rotisseried

Turned while cooking

Rotisseried describes food—typically meat—that has been cooked on a rotisserie, a device that slowly rotates food over a heat source for even browning: rotisseried chicken from the deli.

In slang, rotisseried describes someone overwhelmed from multiple directions at once, like meat turning on a spit: I got rotisseried in that meeting—attacked from all sides.
