Ah, the wonderful Nesco roaster oven...their guidelines are similar to what it would take if you put it in a conventional oven...To reheat probably 350 for 1/2 hour, but preheat the oven first, just like your home oven.
If you want to use it for food tomorrow, you need to burn it in tonight; 1 hour or longer at 400 degrees, outside but protected, to burn off the factory oils, etc. If you cook in it without doing this, you will ruin the food (and the atmosphere) with bad smells.
This turkey is really bigger than Rival recommends for this roaster, so check the size/fit tonight, also. You need an inch all around for best cooking.
I use 325, not 375 as the Rival manual suggests, 4 hours for an unstuffed 18 pounder.
Call the Rival customer care center (call the 800 information operator to get the number) and request a new cookbook and/or instruction manual. They will mail it to you.
I cannot recommend cooking a turkey in a crockpot for many reasons. I have always cooked turkeys at 200/225 degrees in the oven overnight. The secret is to seal the roaster with heavy duty foil with maybe a cup of water in the roaster, bake the bird upside down. Turn it over, increase the temperature, and uncover it for an hour before serving. Worked for me for 40 years, and the guests never complained.
