The pleasure is all mine. I have a box full in the basement. Take your
pick.

You're not supposed to clean it. Just let that brown
stuff bake on. It doesn't touch the food, so who cares?

This reminds me of an old Ann Landers column in which
a reader said she was surprised to find out that some
of her friends were cleaning the inside of the toilet
tank! The bowl, yes, but who cleans the tank? And why?
(I've only recently come around to the point of view
that the bowl should be cleaned -- but the tank? That's
crazy!)

I don't want to clean it for the pure sake of sparkly clean - I just
want to make sure that the unit does not start to smoke from anything
that is burned on.

I have cleaned the inside of a tank or two. Nothing on a regular
basis, but once in awhile I've been known to do it.

Mine is quite coated, and I've never noticed any smoke
from it. I'm sure some must be emitted while it's
getting baked on, but it's pretty stable, like an
enamel coating or something.

Okay . . . . .
 
I haven't used my rotisserie for over a year,mainly because of the
PITA of cleaning it.But,yesterday I had a small[3lb]prime rib,and
Idecided the only way to do it without getting the ends overdone was
the rotiss-it came out perfect!![brag!!]
I will dis-assemble it as much as I can,soak the pieces in the
sink,then just wipe the inside with any kitchen cleaner I have handy
and rinse it well with plain water.[Not a good idea to touch the heat
element,it will clean itself anyway.
The best food I have found for this unit is Pork Roast.it always comes
out great,but it is also the messiest thing to cook in it!!!

Would it be possible to put foil on the sides somehow?

It can get slimy and I have a kid allergic to molds. It is preventive,
more than anything.

I do not think so, but since no one here who has one seems to think it
will amount to trouble down the road, I'll leave it alone.

I want one that clicks quietly and where you can still see all the
letters and numbers. And I'll take one for Crash, too, if that's all
right. <G>

The noisy ones with missing letters and numbers are why they wound up
in the basement in the first place.

With great difficulty. That's why we don't use ours all that much. Takes
nearly as long to get the thing genuinely clean as it took to cook the
meat.

As soon as the meat is out of the ronco, put all the removable bits
(including the heat reflector) of the grill into a sink full of very hot
water and washing up liquid. Let that soak while eating. The inside and
the glass door need to be wiped down with soapy water and rinsed. The
metal (not enamelled) bits usually need attacking with steel wool.

Put a piece of foil into the drip tray before putting on the perforated
rack. That helps a little.
