This is a photo of me and the box for a Farberware Open Hearth Grill and Rotisserie.
It is exactly 50 years ago from this upcoming Christmas Eve. I managed to inherit this grill after my grandparents passed. I love it. Here it is cooking a chicken in 2015.
We have also used it to cook sausages including at our Wassails.
There is a webpage dedicated to its use and problem solving. And the manual for it is available there too.
So I was thrilled to find this photo of me with the original box.


OMG – we had one of those too, from the 70s! I “inherited” it when my mom moved back east (due to health issues). I was living with roommates for a while, and was planning to move back east too, so told one of my roommates that she could have it when I moved/left the state. She ended up moving out first (was kind of a contentious situation at the time), and took the Farberware when she packed and left! I ended up meeting my future husband and staying in Washington, but she still had the Farberware!
That is cool that you had one too Maureen! You apparently can find them on EBay if you want another. I think it is fun.
What a neat story! The grill looks great! We’ve never had one.
Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it.
