Your own private 7-Eleven [hot dog roller] — Episode 2: In which the hand yields to powered rotation

Jeez, wasn't just this past Monday that I featured the 7-Eleven hot dog roller?

Well, guess what?

The engineers have been busy out back in the skunk works taking it to the next level.

You knew it was only a matter of time till you could have your own private 7-Eleven automatic rotating hot dog grilling station right at home.

The only thing we failed to realize was how little time it would take — but hey, this internet stuff moves really quickly, I heard, so maybe it shouldn't be such a surprise.

From the website:
