What Others Say
Great addition to "tools" used in food preparation
I purchased this item because I have a relatively small wall oven. My normal roasting pan barely fits inside the oven and then, of course, nothing else will fit until the turkey is done. I was surprised to find, or not find, a product like this in my local stores, so was quite pleased to discover it on Amazon. Turkey turned out excellent today, and I am looking forward to other uses already. Perhaps I can finally cook a beef roast that will come out not seeming to be boiled, fried, or fossilized! The only downside is the storage issue. If you have little space you will need to be creative w/regard to how & where to stash the box until the next time you want to use it. I love it and am very pleased w/my purchase!
Steaming is essentially how this works....
Purchased the roaster to cook a turkey at Thanksgiving to free up oven space. Baking off the chemical smell for 1 hour or so according to manufacturer's direction prior to using is necessary This unpleasant odor will be gone forever. Know that cooking anything in a roaster is essentially steaming your food therefore not the preferred way to roast anything. However,if you use a meat thermometer and cook until the turkey breast reads 155*, then REMOVE your turkey, loosely cover with foil watching the internal temperature rise to 165* it will come out fine. Gravy always helps! Though it is possible to overcook in an oven, too, it is very easy to do in the electric roaster. On the website www.ochef.com will give you some specific instructions ...

A necessary appliance
I couldn't do without Rival RO230-C 22-QT STAINLESS STEEL ROASTER OVEN especially on holidays. Very few people have enough ovens to handle all the roasting, baking and heating that goes on at that time. I cooked a large prime rib in mine at Christmas and a large turkey at Thanksgiving and it was a life saver. At other times I've put in pies to bake or casseroles to bake while my regular oven was available for other things.
