'meat shop' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'to rise and rise in an unusual way' is the wordplay.
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'in an unusual way' is an anagram indicator.
'to'+'rise'='torise'
'torise' put after 'rise' is 'risetorise'.
'risetorise' anagrammed gives 'ROTISSERIE'.
