Abstract

A rotisserie for use in barbecue has a rotary support, and a handle; the support has an annular trench at a tail end while the handle has a middle hole at a first section, and through holes, which communicate with the middle hole; beads are movably fitted in the through holes, and a spring-biased tube is passed around the handle to force the beads to project into the middle hole; the support is closely inserted into the middle hole with the beads engaging the annular trench to prevent the handle from separating from the rotary support; the tube has an annular slope on an inner side; when the tube is slid so that the annular slope thereof faces the beads, the beads are allowed to disengage the annular trench, and in turns, the handle can be separated from the support.
