I read that the "FOREMAN STAINLESS OUTDOOR PROPANE GRILL" will be available on 10/31/2007 (Halloween, hmm).   It's small and portable, but it only has 10,000 BTU's.

That's enough to roast a small dab of beans.  Any one have any idea how much?

The main question is if there is any ability to accomodate a rotisserie soas to turn the drum needed for roasting.  Are you aware if there is that ability, and if not built in, does it look like it could accomodate a rotisserie with modification?

There is a picture of it open on amazon"

Click Here (www.amazon.com)

From the picture there is a round area on the lower half of the grill that could be a rotisserie or an area to mod one in.

For those of you who are searching for it, the Model number is GP324SS.

I talked to Salton today and they said that it is a new item and has not arrived yet at their warehouse.
