home cooking, beginning the the 1930s. Yet, very few cooking
appliances can demonstrate that they are as up-to-date and
useful today as they were in the past. NESCO Roaster Ovens
have truly kept pace with cooking styles, preferences,
occasions and family sizes.
In a short time, you will see the many ways to use your
18-Qt. Roaster Oven. Its portability makes it a movable main
cooking appliance at some times, and a valued
supplementary appliance at other times. Use it at home on
your countertop in your kitchen (no more kitchen heat!)...or
in a covered patio, basement or garage...or away from home
in a cabin. Whenever you use your Roaster Oven, you can
prepare a wide range of favorite foods in different ways: baked,
slow cooked, roasted, steamed or poached. And serve your
foods buffet-style or at table-side, right in the Roaster Oven.
Moist and good tasting foods are yours because of NESCO's
®

difference the very first time you use the Roaster Oven.

escaping steam.
