Rotisserie is a French term that refers to a cooking equipment that slowly rotates meat or other foods in front of a heating element. It is a device which contains a spit with prongs. Food (usually meat or poultry) is impaled on the the spit, fastened securely then cooked. Most rotisseries are motorized so they automatically turn the food as it cooks.
Moreover, it is cooking device that is built to hold food items, such as meat, poultry and vegetables securely while being slowly rotated, continuously over hot coals or heated burners.
It is also a style of roasting where meat is skewered on a spit and revolves over a flame or other heat source. The rotation cooks the meat evenly in its own juices and allows easy access for continuous basting if desired. It also means roasted on a spit.
