Sadly for the title, I think the word you were looking for is "gimbal," not "gyroscope." A gyro rotates stably on a single axis. Your cooker "tumbles" on three axes at once. A gyroscope specifically prevents tumbling.

Doesn't a gimbal specifically keep the target object in a consistent orientation? This seems to function as an anti-gimbal
Admittedly this is a play on words, fair point! Gimbaled Gyro Sandwiches would be a better title
