A rotisserie self-basting drum is designed to allow a user to cook rotisserie style meat at home without using a large, commercial built oven. The device may be made of stainless steel or other suitable material. A series of channels are formed into a shell to collect cooking juices that fall from a cooking food item during a cooking cycle. The rotating drum transports the juices from the bottom of the food item to the top of the food item where the juices spill from the channels onto the food item for basting. The drum may be in one section or two sections latched together that slide over a spit containing the food item.
