Mine is a Showtime, "Set it, and forget it" one too!!

LOVE IT!!
Came with kabob rods, spit rods (for turkeys, chicken and such), and a basket, which I've used for many things.
In the basket I've made: chicken breasts, chicken legs, shrimp, hamburgers, pork chops, even steaks...
On the spit rods I've made: A turkey breast that turned out GORGEOUS (all browned on the outside!!), whole chickens...never tried a pork loin, but that sounds like it would be great!!
As for recipes, my unit came with a recipe book with about 15 recipes in it - but I've never tried any of them. I like to inject my "yardbird" with a melted butter/garlic/onion powder mix, and then do a rub of assorted spices on the outside as well. (Especially lots of SAGE!! Love sage on poultry!!) And for the shrimp I've used an olive oil and spices marinade - or butter - including minced garlic, lemon juice, and Old Bay!! YUM!!
Steaks are always the same: Toss around in Dales Steak Seasoning for a bit and that's IT!! (Doesn't take long!! It's a highly concentrated liquid.) Find it in the BBQ sauce aisle. AWESOME STUFF!! HIGHLY recommend it!!
I have a question though. I've used up all my ties, but the instruction book says I can also use "string". Does that mean I can use any old string? Or does it have to be a special kind of string? TIA...
Good luck on whatever you cook!! Let us know how it turns out!!
