Â* "It's a napkin holder sir" . But I was pretty sure she was wrong , so
I bought it for a whole dime . Turns out I am right , it's a basket for
the rotisserie we got at another yard sale a couple three months ago .
And it looks like it's never been used - in the rotisserie , who knows
how many napkins it dispensed . I'm thinkin' about maybe doing some pork
loin steaks in it ...

One thin dime is a great price for a kotex dispenser.

I've used the rotisserie basket in my Ronco Showtime Rotisserie. Surprisingly, the darn thing works. It's surprising that the machine works at all - its build is so stupidly simple with a single heating element and no temperature control. You're supposed to stick cuts like pork chops in the basket. I stuffed a pork loin in it.

Sounds like a good buy. Not only can you do the pork steaks but it will
hold napkins to soak up the drippings.

You'd have to look far and wide to find an oven that doesn't have a way to control the temperature. With this puppy, the only controls you have is over the cooking time and turning the rotisserie on and off. It's a dirt cheap way to manufacture an oven. I suppose you could also call it a brilliant design.

Here's an idea for you. Cook anything that comes to mind. Just
don't use and herbs or spice.
In real life (no teasing), you would probably enjoy a seafood
meal at my place. I use very little seasoning for any seafood.
Most taste so delicious on their own, imo. I will cook it all a
bit though, none of this raw nonsense.

Sounds jolly good to me! Something like that would definitely be enjoyed
by us.
