A manually-manipulatable device for supporting and rotating a number of hot dogs above the surface of a grille during a cooking operation. The device is equipped with balancer elements that maintain the device in a stabilized condition on the grilled surface in spite of cantilever forces imposed by the supported hot dogs. An elongated handle is rotatably attached to a housing that mounts a number of rotary hot dog grippers. A gear mechanism within the housing transmits a drive force from the handle to the hot dog grippers.
