Abstract

Apparatus for a vendor's cart has hot and cold water storage tanks, a hand-washing sink, a substantially cylindrical oven-housing enclosed by end walls, an access door, and a tubular, vented armature assembly. The armature assembly is mounted between the end walls to rotate about a horizontal axis and a burner extends axially through the end wall to project a flame into the armature interior and force heated gases through armature vents into the oven-housing interior. A plurality of food product receiving baskets mounted on spaced apart horizontal axes rotate relative to the armature assembly, and a shaft extending axially through the opposite oven end wall rotates the armature.
