ABSTRACT:
A food roasting apparatus is disclosed, comprising a pot having: a base wall and a cylindrical sidewall contiguous therewith, the base wall and sidewall defining a pot surface, the sidewall surrounding a central pot axis and extending upwardly from the base wall to terminate in a rim encircling an upper pot opening; two gas burners; a cradle for supporting the pot above the burners in selectively removable relation, with the base wall positioned downwardly from the pot opening and the pot axis angled with respect to horizontal, for rotation of the pot about the pot axis; and a motor for effecting the rotation of the pot. The cradle comprises a base having front, rear and side edges; a rear support rigidly extending upwardly from and transverse to the base, adjacent the rear edge; an arcuate front support sleeve rigidly attached to and extending frontwardly from the rear support in overlying relation to the base and substantially concentric to and beneath the sidewall, when the pot is operatively positioned; a roller mounted to the rear support for rotation about a horizontal roller axis which underlies the pot axis when the pot is operatively positioned. The motor is operatively connected to the roller to effect rotation of same. The roller has an annular surface centered about the roller axis and adapted to support a lower end of the pot, and, upon rotation of the roller, is further adapted to frictionally contact the sidewall, thereby to effect rotation of the pot.
