who can afford to roast prime rib more than a few times yearly? Anticipating this, Ron Popeil has offered us this book as a companion to his product. I found the book on the ronco.com website and was a little hesitant as the price tag was steep for a paperback. However, if the rotisserie has changed the way you cook, this book will change the way you use the rotisserie.

There are sections for sauces, marinades and rubs. These alone will allow you to vary your meals and experiment with new flavors. The book covers appetizers, various meats and seafood, vegetables and desserts. Even chapters using the rotisserie to create salads and wraps are included to broaden your use of the Showtime. Many of the recipes incorporate the sauces, marinades and rub recipes, which are easily prepared with readily available ingredients.

If you love your Showtime rotisserie, then this will be a welcome addition. The book takes 'Set It and Forget It' to a new level of flavor and variety.

I have only had a chance to use one recipe, the BBQ Rub, and it was great. I have Celiac Disease and rarely buy cook books because there are so few recipes I can use, but I paid less that $5 for it, including delivery, so it was worth the risk. There are several rubs, all gluten free, that I will probably make too. I looked through several of the recipes and they look yummy. It has already paid for itself, but I think I will use it often.

This recipe collection is loaded with goodies. It not only complements the "Set it and Forget it" rotisserie (I have the compact model), but has recipes useful to everyone. As a recipe writer and chief cook and bottle cleaner in our household I appreciate the amount of time and expertise required to put this book together. I also appreciate Amazon's part in marketing books at a price anyone can afford. Amazon also makes it as easy as a few clicks to complete a purchase - Frank

Product arrived quickly and is just what I expected! Lots of good recipes for the rotisserie that are easy to prepare and taste great, with easy to find ingredients.

I am happy with my purchase of the Ron Popeil Rotisserie and BBQ recipe book
