Water between insert and roasting pan in Nesco electric roaster?
Putting water BETWEEN THE BASE AND THE REMOVABLE PAN *is like putting water in your crock pot before inserting the porcelain dish and lid. This is dangerous and will destroy the unit. Those who answered "Yes" do not realize that the ? relates to putting water in the electric heating element portion of the pan... DANGEROUS!
Do I just plug it in and roast the turkey or do I
It doesn't hurt to put a couple of cups of water in the bottom of the roaster, but turn the turkey face down for the first few hours, then turn it right side up for the last hour. All of the juices that would drain to the back stay in the breast making it much more moist. I use a stainless steel dutch oven in the regular oven then uncover and flip in the last hour, and turn on the broiler in the last 10 minutes to crisp the skin. Let it sit for an hour and then carve. Set aside at least 5 hours for a 12-14 pound turkey to preheat, prep, cook, cool, and carve. Add another hour for a turkey in the 18-22 pound range. I usually hand rub the turkey with extra virgin olive oil and dust with black pepper, ground sage, thyme, and some onion and garlic powder. Cram an orange and lemon/lime into the cavity to add some interesting flavor to the bird if you are not stuffing.
Our roaster is not making any heat. It's a programmable 20 quart Rival roaster. We don't have the manual to know if we're doing something wrong
1. Place the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN into the ROASTER OVEN BODY.
2. Make sure that the TEMPERATURE CONTROL is in the OFF position, then plug cord into a 120 volt AC outlet.
3. Turn the roaster on by turning the TEMPERATURE CONTROL to the desired temperature.
4.Preheat for 15 to 20 minutes. (INDICATOR LIGHT will shut off when temperature is reached)
5. Place ROASTING RACK into the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN, put food on the RACK, and place the LID on the roaster oven.
NOTE: Some foods or recipes do not require the ROASTING RACK to be used.
6. When finished, turn the TEMPERATURE CONTROL to the OFF position and unplug roaster oven from outlet.
7. Remove
if it plugged and plugged to roaster and it still does not work move a known working plug. still does not work, there is no repair.
