Customer Reviews of Rival RO230-C 22-QT STAINLESS STEEL ROASTER OVEN
Customer Rating: Summary: Great addition to "tools" used in food preparation Comment: 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! Customer Rating: Summary: Steaming is essentially how this works.... Comment: 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 about self-basting turkeys or not. They recommend smaller turkey's if it is a self-basting one, and watch the temperature as the self-basting turkeys have more moisture to steam a bit faster. All in all I am glad I purchased the unit as I needed some space to prepare an entire meal. I look forward to using other items in the roaster. One thing, though it does become hot enough on the outside surface to burn when touched, surprisingly it does not heat up the kitchen like an oven.... that is a plus now that I live in a southern climate and it can be 80* on Thanksgiving. My favorite way to cook a Thanksgiving turkey? Deep fried, of course. This year is was too cool to fry the turkey to keep the 3 gallons of oil at a high enough temperature to not have the oil absorbed so we opted for the roaster. Enjoy experimenting with this product! btw, shop around, I found the prices all over the place esp. around the holidays. Customer Rating: Summary: A necessary appliance Comment: I couldn't do without this product 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. More Reviews Rival 22 Qt Stainless Steel Roaster Oven. Fits up to a 22 Pound Turkey. Stainless Steel Roaster Oven Body. Removable Enamel-on-Steel Roasting Pan. Removable Steel Rack and Lid Rest. Choosing Appliance -> Mixer Pretty much the same thoughts as the food processor. High quality mixers are great for making bread or other tough jobs. Every kitchen should have one. Be sure that any mixer has all three attachments: paddle, dough hook, and whip. Also, find a spot on the counter where it can be easily accessed at a moment's notice. Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Dryer When shopping for a new clothes dryer, look for one with a moisture sensor that automatically shuts off the machine when your clothes are dry. Not only will this save energy, it will save wear and tear on your clothes caused by over-drying. Keep in mind that gas dryers are less expensive to operate than electric dryers. The cost of drying a typical load of laundry in an electric dryer is 30 to 40 cents compared to 15 to 25 cents in a gas dryer.
